Daily Start-up Procedure

WARNING
PRESSURIZED FLUID HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious bodily inju-
ry, such as fluid injection or splashing
fluid in the eyes or on the skin, ALWAYS
wear eye protection and protective clothing when
installing, operating, or servicing this dispensing
system.
There are 2 ways to start up the system. You can
either:
manually start the system each day
use the optional 7-day timer to heat up the system
unattended
If you manually start up the system, be sure to allow at
least 60 minutes for the material to fully heat up before
the system is ready for use.
If you use the optional 7-day timer to heat up the
system, you must:
create a schedule and program it into the 7-day
timer (see the documentation that came with the
electrical control panel). Be sure to allow at least
60 minutes for the material to heat up before the
supply unit is ready for use.
perform specific procedures each night to make the
system ready for automatic operation.
Operation
Starting the System Manually
To start the system manually:
1. Verify that the main disconnect is ON.
2. Turn the CONTROL ON switch to ON.
3. Open the dispense valve over a waste container to
allow the material to expand. This will prevent
damage to the equipment.
4. Make sure that all dispense valves are open.
5. After all of the dispense zones are heated to oper-
ating temperature, wait an additional 30 minutes to
allow the material to heat fully.
6. Close dispense valves.
7. Turn the pump air supply ON and set the regulator
for normal operation.
8. Dispense some material into a waste container.
9. Verify the flow rate is correct; adjust if required.
With the material heated, and the flow rate corrected
as necessary, the system is ready for operation.
Do not over pressurize the system, as this could
result in serious injury or damage to the equipment.
NOTE: It is normal for the pump to stop moving if the
dispense gun or other fluid valve is closed.
WARNING
HOT PRESSURIZED FLUID HAZARD
Make sure to open the dispense valve to
reduce risk of pressurized fluid leaks
because of thermal expansion of the
fluid, during system heat-up.
To reduce risk of pressurized fluid leaks
make sure that all material valves are
open before continuing with this proce-
dure.
Before energizing the hose heater, open
the dispense valve. Thermal expansion
of the fluid may cause the hose to over-
pressurize.
