Hose and applicator connection
Macro 200 melters use standard Meler components. The entire range of Meler
hoses and applicators may be connected to this equipment.
Up to four hose-applicator outputs may be connected to 200 liter Macro
melters, depending on the number of pumps installed.
Warning: When connecting hose-applicator outputs, verify that the connected
power is not above the maximum allowable power for each output.
The Macro 200 melting equipment is equipped with a hydraulic distributor for
each pump, with 2 possible outputs, depending on the connections that will be
used.
Connect the hoses to the distributor according to the needs of the installation
and the ease of connection. Caution:
• In order to identify each hose-applicator, electrically connect them to
the connector with the same number as the output they use.
• It is preferable to use couplings at a 90° angle to minimize the space
the hoses occupy. Using straight couplings usually results in curves
with very small radii that may damage the inside of the hose.
• Save the screw-on caps that are removed from the distributor in order
to connect a hose. They may be necessary in the future if a hose is
removed from its location.
• Perform the electrical hose and applicator connections with the
equipment turned off. Failing to do so may result in electrical defects in
the connection and the appearance of alarm messages on the melter
display.
Parameter Programming
Once the melter and its components are installed, you will need to program
the operational parameters appropriate for the specific application that will be
performed.
Macro 200 melters simplify this task as much as possible, allowing the
operator to modify only those parameters that are necessarily variable for
each application.
Among the various parameters, it is necessary to program the set point
temperature values for each component connected and the value for
overheating warnings. There are two other parameters (weekly start-up and
shut-down programming and the standby temperature value) left to program
in advanced systems, although the factory default values are perfectly valid for
operational purposes.
Programming working temperatures
The melters leave the factory with the following set point temperatures:
