Retaining Ring—

The brawn of the AirFree dispensing technology

The multi-legged stainless steel design locks the syringe in place, making the syringe and gun one. In dispensing, any flexing between the barrel reservoir and surface to which it is secured represents a pressure loss and will change the amount of fluid dispensed. Due to the tight tolerance between the stainless steel retaining ring and the gun, there is no room for barrel flexing when the thrust-of-dispense cycle is applied. This is a key contributor to maintaining positive displacement dispensing.

The Control Unit—

The brains of AirFree dispensing

The control unit gives the user control over volume output; dispense rate, reverse motion and motion delay. By imputing and manipulating these parameters, the microprocessor will calculate the number of steps needed to achieve the requested result. A universal switching power supply automatically adapts to multiple AC inputs. The foot pedal may be removed for automated activation using a dry contact.

Helpful Hints

Priming the System

Removal of the tip cap and introduction of a new needle traps air pockets inside the stem of the syringe and hub of the needle. Because our system positively displaces fluid, it is very important no air is present in any portion of the syringe. Therefore, it is important that any trapped air is pushed out of the syringe prior to dispensing.

Changing Barrels Reservoirs

Same Size Barrels: Simply switch one barrel for the next. The only consideration is to prime the new dispense tip prior to dispensing (page ?). The LDS9000 recognizes barrels of the same size so it is not necessary to reset the system.

Different Size Barrels: When changing to a different size barrel, it is necessary to reset the lead screw, reset the dispense parameters and prime the dispense tip. To reset the lead screw remove the barrel reservoir, flip the Auto/Manual switch to Manual and the Extend/Retract switch to Retract. Hold the foot pedal down until the lead screw retracts all the way into the dispense gun.

LDS9000 specifications

The Fishman LDS9000 is a premium acoustic guitar pickup system that has garnered significant attention among musicians and sound engineers alike. This state-of-the-art system offers a range of features that enhance sound quality and control, making it a preferred choice for both live performances and studio recordings.

One of the standout features of the LDS9000 is its advanced under-saddle piezo pickup technology. This design minimizes feedback and maximizes tonal clarity, allowing for a more natural acoustic sound. The sensitivity of the piezo pickups captures the subtleties of each note, resulting in a rich, vibrant tone that resonates beautifully through amplifiers and PA systems.

The LDS9000 also incorporates a high-quality preamp, which amplifies the signal without introducing noise. This preamp offers a variety of controls, including volume, tone, and phase switch, giving players the ability to shape their sound in real-time. The phase switch is particularly valuable for live settings, as it helps eliminate feedback issues by reversing the phase of the signal.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the Fishman LDS9000 is its ease of installation. The system is designed to be user-friendly, allowing guitarists to install it without extensive modifications to their instrument. This makes it an ideal choice for both amateur and professional musicians who want to upgrade their sound without sacrificing their guitar's integrity.

Durability is a hallmark of the LDS9000, as it is built with robust materials designed to withstand the rigors of frequent use. The system's components are weather-resistant, ensuring reliability even in humid or extreme environments. This durability, combined with Fishman's reputation for quality, makes the LDS9000 a long-term investment for musicians looking to enhance their acoustic sound.

In summary, the Fishman LDS9000 offers an unparalleled blend of sound quality, ease of use, and durability. Its advanced piezo technology, high-quality preamp, and user-friendly installation make it a top choice for musicians seeking to elevate their acoustic performances. With the LDS9000, artists can confidently deliver a professional sound that truly reflects their musical vision. Whether on stage or in the studio, this pickup system is an essential tool for any serious acoustic guitarist.
