Operation
Refer to assembly drawing 112-2420 for part reference numbers.
1) Plumb up the valve as outlined above in the Setup procedures.
2) Regulate the air pressure operating the valve between 60-100psi.
3) Making sure that the valve is not aimed toward anyone, cycle the valve several
times. When the valve is cycling, the piston can be heard hitting the micrometer
adjustment, and the needle (3) can be seen going up and down in the center. If the
valve is not cycling properly, refer to the
Troubleshooting section.
4) When the fluid delivery system is connected to the valve, pressurize the material
to be dispensed.
5) Once again, cycle the valve open to purge. Fluid should begin to dispense from
the tip of the valve, continue dispensing until all air is removed.
6) Check fluid connection and packing nut (6) for leaks. If the valve is leaking, refer
to the
Troubleshooting section.
7) Turn the micrometer adjustment (11) until the desired flow rate is achieved.
Turning the adjustment clockwise toward zero will decrease the material flow rate
and counter-clockwise will increase the material flow rate. If the micrometer
adjustment is turned all the way down to zero, it will stop fluid flow entirely.
8) Once the micrometer setting is determined, the collar (E) on the micrometer (11)
can be turned clockwise to lock the adjustment.
Note: Refer to Troubleshooting section for any problems.
