DELO-DOT PN5 is a pneumatic jet valve that can reproduce dispensing results at a continuous frequency of up to 300 Hz, even on difficult media. It allows for contactless application, preventing collisions between the dispensing valve and the component. Even high-viscosity materials can be dispensed accurately, precisely, and reliably. The valve offers interchangeable nozzles with different diameters, as well as a flexible adjustable plunger stroke. This ensures that the application is reproducible using drop sizes of varying nanoliters. With its dimensions of 68 x 28 x 99.5 (W x D x H), DELO-DOT PN5 can be integrated into process systems to save space. The jet valve’s cartridge retainer, which can be positioned in 90° increments, allows media to be fed from all four sides of the device. This further simplifies integration into production systems.
If it is the case that DELO-DOT PN5 is too large to integrate, or that the lowest possible viscosity it can dispense is still too high for certain applications, DELO has developed an alternative solution in DELO-DOT PN5 LV. With ‘LV’ standing for ‘low viscosity,’ its key difference from its bigger brother is its ability to dispense low-to-medium-viscosity materials, ensuring consistent throughput. At 68 x 90 x 19 mm and weighing just 240 grams, it is both modular and extremely compact and lightweight, requiring little installation space in assembly lines. The nozzle and plunger are both removable without the need for tools thanks to its bayonet lock, which makes it easy to integrate disassemble for cleaning or parts replacement. And unlike needle dispensers, PN5 LV does not need Z-axis movement to contact the substrate to create a quality bondline with high reproducibility and no dripping, enabling continuous dispensing frequencies as high as 250 Hz and dispensing on complex geometries.
