4-2 Shutting Down the Unit
UNIT SHUT DOWN (WITH AUTOVENT SOLENOID OR MANUAL VENT VALVE)
Cool the unit down by switching the Mode switch to the "Manual Cool" position. This will
disable the heaters ( i.e. prevent the controller from turning them on) and open the cool solenoid.
Fluid temperature can be monitored on the controller display during cool down. When fluid
temperature is below 120ºF, depress the PUMP STOP button to turn the unit off.
4-3 Returning Fluid to the Tank
RETURNING FLUID TO TANK
If the unit is to be moved from one process to another (i.e. mold changes, etc.), the following
steps must be taken to drain the mold and process lines. Note that this is just the opposite of unit
start up/air purge:
1. Cool fluid to 150°F (66°C) maximum.
2. Depress the PUMP STOP push button.
3. Close the Return Valve.
4. Open the Blow Off Valve. (with autovent, the valve will open on its own)
5. Depress and hold the PUMP REVERSE push-button. The pump will then run in
reverse, drawing fluid from the mold and lines, and into the reservoir tank.
6. Watch the sight glass to prevent overflow of the reservoir tank.
! CAUTION
The reservoir tank may not have adequate volume
to contain the total system capacity of fluid.
An overflowing reservoir allows hot fluid to escape
and become a potential fire and slip hazard.
The total capacity of the tank can be found on page 14.
If it appears that the tank may overfill, connect a line from the
FILL port of the reservoir tank to
a clean auxiliary container.
