The sixth generation of BAUER controllers makes operation exceptionally user-friendly and intuitive.

Thanks to optimised software, operation and technical possibilities have been decisively enhanced, with new features including integrated volume option to control the process and up to 8 independent valves.

The proportional valve can be installed separately from the control panel, e.g. directly on the IMM, in order to reduce the length of the hose and thus the amount of nitrogen consumed.

All the information you need at your fingertips!
