Valves for precise thin-film fluid
deposit sprays
New Techcon stainless steel valves spray a fine mist of low-viscosity materials, such as conformal coating, solvent, oil or grease, precisely and consistently for thin-film fluid deposits
Techcon Systems, an OK International brand and leading provider of bench-top fluid dispensing solutions, introduces two new stainless steel valves to the TS5500 Series Spray Valve family The TS5540 and the TS5540F spray fine mist of low-viscosity materials such as conformal coating, solvent, oil and grease precisely and consistently for thin-film fluid deposits

The TS5540 and TS5540F come with a variety of nozzle/cap configurations for spraying different fluid deposit patterns and sizes.
The TS5540 three cone-shaped nozzles/caps are for spraying three sizes of circular-shaped deposits.
The TS5540F three fan-shaped nozzles/caps are for spraying three sizes of elliptical-shaped deposits.
Both valves have a 70 psi (4.8 bar) activation pressure and handle fluid pressure at a maximum of 100 psi (6.9 bar).
Apart from having different size and shape nozzle/cap, TS5540 and TS5540F are identical in their main valve body build.
The TS5540 and TS5540F have a smooth fluid path that reduces turbulent flow and air entrapment ensuring consistent, precise and repeatable spraying.
In addition, they feature an external stroke control that adjusts for different fluid flow and provides an extremely fast, positive shut-off.
With rugged construction, a field-replaceable Delrin seat and a field-replaceable seal, the TS5540 and TS5540F have a very long life cycle and are extremely service friendly.
The stainless steel body exterior, fluid housing and air cylinder make these valves compatible with a wide range of aggressive and non-aggressive industrial chemicals.
The TS5540 and TS5540F compact design and easy-mount threaded holes allow them to be easily integrated into automated applications.
