Mold Temperature Regulator
The mold Temperature Regulator controls mold cooling water temperature between 80°F and 120°F (27°C to 49°C) to maintain a steady mold temperature.
Installed to control water flow exiting an injection mold, the Mold Temperature Regulator quietly recovers waste heat from the resin shot, working without electricity to reduce shop floor clutter and cut production costs. In many cases, it is a simple, inexpensive substitute for a conventional electric mold heater.
Product Overview
Applications
The Mold Temperature Regulator is suitable for installation to control a single cooling circuit in an injection molding operation that may need separate control from other circuits in the same tool.
The Mold Temperature Regulator is generally suitable for mold applications where the supply water is cooler than the mold and where the resin shot size is sufficient to heat the mold in the first few shots.
Control Feed Throat Condensation by installing a Mold Temperature Regulator in the barrel cooling loop. Set the dial once on the MTR and allow it to maintain temperature and eliminate condensation in the resin.

Details
Molder Benefits
Low Cost of Ownership
Uses no electricity to operate. May replace conventional mold heater in applications within operating parameters.
Versatile
Control one or multiple zones using an optional inlet manifold or several individual regulators.
Stable Operation
Uses the thermal expansion principle for operation, ignoring incoming water temperature or operating pressure.
Small Size
Cleans up floor clutter - no hoses or power cords to cause trip hazards.
Verifiable
The integral dial thermometer verifies the set point temperature visually.
In-Line Mounting
Installs easily without additional hardware.
