heater will stop working. At this moment, it needs to check overload reasons (phase shortage, pipe obstruction, broken bearing, etc.) After the system runs normally, press RESET on overload relay to rest the operation. 6) Before turn off the pump, wait until oil temperature falls blow 50℃. Or the service life of the unit would be affected.

Structure Charateristics and Working Principle 2.1 Working Principle Picture 2-1:Working Principle The high temperature oil returns to the machine and then be pressured by pump to the heaters. After being heated, oil will be forced to the mould and continue the circle. In the process, if the oil temperature is too high, system will activate the solenoid valve to let cooling water cool down high temperature oil indirectly until the temperature is down to the system requirement.

2.4 Main Electrical Components Description 2.4.1 Overload Relay At delivery, the overload relay is set for mannual reset. When motor overload occurs, stop the machine, then check and solve the problem. After that open the door of control box, press down the reset button of overload relay (if you can not press down the reset button, wait for one minute).
3. Installation and Debugging 3.1 Installation Space During installation of the machine, keep at least 500mm installation space around the machine as following picture. Don’t install the machine in a narrow or crowded place with other objects. This would cause inconvenience to operation, maintenance and repair.
3.2 Pipeline Connection 1) Open the ball valve when machine is filling the oil. After the mould is filled with oil, close the valve and start up the machine. Picture 3-2:Ball Valve 2) After connect the cooling water outlet to drainage port, turn on the water source switch.
3.3 Power Connection Make sure the power match the specification, then connect the power supply. Please check the voltage specification signs on machine’s nameplate carefully. The power supply must match the specification indicated on nameplate. The cable must match the section specification indicated in circuit diagram. 39(62)

Maintenance and Repair Pay attention to the following rules during maintenance: 1) Need at least two persons present when checking the machine. Let the machine cool down, turn off power supply, drain out the oil and water. Make sure checking and maintenance space then start operation. 2) It’s dangerous that machine works in high temperature.
6.1 Y Type Strainer Cleaning Clean soft water should be used as cooling water. Filter screen is used in the strainer to stop impurities and pollutants entering into water pipe. Impurities or pollutants may cause errors and bad temperature control. It needs to clean the Y type strainer periodly.
6.3 Heater Pipe Cleaning After long use of the machine and with high temperature, there will be clingage and limscale accumulated on heater pipe which lower the heating efficiency. At this time, it needs to clean the clingage and limscale accumulated on heater pipe.
