Intended Use
DuraBlue melters are specifically designed to:
S Melt and pump solid‐form hot melt materials that are engineered to be
liquified and extruded at temperatures below 230 _C (450 _F) for 240
VAC melters or below 200 _C (400 _F) for 120 VAC melters
S Be used with compatible hot melt hoses and applicators that are
manufactured by Nordson Corporation
S Be used in non‐explosive environments
Limitations of Use
Use DuraBlue melters only for the purpose for which they are designed.
DuraBlue melters should not be used:
S to melt or pump polyurethane reactive hot melt materials or any other
material that creates a health or safety hazard when heated
S in environments that will require the melter to be cleaned using a
water wash or spray
Modes of Operation
DuraBlue melters operate in the following modes:
Automatic scan—The melter automatically checks and displays the
current temperature of the tank, hoses, and applicators to confirm that
they are within their pre‐defined temperature range. By default, the melter
is always in the automatic scan mode unless it is placed into another
operating mode.
Standby—The temperatures of the tank, hoses, and applicators are
reduced down from their operating temperature (hereafter referred to as
setpoint temperature) by a pre‐set number of degrees.
Setup—The setup mode is used to configure melter control options and
features and to review stored operating data. To prevent unauthorized
changes to the melter's configuration, the melter can be
password‐protected.
Fault—The melter alerts the operator when an abnormal event occurs.
