A new gauge helps operators monitor air pressure on the Eco-Pro 360.
Eco-Pro 360 This iD Additives preventive-maintenance system cleans, protects and helps prevent rust and limescale buildup within the cooling passages and water lines of injection molds, heat exchangers and chill rolls. The unit, available in two sizes, combines a pump and filter to remove contaminants from the cleaning solution so it can be reused.
What’s new? Stainless steel fittings that are more durable than the original plastic fittings, and a pressure regulator so the operator can keep the air pressure going to the pump below 100 pounds per square inch.
Benefits Improved operator safety, as overpressurization can lead to burst tubes.
