The power supply for the device must be taken from the circular knitting machine. The power supply to the device The MSF 3 storage feeder is designed solely for feeding must be switched on and off from the main switch of the yarn to textile machines.
► Yarn control on the winding reel using contactless The reeling device within the winding reel transports and separates the yarn windings making it possible to process sensors to prevent yarn tension peaks. The MSF 3 even the most difficult yarns. operates continuously, without starting and stopping.
Installation Connecting the contact cable ► Fix the contact cable (4) with cable ties (5) to the feeder support ring (3) (3 to 10 mm thick, 25 to 30 mm wide). 3 mm The red wire (6) of the contact cable must be at the top. The text (2) on the contact cable must be visible.
► Switch off the power supply. ► Install the remaining units. ► Switch on the power supply at regular intervals and check the functional efficiency of up to 10 units. MEMMINGER-IRO GMBH Power Supply Units Max. number of Item no. Power Number of fuse units Max.
Installation Installing the input tensioner (optional) The input tensioner is fixed at the yarn inlet of the unit. Fit the rotation stop (4) to ensure that the input tensioner does not rotate out of position. The input tensioner has the following components: ►...
Installation Fitting the output stop device (optional) ► Remove the cover (1). ► Push the plug (3) into the contact socket (2). Ensure that the plug engages fully into the socket. ► Screw the output stop device (4) to the unit. NOTE! Take care not to crush the cable during this operation.
Operation Switching on ► Press the ON/OFF button (3) once. The unit will check if there are enough yarn windings on the winding reel. If there are not enough, the missing wind- ings will be wound onto the winding reel automatically. The red LED (1) lights up during this function.
Operation Adjusting the yarn tension at the outlet The yarn tension must be adjusted to match the yarn type and hardness. ► Turn the knob (4) on the tensioner (3). The pressure exerted by the tension cone (2) on the winding reel (1) increases or decreases depending on the direction in which the knob is rotated.
Operation Calibrating the unit The unit must be calibrated again if one of the following faults occur: The winding reel runs empty The winding reel will not wind on fully The winding reel is overwound ► Switch off the unit (3). Press the ON/OFF button for at least two seconds.
Servicing Changing the magnetic tensioner You can remove the tension cone for cleaning. ► Pull the knob (1). ► Remove the tension cone (3) from the tensioner (2). Cleaning the yarn sensors Only use the sensor cleaner 09-270-001 or the optional cleaning brush 000-680-098 to clean the yarn sensors.
