Introduction The 1000 Series dispensers provide years of trouble-free, produc- tive service. This Operating Guide will help you maximize the usefulness of your new dispenser. Please spend a few minutes to become familiar with the controls and features of your new dispenser. Follow our recommended testing procedures.

Getting Started We have organized this Guide to provide setup and testing proce- 1000 Series Specifications dures for the 1000XL and 1000D dispensers. Input voltage: Selectable If you have the 1000XL, first review pages 6 - 9 which illustrate how 100/120/220 VAC 50/60 Hz 16/13 VA to hook up the dispenser and what the controls do.
First Steps First: Unpack and use the checklist enclosed with the Dispenser Kit to identify all items. If there is any discrepancy, please call us immediately. Second: Power and compressed plant air should be available where the dispenser is to be set up. Air pressure should be between 80 and 100 psi (5.5 to 6.9 bar).

1000XL -- Hookup Connect the air input hose to a plant air source. Set plant air supply within 80 to 100 psi (5.5 to 6.9 bar). Where required, use an EFD five-micron filter regulator #2000F755 (see Warranty). Attach the air input hose coupling to the dispenser. Pull back metal ring to attach to dispenser.

1000XL -- Setup for Testing Power switch should be off. The amount of material dispensed each cycle depends on the combination of air pressure, time of air pulse, viscosity of material and dispensing tip size. The first step is to remove the tip cap from the pre-filled barrel of blue test material (twist and pull).

Testing the 1000 Series Dispensers Making Timed Deposits You are now ready to test the pre-filled, nontoxic, blue test fluid. This material is representative of thick, non-leveling fluids like sealants, pastes or greases. 80° Check your initial settings: Pressure Timer 45°...
Page 15
Changing Deposit Size, Drawing Stripes The dot size is determined by the tip diameter, the air pressure output setting and the pulse time. For large dots, use a large tip, higher pressure and more time. Normally, you want to use as short a time pulse as possible.

Advanced Dispensing System If you dispense thick fluids, several problems may For Thick Fluids occur. First, the repetitive air cycles can bore tunnels through non-leveling fluids, causing spitting and inconsistent deposits. Second, thick Air Pressure Air Pressure fluids contain trapped air that leads to drooling and oozing.

If you use low to medium viscosity fluids, the white For Thin Fluids ™ SmoothFlow piston has several advantages. First, vacuum adjustment is much less sensitive. Second, the piston prevents fumes from the fluid being exhausted into the work environment. Third, the piston prevents fluid backflow into the dis- penser if the barrel is inadvertently turned upside down.
How to Use the Vacuum Control (1000XL only) The vacuum control allows low viscosity fluids, even water, to be consistently dispensed without dripping between cycles. The vacuum exerts a negative pressure on the fluid in the barrel and prevents dripping. Remove For these tests, you will use the test barrel with the clear fluid.
Page 19
If you choose to use the piston, please follow these instruc- Three things to remember tions carefully: If you do not use the piston when dispensing thin fluids: 1. While holding the barrel upright in one hand, twist on an orange tip cap.
Loading the Barrel Reservoirs Caution: Do not completely fill barrels. The optimum fill is a maximum 2/3 of the barrel capacity and 1/2 of the barrel capacity when using the LV Barrier ™ If the fluid you are dispensing is pourable, take the barrel, twist on a tip cap and pour your fluid in.

EFD offers productive alternatives to traditional barrel-loading meth- ods. Here are a few suggestions that can help keep your work area clean, save time and reduce the chance of entrapped air in the fluid. 1. You could use the EFD #920BL barrel loader. Pack the fluid into the 12 ounce cartridge as shown.
Now, test your fluid. Barrel Reservoir Selection Remember, each barrel must use the proper size adapter head. Five sizes of barrels and four sizes of adapter heads (30cc and 55cc barrels use the same size adapter head) are provided with this dispenser—3cc, 5cc, 10cc, 30cc and 55cc.
Troubleshooting 1. Check voltage at wall outlet. NO POWER 2. Check fuse. Replace #7111E. 3. Unplug from wall, remove top cover, visually inspect for any loose or shorted connections. 1. Switch module must be replaced. POWER, BUT NO LIGHT POWER, LIGHT, BUT 1.

Suggestions & Reminders ™ ™ 1. Always use an EFD SmoothFlow piston or LV Barrier to make barrel loading, dispensing and handling cleaner, safer and more accurate. Caution (1000XL only): If you dispense pourable fluids and choose #2000F755 ™ to use SmoothFlow pistons, do not increase vacuum pressure Five-micron filter regulator...
