The Loctite EQ RC30 Manual Reservoir is connected to an external pneumatic supply. An uncovered bottle of Loctite® product is placed directly into the EQ RC30 Manual Reservoir, the feedline is inserted into the product, and the reservoir lid is clamped in place.
Installation Before using the equipment for the first time check it carefully for signs of external damage. If any shipping damage is found DO NOT USE THE EQUIPMENT – return it to your supplier immediately. 4.1 Environmental and Operating Conditions Keep product feedline as short as possible.
Use flexible pneumatic hoses and Loctite supplied product feedlines to prevent unnecessary loads on the fitting and to ensure compatibility. Keep all fittings tight. No direct sunlight; no UV light. No condensing humidity. Avoid direct contact with water. 4.2 Connecting the Unit Use only the cable and hose sets supplied.
The pneumatic and safety devices would become clogged and therefore ineffective! Warning! Before loosening the reservoir locking knobs (6), the EQ RC30 Manual Reservoir must be depressurized (pressure-free)! When dispensing cyanoacrylate and an empty signal is shown, refill the product reservoir immediately, since air in the product line results in curing of the product! The reservoir is depressurized when the depressurizing valve (2) is in “OFF”...
• Continue dispensing with the selected dispensing pressure. Operation 5.1 First Operation: Warning! Before loosening the reservoir locking knobs (6), the EQ RC30 Manual Reservoir must be depressurized (pressure-free)! The EQ RC30 Manual Reservoir is depressurized when the reservoir pressure gauge indicates no pressure.
Notice: To avoid air bubbles during dispensing, the product line must be filled and then purged of air. • Position the dispensing valve as specified in its instruction manual to ensure bubble-free filling of the product line. • Set the pressure regulator (2) to a dispensing pressure of 0.5bar (approx. 7 psi) and open the manual dispense valve until the produce flows out.
