Drop-In IPA Alcohol Doser
The PressMate AlcoMixer Dosing System is a compact, self-contained unit that is designed to monitor and control the level of Alcohol (Isopropyl Alcohol) in dampening system fount solutions used in the lithographic industry.
Designed for trouble-free operation the system has no moving parts and once set up these proven units deliver simple, accurate (within +/- 1%) and consistent levels of alcohol control in the fount solution from an external supply.
The Drop-In Unit can not only be fitted in MGE Dampening equipment but also fits many of the other manufacturers dampening systems as well either as a replacement to existing Alcohol control systems or as an addition \ enhancement to the Dampening Chiller.
Minor modifications to the Dampening Chiller are needed to ensure the unit is securely located in the circulator tank with power being provided either directly from the circulator or from another convenient source.
Fount Filtration
The PressMate FX-1 filtration system has been specifically designed to prolong the life of the fount solution by removing finer particles and contaminates using a 3-stage filter system. Click on FX-1 on the left for more information.
Results have shown that using this system has increased the life of the fount solution by up to 6 times, minimising chemical usage and greatly reducing waste disposal and its associated costs, meaning that systems often pay for themselves within a few months.
