 Palmer flow calibration tubes
are a cost effective, beneficial, foundry efficiency
tool.
Flow calibration tubes offer:
Advantages
- Eliminate the need
for scales, buckets, and gloves in calibration
- Calibrate continuous
mixers without wasting binder (zero loss system)
- Calibration
accomplished with one operator
- Measures actual
binder flow to the mixer in operation
- Calibration is
performed during the mold and core making process
eliminating lost production time due to calibration
- Entire procedure
takes less than 2 minutes
- Eliminates the
normal mess of calibration
- No operator contact
with resins
- Extremely accurate -
less chance of error
- Trial resin samples
are easily tested by using the flow calibration
tubes as a mini resin storage tank without changing
a single hose
Features
- Construction
materials compatible with foundry resin systems
- Heavy duty sight
glass gauge
- Ultra-high molecular
weight polyethylene end caps
- Brass ball valve
with Teflon seals for binders
- PVC ball valve with
Teflon seals for acid catalysts
- All connections are
either 1/2" or 3/4" NPT Standard Threads
- Sight glass easily
cleaned or replaced as needed
- Sight glass scale
calibrated in milliliters - 2% of full scale
accuracy
Sizing
The Flow Calibrator is
available in three sizes:
- 1/2 Liter
- 2 Liter
