Reduce VOC Emissions and Costs

The RETOX RTO also has an integral heat exchanger bypass system that allows for operation from 0 to 25 percent LEL (lower explosive limit) solvent loadings. This is helpful since the printer does a wide range of custom short- and long-run gravure printing at various color coverages.

Each RETOX includes PLC-based controls with online remote telemetry diagnostics that allows 24/7 technical service support if needed. Swinehart claims that the RTOs have required very little maintenance, just an occasional thermocouple change, lubrication of the main fan motors, and assurrance that the compressed air supply is dry in the winter.
