SPARE PARTS
Although Husky maintains a vast inventory of standard hot runner components, non-standard components are not kept
in stock. It is recommended that spares of specific wear items and non-standard components be ordered alo ng with the
system to ensure that these are immediately available when required.
Since the molding requirements of each application vary, contact Husky for recommended spare part packages.
VALVE GATE AIR KIT
To ensure optimum valve stem actuation, Husky recommends that all valve gate hot runner systems be equipped with a
valve gate air kit. This kit includes a filter and oil separator (#1), exhaust silencers (#2 and #5), a solenoid valve (#3 specify 24V DC or 110V AC) and quick exhaust valves (#4), as well as all fittings and hoses required for installation.

ELECTICAL CONNECTORS
Introduction
Electrical connectors are
supplied with complete hot
runner systems. Husky can
supply three configurations
of electrical connectors: 24
pin, 25 pin and 32 pin. The
majority of Pronto™
manifolds use two 24 pin
connectors or alternately a
25 pin and a 24 pin
connectors in combination.
Eight drop manifolds with
four manifold zones require
two 32 pin connectors. The
installation geometry for
each connector is shown at
right.

Accessories
LOCATING RING
The locating ring performs two basic functions:
• Provides alignment of the hot runner to the injection molding machine.
• Prevents resin drool from entering the hot runner manifold pocket.
The locating ring type used for a particular application depends upon: the machine platen locating hole diameter, and
backing plate thickness.

TOOLS
The use of standard Husky hot runner tools simplifies maintenance and reduces the likelihood of component damage.
Contact Husky to order any of the tools in this section.
Valve Stem Removal Tool (VG/VX)
To ensure the valve stems are pulled straig ht
during removal, the valve stem removal tool is
recommended. Tools are selected based on valve
stem length and cylinder size.
