Graco E-Flo iQ Single Component Pump System Overview
The Graco E-Flo iQ Single Component System is a complete tank-to-tip dispensing solution designed for robotic applications of sealants and adhesives, including silicones, urethanes, epoxies, and thermal interface materials (TIMs). Featuring direct drum or pail metering, an electric servo-driven motor, and real-time pressure control, it ensures consistent, accurate dispensing without external metering devices. Its plug-and-play PLC integration and low-maintenance design make it a cost-effective choice for high-performance manufacturing. With adaptive flow adjustments and precise pressure monitoring, it delivers reliable results from start to finish.
For operations requiring continuous dispensing, explore the Graco E-Flo iQ Tandem System, which features two rams connected via a 3-way block with ball valves. Controlled by a single ADM, it automatically switches to the second ram when the first drum is empty, ensuring uninterrupted flow.
Ambient vs. Heated Configurations
- Ambient Option: Ideal for materials that maintain optimal viscosity at room temperature, requiring no additional heating.
- Heated Option: Designed for temperature-sensitive adhesives and sealants, maintaining consistent viscosity and flow in colder environments or high-performance applications.
E-Flo iQ System Features and Benefits
- Direct Drum Metering & Electric Servo Control: Eliminates external dosing systems while ensuring real-time flow rate adjustments for unmatched accuracy.
- Consistent Pressure Management: Integrated sensors monitor and maintain pressure stability from tank to tip for repeatable, high-quality dispensing.
- Versatile Dispensing Options: Supports heated (up to 158°F/70°C) and non-heated applications with multiple valve configurations, including low-flow iQ Valves and high-flow Axial Valves.
- User-Friendly Programming & Diagnostics: The Advanced Display Module (ADM) enables easy setup with up to 16 saved dispense styles and real-time diagnostic monitoring.
- Seamless PLC Integration: Connects effortlessly with EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, DeviceNet, and PROFIBUS for automated, high-precision control.
- Lower Cost of Ownership: Fewer components reduce maintenance and system complexity, while the lightweight hose and valve design minimizes robotic payload needs.
- Quiet & Efficient Operation: The electric servo-driven motor significantly lowers noise levels compared to traditional pneumatic systems for a safer, quieter workspace.
