Before installing the analyser with the loader, ensure that sufficient space of 220 80 cm is available. It is suggested to place the analyser in a position where the front end of the housing (1) has a distance at least 5 cm to the front end of the desk, otherwise there will not be enough space for placing the crucibles bin (3) on the desk.

Fix the screw (3) and check again. CAUTION A too strong tension can lead to a blockage when the crucibles are moved by the motor. If the chain plays too much, bent elements of the chain can block at the indicated point (4). Therefore keep about 1 mm play as described above.

Fig. 17: Single step operation Home position Point, where the beam of vertical Laser is interrupted by the arm. Used to establish the exact position of the arm. The arm never stays in this position, but goes to the pickup position and then parking position, depending on the step of the crucible loading sequence.
Page 20
Furnace position check (magnetic switch on pneumatic cylinder). If the furnace is open, arm goes from parking position to the pedestal. Otherwise error number 7, signalised by beeping (see chapter 11). Arm down. Fingers close. Arm up. Arm to the disposal position. Fingers open.
Step by step 9.2 Vertical Laser CAUTION V0075 • Don’t look directly into the Laser beam. Sensor Laser beam Fig. 18: Vertical Laser At this step the vertical Laser for sensing the home position of the arm is continuously ON. This can be seen by looking at the sensor underneath the Laser.
Step by step 9.3 Horizontal Laser CAUTION 1.V0075 • Don’t look directly into the Laser beam. Laser beam Laser Fig. 19: Horizontal Laser Now the horizontal Laser for sensing the position of the crucibles is continuously ON. This can be seen by looking at the sensor in front of the Laser. If the Laser is ON and there is no beeping to hear, it means that the sensor is sensing the Laser beam.
Step by step 9.4 Adjusting the Position of magnetic switch DANGER 1.G0002 Mortal danger from electric shock Exposed power contacts - High Voltage Every time the arm of the loader has to go to pedestal, the position of the furnace platform is checked.

Step by step 9.5 Adjustment of the arm at the crucible pick-up position Place several crucibles into the trays as on the picture to the left. Press the adjustment button shortly so many times, until step 9 (arm at pick up position over crucible) of the sequence is reached (see chapter “9.1 Single step operation for mechanical adjustments”).
Page 26
Step by step Top view Front view To adjust the position of the arm in this direction the whole assembly of the arm support (pneumatic cylinder and geared motor) is moved. Take a lot of care to move the assembly horizontally and avoid the tilt of the arm.
Step by step 9.6 Adjustment of the loader position when placing the crucible on the pedestal Press the adjustment button shortly so many times, until the step 14 of the sequence is reached and the crucible in the fingers is situated over the pedestal. Move the complete loader to the position when the crucible is situated centrally over the pedestal.
Step by step 9.7 Adjustment of the up/down speed of the arm The downwards speed of the fingers can be adjusted by the left hand adjustable restrictor (7), see image pneumatic connections. The upwards speed of the fingers can be adjusted with the restrictor (8).
