INSTRUCTION MANUAL ELECTRONIC MIXING MACHINE PU 3000 Manual : 1110 573.199.112 Date : 10/10/11 - Cancels : 14/12/10 Modif. : Update TRANSLATION OF THE ORIGINAL MANUAL Before assembly and start-up, please read and clearly understand all the IMPORTANT documents relating to this equipment (professional use only).
Dear Customer, You are the owner of our new PU 3000 mixing system and we would like to take this opportunity to thank you. Special care has been taken during all designing and manufacturing process to make sure your investment will provide full satisfaction. Non-compliance with instructions and precautions stated in this manual could reduce the equipment working life, resulting in operating problems and create unsafe conditions.
CAUTION : To prevent from any formation of gas and inflammable vapours, use paint whose flash point is the highest possible (refer to materials' safety instructions). Before cleaning or removing components of the equipment, it is compulsory : 1 - to shut off the air supply, 2 - to open the gun fluid circuit and depressurize the hoses, 3 - to switch off the machine electrical supply.
2. DESCRIPTION The PU 3000 proportioning system is designed for applying two component solvent or water-based paints and lacquers. There are three versions available : - a pneumatic version (maximum pressure : 0-6 bar / 0-87 psi or 6-40 bar / 87-580 psi) - an AIRMIX...

LCD screen. The PU 3000 continously saves data on the consumptions of base, catalyst and solvent as well as the total consumptions and the emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) during the operation of the machine.
3. OPERATING DESCRIPTION The 2 BASE and CATALYST materials are sent to the mixing machine from 2 pumps. In production, as well as in regeneration, the machine injects a small volume of catalyst (P-6) in the base continuous flow. The PLC continuously checks the mixing ratio and if it notices a fault that it cannot correct, an alarm is activated.
5. INSTALLATION HANDLING The PU 3000 system with relevant weight and dimensions must be handled by appropriate means. Nota : The handling of the machine must be carried out by a qualified staff, in an appropriate space, correctly cleared to avoid any risks of fall or of crushing of people.
DESCRIPTION OF THE LABEL MARKINGS The PU 3000 machine is fitted with 2 label markings : a plate on the control box and another one on the fluid equipment. Marking label on the control box Marking label on the frame (frame assembly located inside the spray booth ...
INSTALLATION DIAGRAM Potentially explosive area : area 1 (Z1) or area PTFE HP fluid hose 2 (Z2) (spray booth) Non explosive area (safe area) Automatic valves PU 3000 control box Mixer BASE pump Electrovalves CATALYST pump HP Fluid hose (not supplied)
INSTALLATION There are different ways to install the PU 3000 to answer to the majority of the installations. The control box of the PU 3000 mixing machine must be installed outside the spray booth in a safe area.
Install a fluid hose, model HP (high pressure) between the mixer outlet and the spray gun ( according to the pressures the pumps supply). Connect the air equipment of the PU 3000 to the pneumatic network with a conductive hose (minimum 16 mm / 5/8 dia).

Unscrew the 3 air regulators before supplying air to the installation. Supply air to the PU 3000 (minimum 4 bar / 58 psi). Switch on the control box (switch located on the side of the box). When switching on the control box, a menu is displayed on the screen.
A line is visible when the PU 3000 is flushed. When switching on, the machine is waiting. The 'F1' menu corresponds to the shift to the production mode. There are five different menus : they enable to control the PU 3000. F1 : production...
During that first placing into operation, it is compulsory to have all the pumps into solvent as well as the machine to ensure the good quality of the fluid get by the PU 3000. The fluid pressure must not exceed 1 bar / 14.5 psi on the gauges.
Nota : During that stage, you can not use the spray gun. When the mixing ratio checking is over, switch off the PU 3000 machine. Disconnect the air hose from the VP3 valve and connect it to the BASE valve.
9. APPLICATION PROGRAMMING (F3) To alter the parameters of the PU 3000, go to F3, then validate. To shift from a parameter to another, use . the arrows Select the parameter to alter. Depress the key , then the arrows to increase or decrease the value.

You can also activate ESC during the fluid priming; we advice you not to start painting inmediately. In production, there are 3 main screen messages: The operator is spraying and the PU 3000 is operating correctly. The real mixing ratio is displayed on the screen. ...
FLUSHING (F2) This menu is used for flushing. When you want to flush the machine, activate when you are on the F2 menu. After confirming via , the machine opens the solvent valve. The buzzer sounds intermittently. Check the solvent pump supply valve is open. A countdown begins : F2-9, then F2-8.
