Feature-rich dispenser and controller for industrial fluids

4 May 2005 Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services

OK International has introduced a new mid-range series of feature-rich Techcon Systems' Digital Dispenser/Controllers. The microprocessor-driven, digital-timer DX-300 Series, dispenses precise fluid profiles in an accurate, consistent and repeatable manner, it claims.

This new series is comprised of the DX-300 and the DX-315. The DX-300, with an operating pressure of 0-6,9 bar, is designed for general fluid dispensing and to control a variety of dispensing valves such as the Techcon TS56200 Series Diaphragm Valve or the economical Techcon TS1212 Pinch Tube Valve. The DX-315, with an operating pressure of 0-1 bar, is designed for low viscosity fluid dispensing. Aside from having different air pressure settings and valve-controlling capability, DX-300 and DX-315 are identical in form, fit and function.

Each system is packaged for immediate, out-of-box use, with sample tips, barrels and syringe adapters. To provide accurate, consistent, precise and repeatable dispensing of a wide range of fluid profiles, the DX-300 Series features 10 programmable memories for storing and recalling the most frequently used dispensing cycle timing.

This memory feature records the time of the dispensing cycle and is helpful for determining the dispensing time required, when dispensing output is unknown. The memory feature also works in conjunction with the built-in 'Teach Mode.' And, to control material 'tailing' and waste, the DX-300 Series has, as standard, an adjustable vacuum and a vacuum-driven 'suck-back' feature, monitored by a built-in vacuum gauge.

According to the company, the DX-300 Series is designed and manufactured to be affordable, durable, reliable, serviceable, user-friendly and workspace-saving. With a small 152 x 165 x 178 mm footprint and a unique locking mechanism, DX-300 Series can be stacked and fastened on top of each other conserving working space. The DX-300 has a full shot time range of 0,008 to 99,999 seconds in 1 ms increments and is operational from an AC supply 'worldwide' of 100-240 V a.c., 50-60 Hz.
