System depressurisation
The B4 NS melter is a pressurised application system with the corresponding
risks that such a system entails. This equipment includes a safety valve
(bypass valve) which limits the maximum pressure in the system, particularly
during continuous pumping with closed application applicators.
However, in this last case, even with the motor stopped, residual pressure may
remain in the circuit. This should be taken into account when carrying out any
work on the hydraulic circuit.
