Section 8 - Operation
WARNING
Ensure that you have fully read “Section 3 - Safety” before setting up the
E-Multi injection unit.
8.1 Introduction
Before the E-Multi injection unit can be used, the controller will need to be set
up. Please see Section 9 for details on setting parameters such as:
• heating
• control
• injection speeds
• trigger signals, etc.
8.2 Controller Startup and Shutdown
CAUTION
Although the main switch has the capacity to switch the whole system off, it
is recommended that this is only done in an emergency.
The controller uses computer technology and should be switched off in
stages.
A sequenced method for switching on and off protects the console and
keeps the switched load to a minimum to extend the life of the main isolator.
CAUTION
For all E-Multi controllers, the main power switch is a rotary circuit breaker at
the rear of the cabinet. This switch is rated to safely disconnect the total load
current during switch on and switch off.
You can use a suitably-sized padlock, or similar device to lock the switch in
the off position to lockout electrical supply during maintenance.
