Operation – Further Features of the Press
The Safety Guards
The Atlas™ Autotouch 40T press incorporates a front safety guard
mechanism (
5
) that is crucial for the safe operation of the press. The
front (
5
) and rear (
17
) safety guards are made from PETG, a glycol
modified polyethylene terephthalate, which is a clear, transparent
material offering a high impact resistance to contain any work within
the pressing area in the unlikely event there is an immediate release of
stored energy in the sample. When the front guard (
5
) is closed (down)
and the (
ok
) or (
OK
) status is indicated, the press is enabled to apply a
load to a sample. When the front guard (
5
) is open (up) the press
operation is disabled. (No power to the motor is allowed). However, the
“
Pump up to
” load can be adjusted and set with the front guard (
5
) in
the open or closed position.
If the electrical power to the press is disconnected, or there is a cut in
the power when a sample has been compressed and is still under load,
always
ensure that the front guard (
5
) remains in the closed (down)
position before re-establishing power to the press. The indications that
this event has happened will be that the power switch (
1
) on the front
panel (
2
) is showing the green (on) colour bar, but the electronic
Display Screen (
4
) is blank. When the press is re-powered, as a safety
measure, the press automatically releases any stored load and any
program sequence that was running will have been aborted. When the
(
MOS
) indicates the (
ok
) or (
OK
) status, the front guard (
5
) can be
opened, or any previously applied program can be started again by
pressing the start button (
11
).
