Hi,
PACE offered good SNAP-VAC technology.
VAC pump performance (Q17) works great with SX-70, SX-80, SX-90, SX100, TP65 and others.
For dispensers, other characteristics of the compressor are required, taking into account the dependence of the dose volume, the viscosity of the dosing material and degree of filling of the cartridge.
Therefore, you see a diagram with all the components, allowing you to change the parameters for dose adjustments and ensure repeatability of the process.
When operating in TIMED mode, Q21 generates a short pneumatic pulse from the receiver, and the PD 1MOhm potentiometer (J32-14, J32-34) adjusts the time pneumatic pulse.
Q20 (p-n-p Darlington) has a short saturation time and high power dissipation and due to the U7C, U3C, U8D circuitry in a short time (SNAP) fills the receiver with air and continues to operate for 14 seconds, but with less performance if the pedal is released.
Let this technology have drawbacks, but with certain skills, it fully justifies itself.
