The A460 incorporates HERO’s patented High Flow (HF) Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP) dispensing technology. This innovative and revolutionary pump design allows HERO to offer the first truly low maintenance automatic colorant dispenser, combined with the high speed throughput required by busy operations. In fact, we believe it offers the lowest cost of ownership available on the market today. The A460 incorporates this PCP technology into its unique cartridge design pump which allows for quick, clean and simple replacement. In addition, the A460 further reduces yearly maintenance costs as it does not suffer calibration drift like other competing technologies.

Thanks to this technology’s ability to reverse the flow of colorant through the pump, HERO has also solved the problem of colorant drying in the nozzle. This feature is referred to as pull back. At the end of each dispense, the pump reverses rotation “pulling” back the colorant inside the nozzles. This minimizes contact of colorant with air.

The A460 dispenses up to four colorants simultaneously and offers precision unmatched by its rivals. On average dispenses, the accuracy is within +/-1%, even at a speed of 80 ounces per minute. Yes, this unit is so precise it can be used to tint sample color testers!
