  • Page 6: Operation

    Operation The LDS9000 Dispensing System uses a patented Linear Drive System (LDS) to transfer force from the drive motor to the syringe piston. The motor, lead screw and syringe piston are linked mechanically. Each attachment (gun to reservoir, gun to piston, piston to reservoir) is specifically designed to provide zero flexing in the system during a dispense.

  • Page 11: Attaching The Syringe

    Attaching the Syringe Remove the end cap from the barrel reservoir. • Make sure a tip cap is on the barrel. Remove the retaining ring from the dispense gun. Holding the dispensing gun with the piston hub pointed upward, place the barrel over the piston hub of the dispense gun.
  • Page 12 Attach the Syringe (continued) Attaching the Syringe (continued) Manually twist the barrel in a clockwise direction until the luer lock connector is finger tight and the ears of the barrel are flush against the retaining plate. It may be necessary to set the EXTEND/RETRACT switch to RETRACT and step on the foot pedal to bring the barrel ears completely flush to the retaining plate.
  • Page 13: Removing The Syringe

    Removing the Syringe At the end of a dispense program the control unit will display a message: “Remove syringe and press enter.” Remove the retaining ring cover by turning clockwise. Slide the retaining ring cover over the barrel reservoir. Twist the barrel reservoir clockwise to remove it from the piston hub.

  • Page 17: How To Make A Bead

    How to Make a Bead To dispense a continuous bead of fluid instead of a single dot, follow these steps. Switch the AUTO/MANUAL switch to MANUAL. Set the shot size to the lowest setting. For best results, set the dispense rate to slow, to minimize backpressure in the syringe.
  • Page 18: Operating Tips

    First Shot Set Up •Follow the steps listed in the LDS9000 Rapid Setup Guide. We recommend you work with the Fishman test fluid provided in your dispenser to establish the first deposit. •When priming your dispense tip watch how long the fluid flows out of the tip.
  • Page 19 • Use Fishman FreeFlow™ tapered dispense tips. Small gauge tips will only create backpressure, put stress on the fluid and cause ooze. The Linear Drive System will positively displace fluids, which allows the use of larger tips with no effect on performance.
  • Page 20: Loading The Reservoirs

    Paying attention to minimization during syringe filling will drastically improve performance. For best results, use a Fishman barrel filing station (see next page). If needed, use a centrifuge or vacuum chamber to eliminate any trapped air.
  • Page 21: Alternative Filling Methods

    Fishman syringe (piston inserted), filing from the bottom up. •If the fluid comes prepackaged in a 1/10 gallon caulking style cartridge use the Fishman B250001 barrel loader. Operation is exactly as above; the only difference is the reservoir is designed to fit the caulking cartridge.
  • Page 22: Defining The System

    For the best results always select the smallest barrel reservoir that will work for your application. To minimize set up time we preprogrammed the control unit using standard Fishman luer lock barrels. Simply select the proper size (3,5,10,30) and move to the next parameter. Dispense Volume: Having the ability to enter a dispense volume is what separates the LDS9000 from traditional pneumatic dispensing systems.
  • Page 23 Defining the System Drawback: Upon completion of the dispense cycle, fluid oozing out of the dispense tip is a common problem when dispensing compressible fluids. The Drawback parameter eliminates any oozing by implementing a mechanically reversed action at the end of the dispense cycle.
  • Page 24: Manual Mode

    Defining the System Manual Mode Program is ideally suited for priming the dispense tip and manual dispensing such as potting and beads. In manual mode the parameters and function of the parameters are exactly the same as program mode. The only difference is that the system will only dispense fluid for the amount of time the user holds the foot pedal down.
  • Page 25 Defining the System Retaining Ring— The brawn of the AirFree dispensing technology The multi-legged stainless steel design locks the syringe in place, making the syringe and gun one. In dispensing, any flexing between the barrel reservoir and surface to which it is secured represents a pressure loss and will change the amount of fluid dispensed.
  • Page 26: How The Lds9000 Works

    How the LDS9000 Works With the power ON, here’s what happens when you press the foot pedal: The program is engaged, the motor is energized beginning the dispense cycle countdown. The motor pushes the lead screw, with piston attached to the end, down the barrel pushing the liquid out the dispensing tip.

    When the front seal is maintained the piston will not leak. Also, adding a Fishman Piston Stabilizer will help. See Accessories for ordering information.
