WARNING!
Functions critical to safety!
You must test functions that protect you from harm in the case of emergency at
the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule.
 Under no circumstances extend the maintenance intervals for functions crit-
ical to safety, such as EMERGENCY STOP for example.
The maintenance intervals can be extended if no signs of wear and tear (damage
to seals or changes to the barrier fluid) are determined within the specified main-
tenance intervals.
Proceed as follows:
• If no signs of wear and tear are determined, extend the maintenance interval
by 20 % (or by 1 day if 20 % is less than 1 day).
• As soon as signs of wear and tear become visible, shorten the maintenance
interval by 20 %. Retain this maintenance interval as standard.

CAUTION!
In operation, the metering head heater becomes as hot as 80°C. The dis-
pensing material can thus also be hot
 Delay tasks on the metering head, until the metering head heater has cooled
down.
 If it is not possible to wait until the metering head heater has cooled down,
then take suitable measures to prevent injuries.

terial:
Content of mixing tube hard-
ened
Outlet openings partially Check outlet. Completely remove hardened

clogged material from outlet openings. If this is not
possible, use new outlet!
Air in lines Observe dispensing procedure. Air bubbles

in the lines cause irregular outlet of dispens-
ing material from the mixing tube.
Corrective measure: Bleed lines.
Weight check
Weight check Leaks at the seals can be a cause of insufficient dispensed material. Therefore
perform a weight check on systems equipped with this facility.

NOTICE
 Record the time at which the seals were last changed.
 If the seals suffer damage before the scheduled maintenance, the mainte-
nance interval should be shortened.
Metering unit
53 / 143
Disassemble of pneumatic unit
Why are the maintenance intervals not specified? No recommendation can be

made here as the maintenance intervals largely depend on the cycle time and
type of dispensing material.
You yourself should determine the intervals at which the seals need to be
changed.
Example of maintenance intervals

Example of mainte- Seals are damaged after 10 weeks. Shorten maintenance interval. In future
nance intervals change the seals after 8 weeks. (10 weeks - 20 % = 8 weeks)
Shorten the determined maintenance interval by 20 % if the seals are already
damaged before the scheduled maintenance interval.

Completely dismantle and clean the metering head to change the Variseals. If the
metering head is only partially dismantled, dispensing material (resin and hard-
ener) could come in contact with other parts of the dispenser, thus leading to
damage in the long term.

• Dispensing material does not harden properly
• Dosed amount too low
IF METERING PROBLEMS APPEAR

CAUTION!
Dispensing material can be harmful to health!
Dispensing material can be harmful to health due to its high chemical reactivity
and, after being heated, due to its high temperature, high thermal capacity and
adhesivity.
This applies particularly if the dispensing material gets into the eyes.
 Make sure that no material is dispensed while you are working at the dis-
penser outlet.
 Press the Quick Stop button before starting work.
 Wear protective gloves while working. See safety datasheet of the dispens-
ing material manufacturer for recommended protective glove material.
 Wear safety goggles.
