Cimline has introduced Metro Series melter applicators, which join the company’s Magma and Matrix melters that are used by contractors and municipalities throughout the world. Metro models in 150-, 275- and 425-gal capacities offer exclusive features designed to enhance operator convenience, productivity and safety. The Metro features a hose carrier to reduce operator fatigue. This three-section articulated boom keeps the hose low for better visibility while providing added support. An additional benefit is the protection it provides in travel mode when wind buffeting can cause hose wear. The articulated boom is available for single- or dual-hose models. Metro’s Fume-Guard uses an ignition system to burn off excess fumes generated from heating the sealant to optimum temperature. A propane burner is positioned in the kettle’s vent and sensors prevent gas from flowing to the burner if it is not fired. The results are dramatically less smoke and fumes that make the Metro more community friendly. A new style loading door is standard on the Metro and provides ultimate safety from splash back. A sealant block fits inside the door’s cavity, which rotates 180° to discharge the sealant block without letting fumes and smoke escape.
