SELECTED MODELS - SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

This section relates SPECIAL information about a few selected models.

	MICRO PULSE
Micro Pulse valves are	available on models:
GB/WSB MB	(MICRO Blender) with optional MICRO PULSE valves.
GB/WSB 122	with optional MICRO PULSE valves.
GB/WSB 131	with optional MICRO PULSE valves.
GB/WSB 140	with optional MICRO PULSE valves.
GB/WSB 240R	with optional MICRO PULSE valves.
GB/WSB 440R	with optional MICRO PULSE valves.

These models may use our "MICRO PULSE" metering system for Color and Additive components.

PULSED OUTPUT parameters control the on/off timing, or pulsing, of the valves. The controlling parameters are the "_PO" component parameters.

When set to 00000, normal slide gate operation occurs.

When set to a value, such as 00101, power will pulse ON then OFF, at 1/10 second time intervals each way. This ON/OFF cycling will repeat for the entire dispense time.

When using a MICRO PULSE valve, you must set the related _PO parameter to 00101.

If overall blender throughput is too low, you may increase the metering rate of each Micro Pulse device by adjusting the cylinder air flow control valves for higher flow rate. This causes more rapid movement of the cylinder, ejecting more pellets per pulse. The drawback is noisy operation.

We recommend air flow be adjusted for quiet operation, but assuring full valve movement per on/off cycle. We have already done this. No further adjustment should be necessary.

The approximate correct adjustments are:

At nose of cylinder, 1.5 full turns out from full closed. At rear of cylinder, 2.5 full turns out from full closed. MICRO BLENDER slant valves, adjust by sound.

On fixed hoppers with horizontal micro pulse valves, CLEAN OUT of the hopper can be accomplished by opening the "clean out" port provided under the valve. Turn to one side to allow material to drain.

MICRO PULSE - ACCURACY

All MICRO PULSE valves are more accurate if the associated PT parameter is set to 00090. Read PT parameter in the PARAMETER section.
