Agfa Ink Pump
Lavaink provides all kinds of Agfa Ink pump use 24 Voltage 3 watts Agfa Ink pump. Why do not use much stronger power uv pump like 7 watts? because this uv pump will directly pump uv ink to Agfa uv printhead. And uv printhead is very sensitive electric parts. High pressure will damage the printhead. That’s why all uv ink pump choose 24 v 3 watts. Not use 24 v 7 watts strong power uv ink pump for uv ink line.
How to test Agfa ink pump works or not?
Just push ink pump button at Agfa printer ink bottle area and check if there is ink come out after ink pump. If there is no ink come out after ink pump and then you should check your ink pump first and then ink line before agfa ink pump. Agfa ink bottle clogged can cause agfa ink pump failed to pump ink to ink reservoir.
How printer know when Agfa Ink Pump to uv ink reservoir?
All uv printer has the same ink line system design including Afga UV printer. There is an ink level sensor inside the Metal UV Sub Ink Tank and this ink level sensor will control the uv pump. Agfa has two ink level sensors. One in ink bottle and another one inside ink reservoir above printhead. When there is a little ink and ink level go down to some level and ink level sensor will tell the ink pump to start to pump. When ink level is go up to some level and ink level sensor will tell the uv pump to stop to pump uv ink. Most of uv printer send this ink level signal to printhead board and then go to main board and then go to uv pump. This design is easy for uv printer operator to monitor the uv pump stats but it’s hard to maintain.
