The Shamrock ShurShooter Dry Lubricant Applicator is designed for use with most dry or powdered plunger tip lubricants. It works efficiently and effectively with virtually any size of particle up to .130" diameter. The lubricant is placed into the large reservoir and upon initiation from the die casting machine, the ShurShooter dispenses a precise amount of lubricant into the delivery tube. A low pressure air stream then delivers the lubricant to the shot well. When the initiation signal is removed from the dispenser, the metering valve returns to it's initial position and receives the next dose of lubricant. Positive air pressure is maintained on the delivery tube to keep smoke and other contaminants from entering the tube. The dispensed volume is dependent upon the size of the metering valve piston orifice. This opening is varied by loosening the locking wing nut, turning the piston clockwise to reduce, or counter-clockwise to increase the volume, then tightening the wing nut. The metering valve is constructed of non- stick materials which prevent build-up and subsequent clogging of the valve. An integrated cold plate cools the reservoir and allows material to flow regardless of ambient temperature. A manual shut-off valve allows removal of the metering valve without emptying the reservoir.
Unique Design Features:
Easily adjustable lube amount - Adjust between 0.358 Cu In (5.867 cc) and 0.00 Cu In (0.0 cc) with simple screw adjustment. (Minimum setting dependent upon particle size)
Integral Reservoir Cooling - Keeps product flowing on the hottest days.
Non-Stick metering valve eliminates "lock-ups".
Manual shut-off valve prevents leakage during maintenance.
Sight glass quickly indicates level in reservoir.
Large capacity reservoir - Holds two gallons.
Adjustable air purge – Keeps delivery tube clean and cool.
Smart design - Requires only one signal from the die cast machine to energize a single solenoid valve.
Auto-Close reservoir - Keeps lid closed to prevent contamination.
Separate pressure regulators for main, delivery, and purge air pressures.
Push-Lock air hoses ease maintenance.
No seals to replace in the metering valve.
Compact and lightweight.
