It’s important to check the fluid level in an E-Coat system anolyte tank on a regular basis. Problems such as torn membranes or blockages can cause anolyte to leak into the paint bath. Insufficient flow can cause performance issues – bacteria and excess acid inside the membrane shell – and ultimately shorten the life of the cells.
We recommend using a flow indicator/valve assembly to connect between the supply manifold and supply tubing. The UFS Flowmeter is calibrated to show an ideal flow range of 0.4 – 0.9 gallons per minute. 24/7 motion of anolyte promotes better cooling to extend anode life and expel the oxygen that can cause corrosion.
