The swivel chamber supplies the material from the
connection housing to the central body and the cylinder
unit. External solenoid valves supply compressed air to
the cylinder unit.
The material supply includes normally two channels,
one for the material supply, the other for the material
return. The return channel is in the front end of the
swivel housing. The two channels are separated by a
non-sealing distance ring.
When using the applicator for two different materials,
the supply and return channels are sealed off by using a
seal ring between the two channels.
If the applicator is used in an application without mate-
rial circulation, the two material channels are joined to
one, supplying material through all three channels in the
central body.

The compressed air is supplied through the channel at
the rear end of the swivel chamber.
At the front end of the swivel chamber a bearing
ensures that the swivel chamber is always in a centered
position on the central body.
The distance ring in front of the leakage hole is located
between the channels for material and air.
All sealings and distance rings are locked in place by
the retaining ring at the rear end of the swivel chamber.
The lock-ring in front of the swivel chamber keeps the
swivel chamber in position on the central body.
