Series AD-31 Extrusion Hand-Held
Applicators
Description
Series AD-31 extrusion hand-held applicators are compact,
lightweight hand-held applicators that provide a wide range
of pattern capabilities. These durable hand-held applicators
combine efficient design and reliable performance for
manually dispensing hot melt adhesives, sealants and other
thermoplastic materials. A wide selection of models satisfies
a full range of applications.
Features
• Compact, lightweight design weighs 0.80 kilogram (1.75 lb) for
handling ease.
• Distinctive ever-cool handle provides comfortable operation and
helps reduce risk of burns by containing heated components and
adhesive-flow paths within the hand applicator body, not the
handle.
• Impact-resistant molded shell extends service life.
• A 360° swivel connector eliminates hose twisting.
• Hand-held applicators employ either a preset thermostatic
temperature sensor or a RTD (resistance temperature detector)
sensor. RTD sensing provides temperature control precision by
reducing temperature fluctuations that negatively affect flow and
cause char formation.
• Choice of standard and extended nozzles with varying orifice
diameters meets numerous deposition requirements.
• Hand-held applicators accommodate broad range of Nordson
melters and hose diameters.
AD-31 Hand-Held Applicator with DuraBraid Hose
• The AD-31 LBS uses a large ball-and-seat and larger
flow paths for handling high-viscosity or filled
materials.
• Models used with gear-pump drum melters have a
microswitch in the hand applicator handle to control
the motor clutch and regulate adhesive flow.
