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 (11") in diameter. An inert gas blanket protects adhesive from moisture to prevent premature curing.
