 Blank
Melt Bolts
Blank Melt Bolts are used to close or block existing
melt temperature or pressure vents, where pressure
transducers or temperature thermocouples are no
longer being used. Available in 316 stainless in
various lengths these blank bolts are rated for
pressures in excess of 15,000 PSI. |

 Melt
Pressure Transducers
Melt Pressure Transducers are highly accurate devices,
that ensure a very high degree of stability and
repeatability when measuring Extruder Melt Pressure.
Melt Pressure Transducers are available in a variety
of ranges from 0 to 20,000 PSI and have overload
pressure capabilities of twice the rated pressure
range. They are high temperature devices that withstand
750ºF (400ºC) and are available with built in thermocouples,
or with 18" of flex armour cables.
Melt Pressure Transducers are also available in
EXPLOSION PROOF construction to meet CLASS I, DIVISION
I, Group B, C, and D. Made of Stainless Steel they
have an industrial standard 1/2 - 20 UNF thread
along with a hex nut that facilitates installation
and removal. Melt Pressure Transducers work on strain
gauge principles and have the following. |

 Melt
Temperature Thermocouple
Melt Temperature Thermocouples are temperature sensors
that are used in extruders where plastic melt temperatures
need to be measured. Melt Temperature Thermocouples
are ruggedly manufactured in 316 Stainless steel
with flexible armour construction along with a high
temperature plug. Various tip and body sizes ensure
direct replacement of preexisting temperature probes.
Melt Temperature Thermocouplesstandard sizes are
6" stem length with 12" of flex armour.
Longer lengths of bolt sizes and leads are also
available. Normal thread size is a 1/2-20 UNF in
a type J or K Thermocouple calibration. |

 Rupture
Disc
Pressure sensitive Rupture Discs are used as over
pressure protectors, when normal running pressures
are exceeded. Rupture Discs are made of stainless
steel and fit most extruders that have melt pressure
or melt thermocouple vents on the barrel.
Rupture Discs are a safety device that release pressure,
should they exceed the pressure that they are manufactured
to collapse at. Rupture Discs typical burst pressures
are 4000, 4500, 5000, 6500, 7500, and 9500. Normal
stem lengths are, 3" and 6" with 1/2-
20 UNF threads and a hex bolt for installation and
removal. |
