Optimum 21 DISPENSING COMPONENTS Precision-fit adapter for easy, safe attachment Channeled wiper piston eliminates trapped air, waste and dripping Uniform barrel wall thickness for safety 0º taper barrels for smooth top-to-bottom piston travel Threaded tip hubs for safe, secure attachment Consistent color coding and tip diameters, regardless of style/length Tips are free of burrs and flash that could obstruct fluid flow Optimum ® The standard in fluid dispensing What makes EFD’s Optimum dispensing components better than the rest? Engineered Fluid Dispensing ™ . Each patent pending component has been designed as part of a complete, integrated system that improves yields and reduces costs by producing the most accurate, repeatable fluid deposits possible. Our syringe barrels are made of a new, proprietary polypropylene blend that delivers exceptional clarity and dimensional stability. The unique internal design enhances fluid flow and minimizes turbulence and shear during filling and dispensing. Matching pistons are available in five styles to ensure control for virtually any fluid in any application. When fluid is dispensed, the close tolerance wiping action eliminates waste and residue. Syringe barrel adapters have a new design that facilitates installation/ removal, and a positive safety locking action that prevents accidental disengagement. New tip caps protect fluid with a precisely engineered venting system that prevents air from entering through the luer during installation. The gripping action of the tip cap is designed to maximize the seal and yet be easily removed by the user. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION All EFD disposable components, including syringe barrels, cartridges, pistons, tip caps, end caps, and dispense tips, are precision engineered for one-time use. Attempting to clean and re-use components will compromise dispensing accuracy and may increase the risk of personal injury. Always wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing suitable for your dispensing application. Do not exceed maximum operating pressure of 100 psi (7.0kg/cm2). Do not heat syringe barrels or cartridges to a temperature greater than 38°C (100°F). Dispose of components according to local regulations after one-time use. Do not clean components with strong solvents (e.g. MEK, Acetone, THF). Cartridge retainer systems and barrel loaders should be cleaned with mild detergents only. To prevent fluid waste, use EFD SmoothFlow ™ pistons. www.nordsonefd.com info@nordsonefd.com USA & Canada 800-556-3484 Europe +44 (0) 1582 666334 Asia +86 (21) 3866 9006
