For Reactor proportioners.

• New multi-strand copper heating element has greatly increased hose quality:

  • Provides 10-times* the flex life compared to previous flat copper heating element
  • Long-term, even heating without hot spots
  • Backwards compatible with existing Reactor heated hoses

• New Xtreme-Wrap Scuff Guard

  • Form fitting to the hose, no more baggy excess material
  • Made from urethane coated ballistic nylon for puncture and tear resistance, abrasion protection, and oil and water resistance
  • Sheds surface moisture and won't absorb water to weigh down the hose bundle; will not freeze solid in cold temperatures
  • Hook and Loop enclosure used on the entire length of the hose for easy access to the hoses, fittings, and fluid temperature sensors

• Joint Protectors

  • Joint Protectors provide additional protection at the most vulnerable section of the hose: the electrical connections, hose fittings and fluid temperature sensors. All 15 m (50 ft) hoses with the new Xtreme-Wrap will come with one Joint Protector.
• Copper-heated hoses are designed specifically for use with Graco proportioners
• Covered with proprietary butyl cover for protection against moisture-sensitive isocyanate
• Hoses are covered with foam insulation for heat retention
• Different fitting sizes on the isocyanate and resin hoses prevent accidentally connecting the wrong hoses together
• Hoses use custom designed splice kit to electrically connect hoses without having to run copper under the fittings
• Helix-design whip hose uses braided copper wires for added flexibility and longer life

• Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD)

  • Graco’s latest advanced controls on Reactor 2 and Integrated Reactor utilise RTD technology. RTDs offer the highest accuracy and the best day-to-day repeatability of material temperatures in your hose. RTD technology allows the machine to automatically shut down if the sensor is damaged, which saves wasted time and materials.
