START-UP
1.
Connect the AC and ground connections as described in Section 1.2.5;
2.
Turn the Power Switch on to power the system. Check for any Fault or Alarm messages. If the status screen
shows “100% Power” message, then the system is ready for operation.
See Section 2 of this Manual for Connections Diagrams.
1.2.7
USING THE MACHINE
1.
Connect the machine to the electric supply 220/230 VAC – single phase
;
2.
Crucible. Check that your crucible is good enough to make a melting. A too much used crucible can make the
casting very slow. Check also that the bottom is not too thin, you risk that it brakes during the melting causing the
metal going out.
3.
Place the crucible in the melting chamber. The purpose of the thermocouple is to read the temperature of the
induction coil in order to protect it from overheating.
4.
Switch on the machine pressing the main switch (fig. 2.2-2) positioned on the back of the machine;
5.
On the control panel you have the possibility to adjust 2 parameters:
- Power. This parameter determines how fast the melting will be done. We suggest to use 100 % power;
- Time. This timer can be set in 2 states – OFF or time in minutes 1 – 30. If the time is set (1 – 30 min) after starting
melting cycle, the timer will start to count down. When the set time expires, melting cycle stops. The purpose of this
timer is “time out“ for heat on. If you do not like to use the timer, set it in “OFF” state.
