Precision Air Pressure Control for Extruded Tubing Applications

AC2 Rack Product Overview

The Model AC2 Rack uses the customer’s plant compressed air supply to provide a precision air pressure control for single lumen and multi-lumen tubing. With the AC2, pressure can be controlled and displayed in increments of 0.01 in-H2O. The AC2 is optimized for fast pressure response for the production of straight tubing and Bump and Taper tubing. Bump and Taper tubing control is included standard via analog or digital input. The AC2 Rack system allows for up to 16 Ports in each rack enclosure, controlled by a 10" Color Touchscreen.
