HARDWARE ADJUSTMENTS

AIR PRESSURE

Set AIR PRESSURE to about 80 PSI for best accuracy. However, lower pressures will work. If you plant air fluctuates, set the regulator to the low end so that the dispense valves always see a consistent pressure. Lubricated air is NOT recommended. GBM Micro Blenders should be set to 40 PSI (2.7 bar). Vertical Valves used in removable hoppers on GBM Micro Blenders, and 100 and 200 series blenders, are more accurate at 60 PSI pressure setting.

LEVEL SENSOR

Sensor position; 200 and 400 series models only:

The sensor should protrude into the mix chamber about 1/4 inch past the inside surface of the stainless mounting plate. If it does not protrude far enough, it will sense the mounting plate itself. If it protrudes too far, it will sense the mix blade.

Adjusting sensor sensitivity:

1.The adjustment screw is located at the rear of the sensor.

It may be protected by a small plastic screw like cover. You will need a very small screwdriver to adjust it.

2.Fill the mix chamber until the sensor is about 3/4 covered.

3.Turn screw counter-clockwise until the LED goes OFF.

4.Then turn clockwise until the LED just goes ON.

5.Empty the chamber and check to be sure the sensor LED does not go on when the mix blade passes near it.

NOTE: 18 mm sensors, LED logic is reversed, ON when UNCOVERED.

WEIGH BIN DUMP VALVE

The WEIGH BIN DUMP VALVE should be adjusted to close softly. A

needle valve is installed next to the quick disconnect so that air flow to the flap air cylinder may be restricted. Adjust as required for a soft close.

SLIDE VALVES

Slide valves must move very freely. If they seem to jam slightly as they reach the full extended position (closed), this may be due to the air cylinder mount being slightly bent. If someone has pulled down or pushed up on the air cylinder, they may have bent the cylinder mount. You can correct this by pressing up or down on the cylinder as required to correct the problem.

If you process very hard pellets (polycarbinate and glass filled resins), your slide gate dispense valves may stick closed occasionally. We provide spacers that limit the full stoke of the air cylinder. This stops the slide from going any further then the just closed position and prevents jamming. Call us for information.

INTERNAL MIX MOTOR

and AUGER FEEDER FUSES

 

The

MIX MOTOR timed power source

and the AUGER FEEDER

OUTLETS are

driven by internal

solid state plug-in relays. A small 5

amp glass

fuse is

located to

the right of each

relay. A spare fuse

is also

located

on the board if replacement is necessary.
