In this Fix-It Friday video, we review multiple types of Y-Filters and the respective screens. PMC, Graco, and Gusmer proportioners and reactors can be challenging to understand for a beginner. Even for the experienced applicator, maintenance and repairs can be overwhelming.
This video, titled “Replacing and Cleaning Proportioner Y Filter Screens,” explores the makeup of Y-Filters – which can be found on any major proportioner or reactor. Y-Filters are designed to prevent contaminants from entering the material.
