Sulzer Mixpac USA Inc. has announced the availability of MIXPAC^TM MixCoat^TM Manual – a cartridge-based two-component dispensing system. This protective coating dispensing system features a lightweight design with a unique brush assembly on a manual dispenser, which helps increase stripe coating productivity and speed. The system is suitable for repairs and rope work in petrochemical applications.

MixCoat Manual offers efficient, clean and cost-optimised repair work with less waste. It does not require pre-mixing or metering of components. The cartridge-based system features high mixing performance and improved ratio control, without the need for mixing equipment. With this system, components are kept separate until forced through the static mixer, which minimises waste from unused coating. Users no longer need to worry about pot life. Cartridges are available for 1:1, 2:1, 3:1 and 4:1 ratios, ranging from 1500 mL to 940 mL.

The manual system is efficient, with only one quick squeeze on the trigger needed to start the flow to the brush. The closed loop system prevents the introduction of contaminants into the paint. Its lightweight ergonomic design includes a shoulder strap, enabling workers to have a free hand when performing rope work or for touch up teams working on the side of offshore oil rigs.
