Graco Reactor(TM) E-Series sprays foam and polyurea with digitally controlled ratio assurance

MINNEAPOLIS - March 11, 2003 - Graco (NYSE: GGG) has developed the Reactor(TM) E-Series proportioner to meet exacting temperature and pressure control challenges when spraying plural components, including polyurethane foam and polyurea. Ideal for insulation and waterproofing applications, Reactor digital controls provide built-in diagnostics and ratio assurance that simplify operation. The system's lightweight design gives contractors unprecedented job-site mobility.

"Foam and polyurea have specific application requirements that are critical to coating application quality," said Brian Zumbolo, Graco worldwide product marketing manager, Protective Coatings Equipment. "Users expect consistent results whether they are spraying foam or polyurea coatings. We designed
the Reactor to meet the unique challenges of both coatings, which also gives users increased application flexibility."
