Beaker Dosing
The Ahiba IR can be ordered with custom beaker lids that allow you to inject
liquid chemicals into the beakers during the dyeing process.
Dosing is done
using a self-refilling, manual dosing syringe, an optional accessory available with
the unit.
All dosing beakers are fitted with a dosing protector that diffuses the flow of the
liquor onto the substrate. This prevents the chemical from coming into direct
contact with the substrate.
Below are drawings of the installation of the dosing protector:

INFORMATION
When dosing a beaker, the liquid chemical being dosed should not come into
direct contact with the substrate. All dosing beakers are fitted with a dosing
protector, which diffuses the flow of the liquor onto the substrate. This prevents
the substrate from being directly contacted with the chemical.
Thoroughly rinse the injection nipples with warm water after each use. This
cleans the working parts, extends the life of the seals and prevents clogging due
to dried chemicals.
Self-Refilling Dosing Syringe
A self-refilling dosing syringe can be used with Ahiba IR.
