2. Safety Measures MP SYSTEMS disclaims all responsibility for non-observance of the instructions and advice contained in this manual. It furthermore disclaims all responsibility for damage caused by improper or inappropriate use of the machine or by modifications made without authorization.
2.1. General Rules MP System’s products have been designed and constructed in such a way to minimize any possible cause of danger to the operator and their surroundings. However, residual risk still remains and can arise through improper use of the machine and can be of various types; ▪...
▪ Check all electrical connections and connecting cables are well insulated and replace any cables that are evidently worn or damaged. ▪ Be sure to use power cables supplied by MP SYSTEMS or that have been approved by MP SYSTEMS.
3. Intended Uses ▪ The V-2 Series was constructed for use on sliding headstock and like machines that have existing low pressure pumps (flood), tanks, complete machining environment enclosures and CNC controls with interlocks. ▪ The V-2 Series is intended as an auxiliary coolant and chip control system working alongside the standard low pressure pump.
3.1. Features & Benefits ▪ High pressure coolant when properly applied can save considerable time per cycle, dramatically improve tool life, and remove many of the requirements for operator intervention. ▪ Cutting operations that suffer from chip evacuation problems can see improved speed, accuracy, surface finish and reliability when using the R Series high pressure system.
4. Specifications MP SYSTEMS equipment ships with an identification label. The label is located by the main disconnect on the front of the machine. Information listed on Identification Label; ▪ Pump Type ▪ Serial Number ▪ Build Date ▪ Operating Voltage (208-230VAC/460VAC) ▪...
4.1. Electrical Specifications All power for motor and hydraulics is derived from the high pressure pump input source. Main Power: 3 Phase @ 60Hz Model 208-230 VAC 460 VAC V-2 SO2 V-2 SO8 V-2 SW2 V-2 SW8 V-2 HO2 10.5 V-2 HO8 10.5 V-2 HW2...
In case of damage, do not accept the goods and immediately inform MP SYSTEMS. DO NOT accept the machine in the event of irregularities during transit. The hauler will bear the full responsibility for any damage suffered.
6.4. Storage MP System’s products must be stored in a cool and dry environment, avoiding all extreme conditions. Avoid freezing conditions. All coolant must be drained from machine before being stored. If utilizing water based coolants, the system must be flushed before storage, please refer to coolant manufacture for correct flushing agent.
7.3. Electrical Installation The MP V-Series is designed to be a versatile pump that can be used on swiss style lathes, machining and turning centers. The information outlined in this section is generic installation guide. See insert for manufacture specific instructions. There are two electrical harnesses to be installed in the electrical cabinet for the V-2 Series high pressure coolant system.
▪ NO alarms are typically wired in parallel with machine low pressure pump. ▪ Refer to V-2 Series signal schematic located in rear of this manual, please verify proper schematic. Please call MP Systems with any questions or concerns before wiring at 877-689-1860.

▪ Wiring through low pressure contactor before external M Codes ensures the MP V Series Pump will shut down whenever machine is in hard alarm. ▪ Typical lathe applications use wire #9 to supply +24vdc from V Series through a series of dry contacts.
7.4. Low Pressure Hose Installation 1. Mount supplied weld clamp on clean side of reservoir tank, after the screens, usually near the low pressure pumps already on reservoir tank. ▪ Use an already open area on the tank. If no opening, use 1 ¼” Conduit Punch or equivalent size drills for 1 ¼”...
The V-2 Series has a few installation options to choose from. Seeing the wide array of machine types and variations of each type, MP Systems has an installation kit and installation guide suited for every customer’s needs. This section will cover the basic 4 ports and remote manifold installation on machine tool.
7.5.2. Generic 8 Port Remote Manifold Installation A small 3” x 11” hole will need to be cut out of machine cabinet for proper installation of remote manifold. A mounting bracket ships with remote manifold install kit for ease of installation. 1.
8. Operation A few steps must be taken before MP SYSTEMS auxiliary coolant and chip control system can be put into operation. 8.1. Filling & Priming After all hoses are connected to V-2 Series the internal feed pump must be primed before first use.
Coolant from the machine tool is pumped into the top of filter vessel. The coolant is pumped by a self-priming pump inside the V Series high pressure system through a set of valves. Coolant flows through a 5 micron nominal size #2 polyester filter bags. The filters contain a built in O-Ring to prevent dirt and debris from bypassing filter bag.
8.3.1. Initial Pressure Setting After V-2 Series has been primed and checked for proper function the output manifold must be set to desired PSI. Please refer to max output label above output gauge. DO NOT SET ABOVE MAX PSI, DOING SO WILL VOID WARRANTY. 1.
(Normally Open) to interface with machine tool. If a fault occurs, a signal is sent to the alarm circuit on machine tool, which will put machine tool in to feed hold. MP Systems recommends using Normally Closed alarm circuits. This will allow machine tool to go into alarm if the V-2 Series ever becomes disconnected from machine tool.
9. Maintenance Before carrying out any operation on unit or accessing internal components, ensure that the power supply has been switched to the ‘OFF’ position. Before working on the unit, carefully read the safety instructions set out in the Safety Measures section Regular scheduled maintenance consists of filter bag changes, maintaining Hydracell™...
9.1. Filter Bag Replacement To change a Filter Bag: 1. Power off V-2 Series High pressure system. 2. Let pressure equalize for 30 seconds. 3. Loosen 3 galvanized eye bolts on filter cover Lift away filter top. 4. Slowly lift filter bag by handles on bag seal (coolant should drop as bag is lifted) 5.
9.2. Basic Pump Maintenance Pump Crank Case Maintenance (HydraCell™ Only) ▪ Hydracell™ (crank case) uses high quality 10w 30 motor oil. (MP Systems recommends Synthetic motor oil). ▪ Change after first 100 hours. ▪ After initial change, change every 2000 hours of pump operation.
Options & Accessories This section will cover the operation, maintenance and installation of certain options and accessories that are available on the V series high pressure system. This section will cover the following options: ▪ Local 2 Port ▪ Local 4 Port ▪...
