PVA Spray Valve - Extended Spray, With Micrometer
PVA FCS300-ES — Extended Spray Valve with Micrometer
The PVA FCS300-ES is an extended spray valve with integrated micrometer flow control, designed for precision atomized spray dispensing of conformal coatings, fluxes, adhesives, and other low-to-medium viscosity fluids. The extended nozzle geometry provides improved reach into tight board areas and recessed components, while the micrometer adjustment allows operators to dial in repeatable, consistent fluid flow rates for process-controlled coating applications. Compatible with PVA selective coating and dispensing systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the FCS300-ES and a standard FCS300 spray valve?
The FCS300-ES features an extended nozzle compared to the standard FCS300. The extended geometry provides greater reach for coating under low-clearance components, into board recesses, and around tall components that would otherwise block spray access. Both valves use the same micrometer flow control and are compatible with PVA selective coating systems.
What fluids can the FCS300-ES spray?
The FCS300-ES is designed for conformal coatings (acrylic, urethane, silicone, epoxy), fluxes, and other low-to-medium viscosity fluids used in electronics assembly. Contact PVA or MTE Solutions to confirm compatibility with specific fluid formulations before use.
How does the micrometer flow control work?
The micrometer adjustment on the FCS300-ES allows operators to set a precise, repeatable fluid flow rate by turning the micrometer to a calibrated position. This enables consistent coating thickness across production runs and simplifies process changeovers when switching between fluid types or coating programs.
What PVA systems is the FCS300-ES compatible with?
The FCS300-ES is compatible with PVA selective coating and dispensing systems that accept the FCS300 valve series. Contact MTE Solutions to confirm compatibility with your specific PVA system model before ordering.
Is the FCS300-ES sold individually or as part of a kit?
The FCS300-ES is sold as an individual spray valve. Nozzles, needles, and other consumables are sold separately. Contact MTE Solutions for current pricing, availability, and compatible accessories.
