FOCKE MELER GLUING SOLUTIONS INSTALLATION
3-2
Electrical Consumption
In order to install a ‘MICRON+’ series melter/applicator, 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/applicator 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/applicator 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/applicator and output configuration,
are included in the table in the section ‘Electrical power connection’.
Compressed air
To install ‘MICRON+’ series melters/applicators, it is necessary to have a dry,
non-lubricated compressed air system with a maximum pressure of 6 bar.
The applicator’s internal pneumatic equipment is able to work with a
minimum of 0.5 bar, however, pressure lower than this will cause intermittent
operational anomalies.
The air consumption is according to the number of stroke made by the pump
cylinder, which in turn depends on the adhesive consumption during the
application. It is therefore necessary to estimate this consumption in all cases.
