Initial Startup
After the melter has been properly installed, initial startup can take place.
Purging Melter
The melter was subjected to extensive testing prior to shipment. In doing so,
the tank was filled with a special test material. Material residue may still be
present in the melter. To remove the residue, melt and feed several
kilograms of material before starting production.
CAUTION: Do not operate Nordson gear pumps without material. Before
switching on the motor, ensure that the tank is filled.
1. Fill the tank (Refer to Filling Tank ).
2. Set the main switch to I/ON. The melter begins to heat up.
Position I/ON = Melter switched on.
Position 0/OFF = Melter switched off.
Padlocks can be used to protect the main switch from being turned on by
unauthorized personnel.
3. Wait until the starting screen appears on the control panel.
NOTE: When the very first startup occurs, password protection is not active
(default).
