Pressure Pots, Reservoirs for Dispensing
About Pressure Pots, Reservoirs for Dispensing
IDM Pressure Pots are reservoir tanks used for dispensing adhesives, coatings and other liquids. Typically, the liquid (in its normal container or bottle) is placed inside the pressure pot, a dip tube is introduced into the liquid, and the system is closed and pressurised. The liquid is forced by the pressure out of the reservoir to a dispensing valve or other applicator.
Some of our pressure pots are supplied with material feed tubing to get you started. We recommend using natural PE tubing for cyanoacrylate adhesives. The black PE tubing is suitable for UV sensitive materials.
Features & Benefits
- Allows dispensing from bulk, bottles or other containers
- Integral safety pressure release valves
- Disposable material paths for ease of use and reduced maintenance
- Suitable for a wide range of low to medium viscosity liquids
Specifications
IDM PP500

This pressure fluid reservoir is capable of supplying low viscosity liquids packaged in industry-standard bottles for dispensing. It takes fluids in up to 500g bottle sizes. Suitable for cyanoacrylate adhesives (CAs), solvents, anaerobic adhesives, UV adhesives & other low viscosity liquids. When used in conjunction with a valve such as the IDM HDV130 Handheld Diaphragm Valve or IJF 700PTPCW Dispensing Pen, the IDM PP500 Pressure Pot provides flexibility and controls the amount of material delivered.

Directions for Use
- Ensure you are wearing correct PPE. Consult with the safety data sheet for your material.
- Remove the threaded thumbscrews and lift off the reservoir’s lid.
- Place an open bottle of liquid in the centre of the reservoir.
- Return the lid to the top of the reservoir whilst assuring that the dip tube is positioned inside the bottle of liquid.
- Tighten thumbscrews evenly.
- Ensure the regulator is fully closed before connecting the air line.
- Connect all material and air lines supplying pressure to the reservoir.
- Slowly increase pressure by gently opening the regulator until desired material flow is reached.
- Don’t forget to depressurise the pot after use by gently loosening the air release valve.
