Cleaning the Jet
4.1
Cleaning the Exterior of the Jet
To clean the exterior of the jet, use a soft cotton or cellulose cloth. If the jet exterior is
extremely dirty, a small amount of alcohol can be used.
To avoid personal injury, move the nozzle
close to the paper so there is minimal
misting of the solvent during flushing. Be
sure there is proper ventilation and wear
appropriate eye and skin protection as
instructed by the solvent manufacturer.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the jet:
Do not use a
dripping wet cloth or pour solvents, alcohol, water, or
other liquids directly on the jet.
Do not submerge the jet in the cleaning agent.

Cleaning the Interior of the Jet
The Advanjet HV-2100 is a high precision jet for dispensing minute amounts of fluid.
Dispensing nozzles can become blocked or clogged by the smallest contaminates,
which will adversely affect dispensing results.
These are symptoms of a contaminated jet:
Unclean or uneven dispensing
Drops become irregular or vary in size
Residual flow or drooling out of the tip when the jet is in the closed position
Interrupted dispensing (places where fluid no longer is dispensed)
Splatter or satellites
The importance of clean jetting is a key design element of the HV-2100, resulting in a jet
that is quick and easy to clean. Following these simple cleaning steps will optimize
jetting quality and maximize productivity.
