MA-5052-ENG MACRO SERIES MELTER MANUAL
Connect the plant air supply (max. 6 bar) to the melter intake using flexible
tubing with an outside diameter of 6 mm. The equipment is provided with a
quick coupling for this purpose.
Activate the air supply to pass and turn the pressure regulator clockwise.
The ratio between the pneumatic pressure and the hydraulic pressure on the
circuit is 1 to 13 bar.
Warning: A 6 bar on the grid, the maximum pressure on the hydraulic circuit
reaches 80 bar. There is a risk of burns or particle projection. Use thermal
protective gear and goggles.
Hose and applicator connection
Macro series 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 50 and 120L 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 series 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 45° or 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 theconnection 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 series melters simplify this task as much as possible, allowing the
operator to modify only those parameters that are necessarily variable for
each application.
