and equipment. Diamond Liners offers the Ratio Check precision<br />
monitoring system as a Epoxy customer Injection insurance policy against<br />
application errors.<br />

two-component epoxy-resin adhesive. Available<br />

The Ratio Check is ideal for high volume, high risk jobs and<br />
production operations. The compact system attaches directly to<br />
Graco Reactors and other plural-component pumps. The monitor<br />
checks the ratio of the flow of material. The Ratio Check shuts<br />
off the machine before an error becomes large enough to incur<br />
substantial corrective costs. When an off-ratio scenario is detected,<br />
it sounds an audible alarm accompanied by a red flashing light<br />
and immediately shuts down the pumps. The alarm also has an<br />
easy reset feature.<br />
The Ratio Check is completely installed next to the pump<br />
controls for customer convenience and runs on a 110-volt circuit.<br />
Continuous monitoring with LED readouts of all components<br />
helps to ensure early and accurate warnings against errors.<br />
Diamond Liners co-owner John Bender provides further benefits<br />
that customers can expect from using the product.<br />
“There never seems to be enough time to do a spray job right<br />
the first time. But we all will take the time to correct a failed job.<br />
The Ratio Check can save you time by stopping you before the<br />
failure,” he says.<br />
The newly renovated Diamond Liners e-commerce site allows<br />
customers more flexibility and options when it comes to purchasing<br />
manufacturing and foam insulation spray equipment, parts, safety,<br />
testing equipment and more. Graco Reactor and other pluralcomponent<br />
system owners should visit www.diamondliners.<br />
