Other factors
While installing Macro series melters, other practical considerations should
be kept in mind:
• Keep the load opening accessible for comfortable melter filling.
• Position the melter equipment in such a way that you can easily see the
front panel display where temperatures and possible alarm signals are
shown.
• As much as possible, try to avoid unnecessarily long hoses that result
in elevated electrical energy consumption levels and pressure drops.
• Do not install the melter equipment beside powerful heat or cooling
sources that may have distortional effects upon its operation.
• Avoid melter vibrations.
• Make sure that the melter maintenance areas (filter, purging valve,
tank interior, etc.) are easily accessible.
Unpacking
Before proceeding with the installation of the melter, it should be removed
from its location on a pallet and examined in order to detect any possible
breakage or deterioration. Communicate any defect, even to the outer packing
materials, to your Meler Representative or to the Main Office
Contents
The Macro series packing materials may contain accessories that form
part of the same order. If this is not the case, the following are the standard
components that accompany the melter:
• Instruction manual.
• Guarantee card.
• Hose couplings.
• Electrical wall bushing Pg (on the unit).
• Connector for external I/O (included on the power card).
Mounting the equipment
The Macro series melting equipment are equipped with wheels for their easy
transport and positioning near the main machine.
The four wheels turn 360°, and two are equipped with brakes. To move the
unit, unlock the two wheels by lifting the lever.
Slide the unit to its final position. Lock the wheels once again, lowering the
levers.
