Filling Procedure for Pourable
Low and Medium Viscosity Fluids
If the fluid you are dispensing is pourable, take the syringe barrel, twist on tip cap and pour your
fluid in. Insert a white SmoothFlow piston and carefully press down until it contacts the fluid. The
syringe barrel is now ready for use.
Filling Procedure for Thick Fluids
If your fluid is thick or non-leveling, you can spoon it into the syringe barrel with a spatula. Or, if the
fluid comes packed in a 1/10 gallon (300 ml) cartridge, try loading the barrel with a caulking gun.
Then, press the SmoothFlow piston to move the fluid to the bottom of the syringe barrel and remove
trapped air.
Trapped air in thick fluids can lead to drooling and oozing. Also, repetitive air cycles can bore
tunnels through non-leveling fluids, causing spitting and inconsistent deposits. The SmoothFlow
piston eliminates these problems. It prevents tunneling by providing a barrier to the pulsed-air
cycles. And it prevents oozing by responding to the pressure of trapped air with a slight suck-back
movement after the dispense cycle.
