Setpoint Temperature of the Tank, Hoses, and Guns
The melter is shipped from the factory with the tank setpoint temperature at
175 C (350 F) and the hose and gun setpoint temperatures at 0 degrees
(turned off).
Before the melter can be used, a setpoint temperature must be assigned to
the tank, hoses, and guns. Assign setpoint temperatures using any of the
following methods:
Global—The tank and all hoses and guns are set to the same setpoint
temperature.
Global‐by‐component group—All of the hoses or all of the guns are set
to the same setpoint temperature.
Individual Component—The setpoint temperature of the tank and each
hose and gun is set individually.
Since most manufacturing processes will require the tank, hoses, and guns
to be set to the same temperature, only the global method of assigning
setpoint temperatures is described in this section. For information about the
other two methods of assigning setpoint temperatures, refer to Adjusting
Component Temperatures in Section 4, Operation.
As with operating parameters, you can also save and restore setpoint
temperatures and review past changes that were made to setpoint
temperatures.
