You will install the WT/ST tank on the extrusion line, down- stream of the extruder and any calibration/sizing equipment.

1 Make sure the installation area provides:

❒A source of water. City, tower or chilled water may be used. Water supply flow should be about 80 gpm @ 60-70 psi {6.1 liters/sec @ 4.8-5.5 bars}.

❒A grounded 3-phase power source supplying the correct current and voltage for the recirculation sys- tem on your tank. Check the serial tag for the correct amps and voltage. Electrical power is required only if you have the recirculation system option.

❒Minimum clearance for safe operation and mainte- nance. The distance, or air gap, between the face of the die or sizing tank and the upstream end of the WT/ST tank may be up to 12 inches (305 mm). Allow at least 12 to 24 inches (305 to 610 mm) between the downstream end of the tank and the upstream end of the puller to roll the tank away from the extruder for maintenance.

2 Determine the correct position for the tank on the extrusion line.

There may be an additional cooling tank or an optional laser gauge/diameter gauge between the downstream end of the WT/ST tank and the puller. Allow 1 to 2 feet (305 to 610 mm) between the WT/ST tank and an additional cool- ing tank. Allow 1 to 3 feet (305 to 914 mm) between the WT/ST tank and a laser gauge and between a laser gauge and the puller.

3 Install v-rails.If your tank comes with v-groove cast- ers, you may choose to use v-rails to insure repeatable tank alignment. The overall length of the rails will be determined by equipment sharing the rails. The v-rails should be long enough to move all downstream equipment away from the extruder for removal of the screw.

Typically, the rails should be 2 to 4 feet (610 to 1219 mm) longer than the WT/ST tank. The distance between the centers of the v-groove casters on standard WT/ST tanks is 22 inches (558.8 mm). Optional widths may have been ordered.
