REX manual metering valve

Manual Precise Dosing

The valve opens pneumatically when the operator presses a button on the handle. Simultaneously, the vacuum filler starts the preset portioning cycle.

This allows the operator to independently select the moment of product delivery, while the portion volume is controlled by the REX vacuum filler system.

Working with products of various consistencies

The dosing valve is designed for a wide range of food masses - From thin to viscous products.

The catalog clearly states its use for:

• pates;
• sauces;
• soups and sugo;
• creams and ice cream;
• sandwich spreads;
• minced meat.

The manufacturer's modern website additionally characterizes the device as suitable for liquid, pasty, and products containing inclusions.

High portion accuracy

Dosing is performed in conjunction with the REX vacuum syringe, which allows for obtaining portions of a given mass.

Various outlet nozzles help adapt the valve to a specific product and process task. The design is designed to complete the delivery without unwanted product leakage.

Quick connection

The dosing mass is supplied to the manual valve through a 2 m long hose.

The electrical connection is made via a vacuum syringe, so a separate power supply unit for the valve is not required.

Pneumatic control

According to the technical table of the catalog:

• Drive type - pneumatic;
• Working pressure - 4-6 bar.

Performance

The original catalog does not specify a specific operating speed. The current official REX website states for the manual dosing device:

• Serving size: from 5 g;
• Performance: up to 60 cycles/min.

Actual speed depends on product, portion size, and operator input.

Ergonomic Operation

As an option, the valve can be equipped with a spring balancer, which supports the device from above and reduces the strain on the operator's hand during prolonged operation.
