If you are running a robotic welding cell, you know that the reamer station is the unsung hero of your operation. It keeps your MIG gun nozzles clean and free of spatter, ensuring that the arc starts smoothly every time. However, when the anti-spatter sprayer stops working correctly, things can go south quickly. Spatter builds up, gas flow gets disrupted, and you end up with downtime to change out clogged nozzles. Often, the culprit for a sprayer that won't prime or sprays weakly is a small, inexpensive part: the check valve.
The Tregaskiss TS-500-20 Sprayer Check Valve is the direct replacement for the valve found in your TOUGH GARD Spatter Cleaner. Its job is simple but vital: it keeps the anti-spatter fluid right at the spray head, ready to go. If this valve fails, the fluid drains back into the tank between cycles. This means the next time the robot comes in for a clean, it gets a blast of air instead of the protective coating it needs. Replacing this valve is a quick fix that restores the "instant-on" spray performance your system was designed for.
Don't let a five-dollar problem cause a five-hundred-dollar shutdown. Keeping a spare TS-500-20 on hand is smart maintenance. It installs easily into the existing sprayer line and is built to handle the harsh environment of a weld cell. Whether you are troubleshooting a sprayer that is spitting and sputtering or just performing an annual overhaul of your reamer station, this genuine Tregaskiss part is the reliable choice to get your automation back to peak efficiency.
Signs that your check valve might be bad include air bubbles in the fluid line, fluid draining back towards the reservoir overnight, or a sprayer that takes two or three pulses to actually dispense fluid. Swapping out the old valve for a new TS-500-20 is straightforward and ensures your anti-spatter compound is atomized correctly, coating the nozzle interior thoroughly for maximum protection against spatter adhesion.
