The LOCTITE RC30 Manual Reservoir is a fully pneumatic, compact adhesive feed module designed for manual workstations or bench-top setups. It serves as the adhesive supply system when paired with dispensing valves and controllers, accommodating LOCTITE adhesives such as anaerobics, cyanoacrylates and UV/visible cure formulas. Featuring a low-level sensor and a 0–7 bar (0–100 psi) pressure regulator, it supports various package sizes including 250 mL bottles, 500 g jars, 1 L, 2 kg containers and 200 g squeeze tubes.
The reservoir helps maintain consistent adhesive supply, reduces downtime through low-level alerts, and is ideal for manual or semi-automated dispensing stations.
Основные характеристики и преимущества
-
Built-in low-level sensor for process control and prevention of air ingress.
-
Manual pneumatic pressure regulator 0-7 bar (0-100 psi) provides stable feed to dispense valves.
-
Accommodates multiple adhesive pack sizes (250 mL, 500 g, 1 L, 2 kg, 200 g squeeze) making it versatile for production or repair environments.
-
Table-top footprint, integrates directly with LOCTITE valves/controllers for simpler setup and lower cost.
-
Suitable for a wide range of adhesives: anaerobic, cyanoacrylate and UV/visible cure – supporting broad manufacturing needs.
Применение
-
Setup & Surface: Place the RC30 on a stable bench or workstation. Connect a clean, dry compressed air supply (within 0-7 bar) and ensure piping is suitably sized.
-
Load Adhesive Package: Insert the adhesive container (supported size) into the bottle holder, connect feed tubing, clamp the lid, and ensure the anti-bubbler fitting is installed.
-
Pressure Regulation: Use the front-panel regulator to set feed pressure appropriate for the adhesive type and the attached dispense valve.
-
Integration With Valve: Connect the reservoir outlet tubing to a LOCTITE dispense valve and, if applicable, a controller unit. The reservoir supplies the adhesive; dispensing control is via the valve/controller.
-
Operation & Monitoring: The low-level sensor will signal when adhesive is low—replace container before air enters the system to avoid curing in lines.
-
Техническое обслуживание: De-pressurize the system before changing containers. Clean the reservoir lid, anti-bubbler kit and feed lines periodically.
Наконечник: Use minimum effective pressure and keep feed tubing as short and straight as possible to maintain consistent dispense results.
Часто задаваемые вопросы
Q1: Which adhesive pack sizes can the RC30 handle?
A1: It supports 250 mL bottles, 500 g jars, 1 L bottles, 2 kg containers and 200 g squeeze tubes.
Q2: Does the reservoir include a dispense controller or valve?
A2: No – the RC30 is the reservoir/feed module only. A separate dispense valve and controller are required to actuate adhesive deposits.
Q3: What air pressure is required for operation?
A3: Clean, dry air up to 7 bar (0-100 psi) is required to pressurize the reservoir.
Q4: Can it be used for automated dispensing systems?
A4: It is primarily designed for manual or bench-top setups but may be incorporated into semi-automated systems when paired with appropriate valves/controllers.
Q5: How important is the low-level sensor?
A5: Very – the low-level sensor avoids air ingress into the dispensing system, which can cause quality issues or curing in lines.
