System Operation Purging Read Warnings, page 6. Follow the Grounding instructions in your system Installation manual. To avoid splashing fluid in the eyes, wear eye protection. There are 4 purging procedures in this manual: • • • Purging Mixed Material (below) Purging Using Recipe 0 (page 74) Purging Fluid Supply System (page 74) 2.
System Operation Purging Using Recipe 0 Purging Fluid Supply System Recipe 0 is typically used in multiple color systems to purge out material lines without loading a new color. Follow this procedure before: • the first time material is loaded into equipment* • servicing • shutting down equipment for an extended period of time • putting equipment into storage To setup Recipe 0, go to Advanced Setup. Select the Recipe tab and change the Recipe to 0. The Recipe 0 Setup Screen appears.
System Operation 3. Adjust the solvent fluid supply pressure. Use the lowest possible pressure to avoid splashing. 4. Remove the Fluid Station Control Box cover to access the solenoid valves. See FIG. 75 on page 71. 5. Purge as follows: • Single color systems: Press the manual override on the Dose Valve A solenoid valve and trigger the gun into a grounded metal pail until clean solvent flows from the gun. • Multiple color systems: Select Recipe 0 and press Enter .
Meter Calibration Meter Calibration 4. On the EasyKey, press the Setup key to access setup screens. 5. Press the Right Arrow Calibrate the meter: • The first time the system is operated. • Whenever new materials are used in the system, especially if the materials have viscosities that differ significantly. • At least once per month as part of regular maintenance. • Whenever a flow meter is serviced or replaced. key to select the Cali- bration Screen. Press the Enter key to select Dose Valve A.
Meter Calibration 8. Compare the amounts on the EasyKey to the amount in the beaker. NOTE: For maximum accuracy, use a gravimetric (mass) method to determine the actual volume dispensed. 9. If the screen and actual volume are different, enter the actual dispensed volume in cc for A or Solvent Volume field, and press the Enter key. If the value was substantially different, repeat the calibration process.
Color Change Color Change Color Change Procedures Multiple Color Systems 1. Shut off air to the gun. 2. Place the gun in the gun flush box if used, and close the lid. 3. Go to Standby mode (remove Mix input). 4. Select the new recipe. Begin the color change sequence. 5. If a gun flush box is not used, trigger the gun (manual or automatic) into a grounded metal pail until the color change sequence is complete.
Color Change Color Purge/Dump Step P0-P1 • This sequence flushes out the color with solvent, from the color valve to the Dump A valve. • The color change solvent valve and the Dump A valve open during the Purge Time. • The color change solvent valve closes when the Purge Time expires. Color Fill Step P1-P2 • This sequence fills the line with the new color all the way to the Dump A valve. • The new color valve and the Dump A valve open during the Fill Time.
