General Cleaning
General cleaning of the MagneMover LITE transport system consists of cleaning transport
system surfaces as described below.
Required Tools and Equipment
•
Disposable gloves.
•
Microfiber cleaning cloth.
•
Deionized water.
•
Isopropyl alcohol (optional).
Procedure
1.
Stop all motion on the sections of the MagneMover LITE transport system to be
cleaned.
2.
While wearing gloves, clean all exposed transport system surfaces and cables with a
clean microfiber cloth slightly dampened with deionized water or isopropyl alcohol.
Wipe in the direction of the grain on all surfaces that have a grain.
3.
Ensure all components are dry.
4.
Resume motion on the sections of the MM LITE transport system that were stopped.
Spray Cleaning
Spray cleaning the MagneMover LITE motors or the material being moved on the motors
consists of providing a constant water spray as defined by IP65 as described below.
1.
Ensure all components that are not IP65 washdown compatible (power supplies, Node
Controllers, etc.) are appropriately covered.
2.
If the only the motors are being cleaned, stop all motion on the sections of the MM
LITE to be cleaned. If material in transit is being cleaned, motion does not need to be
stopped and the speed should be adjusted to ensure proper cleaning of the material.
3.
Initiate the IP65 washdown of compatible components (motors, switches) or material
in transport.
•
Maximum water volume: 12.5 liter [0.26 gallon] per minute.
•
Maximum pressure: 30 kN/m
2
[6.14 psf] at distance of 3 m [9.8 ft].
4.
If the only the motors are being cleaned, ensure all components are dry and return the
MagneMover LITE transport system to normal operation.
NOTICE
Only the motors, pucks, and magnet arrays are IP65 washdown compatible.
Ensure all components that are not IP65 washdown compatible (power sup-
plies, Node Controllers, etc.) are not exposed to water spray.
