3-8 Safety
Emergency Shutdown
WARNING!
Failure to shut down total power to the Century Series system in an
emergency with EMO and the Main Power Circuit Breaker could cause
serious bodily harm to the user and/or serious damage to the
dispensing system.
In case of an emergency or malfunction, push EMO (Figure 2-1). EMO cuts power to
system components and the temperature controller. All system components connect to the
EMO outlet except the computer and monitor.
Emergency Shutdown Situations
All Asymtek dispensing systems are designed to provide the highest level of safety under
normal operating conditions. However, in some situations an
EMO button can help prevent
operator injury or mechanical damage.
When to press EMO:
• If the operator is in immediate danger of being injured by either moving parts or
electrical shock.
• If valuable components or parts are in danger of being damaged. This can include
damage to the valve or fluid pump by unexpected dispensing head movement,
damage to the boards or parts due to overheating, or damage to the system due to
electrical failure.
