Use in accordance with specifications
The Palamat Premium polymerization unit is a laboratory unit for polymerizing cold- and hot-curing resins for dental applications.
The functional design of the unit is specifically matched with processing methods of cold-and hot-curing resins.
The polymerization is performed at an operating pressure of 2 bars which is calibrated by an integrated pressure reduction
valve. A pressure gauge on the operating panel shows the nominal pressure after pressurization. At a pressure of more than
2.8 bars within the pressure pot the safety valve opens automatically.
