Glossary of Terms

Air Chop - the process of mixing air and solvent together during the flush cycle to help clean the lines and reduce solvent usage.

Air Chop Time- duration of each activation of the air purge valve during a chop sequence. User settable from 0.0-99.9 seconds.

Analog - relating to, or being a device in which data are represented by continuously variable, measurable, physical quantities, such as length, width, voltage, or pressure.

Chop Time- refers to the total length of the chop sequence during a purge. User settable from 0-999 sec- onds.

Closed Loop Flow Control - refers to the process when the flow rate is adjusted automatically to maintain a constant flow.

Color/Catalyst Dump - refers to the time required to flush the lines from the color or catalyst change module to the mix manifold during a color or catalyst change.

Color/Catalyst Fill - refers to the time required to fill the lines from the color or catalyst change module to the mix manifold.

Coriolis Meter - a non-intrusive flow meter often used in low flow applications or with light viscosity, shear sensi- tive, or acid catalyzed materials. This meter uses vibra- tion to measure flow.

Digital Input and Output - a description of data which is transmitted as a sequence of discrete symbols, most commonly this means binary data represented using electronic or electromagnetic signals.

Discrete I/O - refers to data that constitutes a separate entity and has direct communication to another control.

Dose Size - the amount of resin (A) and catalyst (B) that is dispensed into an integrator.

Dose Time Alarm - the amount of time that is allowed for a dose to occur before an alarm occurs.

Dynamic Dosing - Component A dispenses constantly. Component B dispenses intermittently in the necessary volume to attain the mix ratio.

Ethernet - a method for directly connecting a computer to a network or equipment in the same physical location.

Fiber Optic Communication - the use of light to trans- mit communication signals.

Final Purge Source- source of the media used in the final purge cycle. User settable to air purge valve, sol- vent purge valve, or 3rd purge valve.

Final Purge Time- duration of the final purge cycle. User settable from 0-999 seconds.

First Purge Source- source of the media used in the first purge cycle. User settable to air purge valve, sol- vent purge valve, or 3rd purge valve

First Purge Time- duration of the first purge cycle. User settable from 0-999 seconds.

Flow Control Resolution - a settable value that allows the flow control system to maximize its performance. The value is based on maximum desired flow rates.

Flow Rate Analog Signal - the type of communication signal that can be used on the ProControl module.

Flow Rate Tolerance - the settable percent of accept- able variance that the system will allow before a flow rate warning occurs.

Flow Set Point - a predefined flow rate target.

Flush Volume Check - system monitors flush volume. E-11 Alarm occurs if minimum volume is not achieved. Minimum flush volume is user settable (0-999 cc).

Grand Total - a non-resettable value that shows the total amount of material dispensed through the system.

Gun Trigger Input Signal - used to manage ratio assurance dose times and flow control processes.

Intrinsically Safe (IS) - refers to the ability to locate cer- tain components in a hazardous location.

Idle - if the gun is not triggered for 2 minutes the system enters Idle mode. Trigger the gun to resume operation.
