CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual SAFETY & WARNING INFORMATION: OPERATING YOUR POLYESTER SYSTEM SAFELY 1. Introduction Any tool, if used improperly, can be dangerous. Safety is ultimately the responsibility of those using the tool. In like manner, safe operation of polyester processes is the responsibility of those who use such processes and those who operate the equipment. This manual outlines procedures to be followed in conducting polyester operations safety.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual Type of Fire Extinguishing equipment recommended: Fire Extinguisher – code ABC, rating number 4a60bc. Extinguishing Media – Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Water Fog. Copies of the above bulletins are available, at a nominal charge from: National Fire Protection Association 470 Atlantic Avenue Boston, MA 02210 Research Report No.11 of the American Insurance Association deal with “Fire, Explosion and Health Hazards of Organic Peroxides”.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual 2.2 Catalyst (Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide) MEKP is among the more hazardous materials found in commercial channels. The safe handling of the “unstable (reactive)” chemicals presents a definite challenge to the plastics industry.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual C. Prevent contamination of MEKP with other materials, including polyester over spray and sandings, polymerization accelerators and promoters, brass, aluminum and non-stainless steels. D. Never add MEKP to anything that is hot, since explosive decomposition may result. E. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Protective equipment should be worn at all times. During clean-up of spilled MEKP, personal safety equipment, gloves and eye protection must be worn.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual When all three elements are present, the result can be an extremely violent explosion. The reaction can be sustained with very little aluminum or galvanized metal; any amount of aluminum is too much. A. The reaction is unpredictable. Prior use of an HHC solvent without incident (corrosion or explosion) does NOT mean that such use is safe. These solvents can be dangerous alone (as a clean-up or flushing agent) or when used as a component or a coating material.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual G. Adequate ventilation (as covered in OSHA Section 1910.94 and NFPA No.91) is important wherever solvents are stored or used, to minimize, confine and exhaust the solvent vapors. H. Solvents should be handled in accordance with OSHA Section 1910.106 and 1910.107. 2.4 Catalyst Diluents Magnum Venus Plastech spray-up and gel-coat systems currently produced are designed so that catalyst diluents are not required.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual 2.7 Toxicity of Chemicals A. Magnum Venus Plastech recommends that you consult OSHA Sections 1910.94, 1910.106, 1910.107 and NFPA No.33, Chapter 14, and NFPA No.91. B. Contact your chemical supplier(s) and determine the toxicity of the various chemicals used as well as the best methods to prevent injury, irritation and danger to personnel. C. Also determine the best methods of first aid treatment for each chemical used in your plant. 2.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual 3.0 Equipment Safety WARNING Magnum Venus Plastech suggests that personal safety equipment such as EYE GOGGLES, GLOVES, EAR PROTECTION, and RESPIRATORS be worn when servicing or operating this equipment. Ear protection should be worn when operating a fiberglass chopper to protect against hearing loss since noise levels can be as high as 116 dB (decibels).
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual 3.2 Grounding Grounding an object means providing an adequate path for the flow of the electrical charge from the object to the ground. An adequate path is one that permits charge to flow from the object fast enough that it will not accumulate to the extent that a spark can be formed. It is not possible to define exactly what will be an adequate path under all conditions since it depends on many variables.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual Introduction: The Digital Monitor is designed to display the Glass Rate and Glass Total. By using a sensor assembly, signals are sent to the control box from the Glass sensor. These signals are then converted to produce the Glass Rate and Glass Total. The Monitor is designed to be modular so that if one component becomes inoperative the rest of the system will continue to operate and the inoperative component can easily be replaced.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual Quick Start – Set Point: The Digital Readout is designed to display the Glass Rate and Glass Total. After counting up to a preset number of counts / weight the unit will then send a signal. This signal can be used to turn OFF a resin pump and chopper or ON/OFF some other device. FOR SYSTEMS WITH AUTOMATIC VALVING: QUICK START: To Reset the Set Point Value 1. Plug the unit into a power source and turn the power switch to ON. 2.

CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual Calibration – Resin Total & Rate: Setup and Installation The Glass Total counter needs to be calibrated to display the desired value. This is done by entering a Scaling Factor into the Glass Total display. The scaling factor will depend on the Glass yield the number of strands being use. Once calibrated the unit will accurately display the total amount of material processed in the units desired. The units of measure are determined by the weight measure used i.e.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual • GLASS TOTAL SCALING FACTOR The glass total can be setup a couple of different ways depending on how many strands of glass are being used. The total can include both strands of glass or calculated for one strand and then doubled to give the correct total. The number of input counts is multiplied by the scale factor (ASCFAC) to obtain the desired process value.
CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual Calculating the Glass Total Scale Factor: SF (ASCFAC) = Desired Display Decimal DDD (Number of pulses per “single” unit x CM x SM) Desired Displayed Decimal DDD 1 10 100 1000 (AdECPt) 0 0.0 0.00 0.000 Counter Decimal Selection None Tenths Hundredths Thousandths Number of pulses per “single” unit: pulses per unit generated by the process (i.e. # of pulses per Pound or Kilogram) CM: Counter Mode (A Cnt) times factor of the mode 1, 2 or 4.

CB-6000-GT Material Monitor Manual The Glass Rate can be calculated by: If the number of pulses per “single” unit (i.e. # of pulses per pound or kilogram) is known, then it can be entered as the Scaling Input value and the Scaling Display value will be entered as the following: Display Value (rdSP 1) 1 = seconds, 60 = minutes and 3600 = Hours Input Value (r InP 1) = # of pulses per unit Notes: 1.
