Why are colors difficult to reproduce with HERO A450 Dispenser?
- M
  Michael ShahAug 13, 2025
  Difficulties in color reproduction with the HERO Dispenser can stem from several factors: * Dirty dispense nozzles. * One or more colorants not dispensing. * Colorant in the wrong canister. * Variations in colorant specifications. * Improper calibration. To address this, clean the nozzles and complete a purge cycle. Identify any colorants not dispensing and resolve the issue. Ensure the correct colorant is in each canister, and verify the colorant specifications. Finally, check and adjust the calibration as needed.

How to fix irregular pitch noise from HERO A450 pump?

  gonzalezdanaAug 17, 2025
  An irregular pitch noise from the HERO Dispenser pump, accompanied by little to no colorant dispensing, can be due to several reasons. The colorant may be too thick, or the pump may be stuck or stalled. It could also be due to a poorly connected or damaged cable between the PCB and the pump motor, a stepper motor malfunction, or a malfunctioning PCB. Try moving the pump rotor by hand, thinning the colorant, checking the cable connections, or replacing the cable, pump cartridge, or PCB.

  If the pump motor runs normally, but no colorant is dispensed from the HERO Dispenser, it could be due to several reasons: there might be no colorant in the canister, the canister nozzle could be obstructed, the line may be clogged, or the pump cartridge might be damaged. Try adding colorant and priming the line, cleaning or replacing the nozzle, clearing the line with water, or replacing the pump cartridge.

  Daniel SmithAug 25, 2025
  Colorant dripping from the HERO Dispenser nozzle can occur due to aerated colorant, a dirty nozzle, a damaged nozzle tip, or an incorrectly set pull-back feature. To resolve this, dispense colorant until a regular flow is observed, clean the nozzle tips, replace the nozzle if damaged, and reprogram the pull-back parameters in the software.

  If one agitation motor isn't working on your HERO Dispenser, it could be due to a poorly connected or damaged power cable, a damaged motor, or a damaged circuit on the PCB. Check the cable connections at both ends, replace the cable if necessary, or replace the agitation motor. As a last resort, replace the PCB.
