Flow Calibration
Tools
Recently acquired by
Palmer, the EAGLE line of flow calibration tubes
adds one more cost effective, beneficial foundry
efficiency tool to the arsenal that Palmer brings to
the table. 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
- Site glass easily
cleaned or replaced as needed
- Site glass scale
calibrated in milliliters - 2% of full scale
accuracy
Sizing
The Flow Calibrator
is available in three sizes:
- 1/2 Liter
