Simplifying use of
PUR adhesives
The new PURBlue EC melters from
Nordson Corporation simplify use
of reactive polyurethane (PUR)
adhesives.
A unique ‘easy-to-clean’ design
makes clean-up and maintenance
quick and effortless.
Efficient operation and
maintenance helps increase
productivity and reduce waste.
Melter components in contact with
PUR adhesive, including tank, grid,
reservoir and pump block, can be
easily dismantled for cleaning.
To further simplify maintenance,
PURBlue EC melters feature
pump shut-off valves and quick-
disconnect heater and sensor
cables.
Daily operation is also easy with
user-friendly controls, week/day
timer and I/O interfaces.
The tank accommodates 18kg
(39.68lb) adhesive slugs measuring
280mm (11in) in diameter.
An inert gas blanket protects
adhesive from moisture to prevent
premature curing.
