to turn on the Conveyor, UV Lamp, Exhaust Blower, and Irradiator Fans.
7.
The UV Lamp will begin warming up and the power level will increase. Do not run parts through the Conveyor until the
Indicator (Figure 11; located under the lamp power text) turns green.
8.
The Irradiator Cooling Fans are programmed to have a 2-minute delay before turning on. This gives the lamps time to warm up
to operating temperature. The fans also have a 5-minute delay after the system has been turned off. Do not turn off the main
power until the fans have turned off.
NOTE: Always start the system on h
igh (400 w/in). After reaching a “ready”
status, other power level settings may be selected.
This is to give the lamp sufficient time to heat up. Starting the lamp in other than the 400 w/in setting may cause unreliable
ignition and/or unstable lamp operation.
Safety & E-Stop Conditions
The system features a category-3-rated safety circuit that features two e-stop stations, an access door, and electrical panel door
interlocks. These four devices are wired in series to a guard relay. All four devices must be in their normal operating position
(normally closed) to allow the safety circuit to engage power to the lamp, conveyor motor, and stage assemblies.
If an e-stop button is depressed, power to the blower, UV lamp, conveyor, and stage will immediately be cut out. The e-stop button
then needs to be twisted and pulled to be released, and the green reset switch pressed to re-engage the safety circuit.
During an e-stop event, the irradiator cooling fans will continue to run to prevent the lamp from overheating if the cooling is
suddenly removed from it. After an e-stop event, the operator must wait 5 minutes before the start button will become visible again.
This is to allow the lamp enough time to cool. It can be damaging to both the lamp and the UV power supply if the lamp is re-ignited
while still hot.
