- Typical melt tank capacity
- For this class of equipment, melt tanks commonly range from 4 to 10 litres, though larger external storage tanks like the 120 ltr unit mentioned can supplement this.
- Power supply
- Units of this type typically operate on 230V or 400V three-phase power, with specific amperage requirements varying by heater wattage.
- Number of hoses/guns
- Nordson ProBlue systems are often configured with 2 to 4 heated hoses and dispensing guns, as seen with this unit's two hoses and guns.
- Operating temperature range
- Hot melt systems typically operate with adhesive temperatures between 150°C and 200°C, depending on the specific adhesive used.
- Adhesive type
- These systems are designed for use with various hot melt adhesives, commonly in pellet or pillow form, fed into the melt tank.
- Throughput
- Throughput is highly dependent on the application and adhesive dispense pattern, but these systems are built for continuous, high-speed operation.
