5113 Capping Plastic CS-X47 – Printhead Seal for Epson 5113 Nozzle Protection

The CS-X47 plastic capping unit is specifically designed for the Epson 5113 printhead, offering reliable sealing and maintenance performance in industrial inkjet applications. Constructed with durable plastic materials, it ensures long-term stability and consistent contact with the nozzle plate.

Primary Functions

Ink Absorption: Absorbs residual ink from the nozzle surface during cleaning cycles, helping to clear minor clogs and maintain stable ink ejection.

Dust Prevention: Seals the printhead when idle, preventing dust, paper fibers, and airborne contaminants from entering the nozzle area and causing blockages.

Automatic Moisturizing: Maintains a sealed, humid micro-environment to prevent ink from drying out during standby periods, ensuring reliable print startup and reducing misfiring.

Design Features

Material: Molded plastic housing with integrated sealing lip – lightweight, chemically resistant, and dimensionally stable

Core Type: High-porosity absorption pad (foam or mesh, depending on variant) for efficient ink wicking

Compatibility Standard: Matches CSG25 sealing geometry used by Epson 5113 printheads

Model Reference: Labeled as CS-X47, indicating a plastic-body capping unit engineered for 5113 integration

Sealing Interface: Precision-formed elastomer edge ensures full-face contact without damaging the delicate nozzle plate

Compatibility

Printhead Model: Epson 5113 only

Sealing Standard: CSG25

Not Compatible With: I3200 (CSG11), 4720 (CSG18/21) – due to differences in nozzle plate layout and seal pressure requirements

Application

Used in wide-format inkjet printers equipped with Epson 5113 printheads, including:

• UV flatbed printers
• Hybrid roll-to-roll systems
• Industrial signage and decoration machines

Ideal for environments requiring stable, low-maintenance printhead protection with consistent cap-to-head contact.
