3.1.1
EQUIPMENT STARTUP PROCEDURE
A. The pump and all lines shall be clean and free from any contamination.
B. Turn off air to main pump. Be sure all pressure is removed from lines.
Prior to loading heated material under follower plates, premix Parts A and B for 2 – 3
minutes.
Load heated material under follower plates. Lower follower plates on to buckets and
bleed off trapped air and then close bleed valves.
NOTE: If using pump with holding tanks, use transfer pumps and begin filling unit with
material.
Turn on the main pump air to assist in the movement of material into the material lines.
Continue pumping Part A and Part B until a steady flow of material is present at the end
of each fluid delivery hose. Turn off all air.
C. Turn on fluid and line heaters, and adjust temperature of the heaters to 140-
160˚F (60˚C
-
71˚C). Wait at least 30 minutes for material to heat thoroughly or recirculate the
material until the temperature of the material reaches the temperatures stated above.
D. The pump shall be set for a 1:1 ratio and it is important to check this ratio before
beginning any work.
Hose Bundle: ¾” (100’ maximum) Whip Hose: ½” (20’ maximum).
E. The air pressures needed for properly delivering material may vary from pump to pump,
and adjustments may vary from the stated pressures herein.
F. The use of other plural component equipment (with holding tanks), shall be approved by
CARBOLINE prior to use.
With the air still turned off to the main pump,
Adjust the air pressure to the "A" component transfer pump to 40 psi. Adjust the air
pressure to the "B" component transfer pump to 40 psi. While directing the discharge
into separate, clean and equally sized containers, turn the air on to the main pump.
Keep pumping until both or one of the containers is full. Insure that the transfer pumps
are not continuously cycling. If this is so, turn up the main pump to increase the back
pressure or reduce the pressure on the transfer pumps (see note below).
G. If containers contain equal volumes, the 1:1 ratio has been achieved. If not, check for
restrictions in the air or material flow and material temperature. Repeat above
procedure. If ratio is still not correct, inspect equipment and pump packings and replace
if needed. Repeat the above procedure until a 1:1 ratio is achieved.
CARBOLINE requires that when using plural component pumps, which have
holding tanks and recirculation capabilities, the material shall not be recirculated
more than one time, and the temperature of the holding tanks shall not exceed
140
˚
F
(60
˚C). Tank mixers should be used at minimum revolutions.
Material shall be pre-heated to a minimum of 100
˚
F (37.8
˚
C) prior to introduction to
the pumping units. Thoroughly mix Parts A and B well - separately - before using.
