INSTALLATION
Electrical Consumption
In order to install a Macro series melter, we should take into consideration
the total consumption of the installation, including the consumption of the
installed hoses and applicators.
Before connecting, make sure that the voltage that is being connected to the
melter is the correct one appearing on the equipment’s characteristics plate.
Connect the machine and check to see if it is well grounded.
Warning: Risk of electrocution. Even when the equipment is turned off,
voltage remains in the intake terminals, which may be dangerous during
internal equipment manipulations.
Install a power switch for disconnecting the melter equipment from the
electrical network. It must be protected against overload and short circuits by
circuit breaker and install appropriate personal protection leads to mass by
differential switch.
Consumption figures, according to melter and output configuration, are
included in the table in the section ‘Electrical power connection’.
Compressed air
As an option, a pneumatically activated by-pass valve may be installed. If this
is added to the system, a dry, unlubricated compressed air network must be
available, with a maximum pressure of 6 bar.
The by-pass valve consumes next to no air, given that this is a pressurized
closed circuit.
