Installation
Compressed Air
To achieve maximum hot melt output, the melter must be connected to an air supply that is capable of providing a maximum of 6.2 Bar (90 psi) of dry, nonlubricated air. The actual pressure required for the melter to support your manufacturing process will depend on such factors as the type of hot melt and gun you are using and the required dimensions of the hot melt bead.
NOTE:
The minimum operating air pressure is 0.7 bar (10 psi). Operating the melter with the air pressure set to less than 0.7 bar (10 psi) may cause the pump to function erratically.
Nordson recommends that an isolation valve be installed in the plant air supply line just before the melter.
Other Considerations
Consider the following additional factors when evaluating where to install the melter.
The maximum distance between the melter and each gun is dictated by the power requirement of each hose. Refer to Appendix A,
Calculating
Melter Power Requirements
, for information about how to determine the maximum allowable length.
The operator must be able to safely reach the control panel and accurately monitor the control panel indicators.
The operator must be able to safely observe the level of hot melt inside the tank.
The melter must be installed so that it can be safely removed from its sub‐base.
The melter must be installed away from areas with strong drafts or where sudden temperature changes occur.
The melter must be installed where it will be in conformance with the ventilation requirements specified in the Material Safety Data Sheet for the hot melt being used.
The melter should not be exposed to excessive vibration.
P4 and P7 melters provide an auxiliary hose port at the bottom of the manifold. If the auxiliary hose port will be used, the parent machine or other support structure must provide clearance under the melter to connect the hose to the auxiliary hose port.

Setting Up the Melter
After physically installing the melter, it must be set up to support your manufacturing process. Melter setup consists of enabling or making changes to factory‐set operating parameters that affect the use and function of the melter. The operating temperature (set‐point) of the tank and each hose and gun is also established during melter setup.
The melter is shipped from the factory with the most commonly used operating parameters already set up. The factory setup can be modified at any time to suit your manufacturing process.
Quick Setup
Table 3‐4 describes the most commonly used operating parameters and their
factory settings. Review the table to determine if the factory settings for each parameter will support your manufacturing process. If the default values for each of these operating parameters are appropriate for your manufacturing process, then no melter setup is required. Go directly to

Set‐point Temperature of the Tank, Hoses, and Guns
The melter is shipped from the factory with the tank set‐point temperature at
175
C (350
F) and the hose and gun set‐point temperatures at 0 degrees
(turned off).
Before the melter can be used, a set‐point temperature must be assigned to the tank, hoses, and guns. Assign set‐point temperatures using any of the following methods:
Global
—The tank and all hoses and guns are set to the same set‐point temperature.
Global‐by‐component group
—All of the hoses or all of the guns are set to the same set‐point temperature.
Individual Component
—The set‐point temperature of the tank and each hose and gun is set individually.
Since most manufacturing processes will require the tank, hoses, and guns to be set to the same temperature, only the global method of assigning set‐point temperatures is described in this section. For information about the other two methods of assigning set‐point temperatures, refer to Section 4,
Adjusting Component Temperatures
.
As with operating parameters, you can also save and restore set‐point temperatures and review past changes that were made to set‐point temperatures.

Installing Melter Inputs
ProBlue melters are equipped with four standard inputs. Each input is customer‐wired to the melter and then set up to provide one of the following control options:
Place the melter into the standby mode
Turn the heaters on and off
Enable or disable a specific hose or gun
Turn the pump on and off
Inputs are activated using a constant 10 to 30 VDC signal voltage, which is supplied by the customer’s control equipment. The inputs are not polarity sensitive.
WARNING!
The operator can override the melter inputs by using the control panel function keys. Ensure that the control logic for any external device that sends an input signal to the melter is programmed to prevent the creation of an unsafe condition in the event that the operator overrides an external input to the melter.
Opening the electrical enclosure door
To wire inputs to the melter
1. Route a 2‐, 4, 6, or 8‐conductor signal cable from the control equipment to the melter, and through the PG‐16 penetration in the sub‐base. Use rigid or flexible conduit or a suitable strain relief to protect the cable from the sharp edge of the conduit penetration.
NOTE:
Use a signal cable suitable for NEC class1 remote control and signaling circuits. To reduce the possibility of electrical shorting, route the cable so that it does not touch nearby circuit boards.

More About Heated Components
The melter contains three groups of heated components. These are the tank group, which contains the tank and the manifold, the hose group, and the gun group. Component groups are represented on the control panel by the component keys shown to the left.
Component keys
(tank, hose, and gun)
Heated components within each group are identified by their position number. The position of the tank and pump is fixed at 1. Hose and gun position numbers are automatically assigned based on the hose/gun receptacle they are connected to. For example, the position numbers of a hose/gun pair that is connected to the second receptacle would be hose position 2 and gun position 2.
The number of hose/gun receptacles available on each melter depends on the configuration in which the melter was ordered. ProBlue adhesive melters may have either two, four, or six hose/gun receptacles. An optional expansion base may be ordered that adds receptacles for two additional hoses/guns.

Starting the Melter
Before starting the melter for the first time, confirm that the melter is fully installed including any required inputs and outputs, gun drivers, pattern controllers, and timers melter’s operating parameters are set up to support the current manufacturing process
Refer to Section 3,
Installation
, if any of the items listed above are not complete.
Melter control switch (on/off)
Heaters LED
Automatic scan sequence
To start the melter
1. Switch the melter on.
The melter:
Tests the control panel LEDs
Turns on the heaters (the heaters LED turns green)
Begins to automatically scan through and display the actual temperature of the tank and each hose and gun that has a set‐point temperature that is greater than zero degrees. The sequence of the automatic scan is: tank, each hose and gun pair, and then back to the tank.
Turns on the ready LED (green) when the tank and all of the hoses and guns are within 3 C (5 F) of their assigned set‐point temperature.
NOTE:
Appendix D contains a functional description of the pump.
2. Check the air pressure gauge on the front of the melter to confirm that the operating air pressure is set correctly.
NOTE:
The minimum operating air pressure is 0.7 bar (10 psi).
Operating the melter with the air pressure set to less than 0.7 bar (10 psi) may cause the pump to function erratically.

If the melter is switched on when the temperature of the tank is 27 C (50
F) or greater below its assigned set‐point temperature (cold start condition), the ready LED will not turn on until the ready delay (defined when the melter was set up) has elapsed.
The time remaining on the ready delay
(in minutes) appears in right display at the end of every scan cycle. When only one minute remains in the ready delay time, the right display counts down in seconds.
You can by‐pass the ready delay time by pressing the
Heaters
key twice.
The appearance of F4 in the right display immediately after the melter is switched on indicates a problem with the melter’s processor or main board.
The appearance of F1 in the right display immediately after starting the melter indicates that a hose or gun cordset may be loose or disconnected.
If the melter is set up for manual pump activation, the pump LED will not turn on when the melter is ready.
The condition of one or more inputs, may prevent the heaters from turning on.
If the seven‐day clock feature was set up and turned on when the melter was last switched off, the clock will automatically turn on the next time the melter is switched on.
It is normal for the pump to slowly cycle when no hot melt is being dispensed from the guns.
If a power failure occurs, the melter will restart in its normal heat‐up cycle, even if the heaters were off or the melter was in standby prior to the power failure. If the seven‐day clock was on prior to the power failure, the melter will restart in the mode dictated by the clock schedule at the time the melter restarts.

How F1, F2, and F3 Faults are Handled
When the melter detects an F1, F2, or an F3 fault:
1. The automatic scan stops and the melter begins to monitor the potential fault for up to two minutes. The ready and heater LEDs remain on during the two‐minute time period. If, at any time during the two‐minute period, the melter detects that the fault condition no longer exists, the melter will return to the automatic scan mode.
2. The LED on the affected component key (tank, hose, or gun) turns on to indicate the type of component that has, or is, failing.
3. The right display indicates the type of fault (F1, F2, or F3).
4. The left display indicates, as follows, the component that has, or is, failing.
If the LED on the tank key is on, the left display will indicate either 1 for the tank or 2 for the manifold.
If the LED on the hose or gun key is on, the left display will indicate the number of the affected hose or gun.
5. If the fault condition still exists at the end of the two‐minute monitoring period, the ready LED will turn off, the red fault LED will turn on, the heaters turn off, and the melter records the fault in the fault log. Refer to
To review the fault log
earlier in this section.

How F4 Faults are Handled
When the melter detects an F4 fault:
1. The ready LED turns off and the red fault LED turns on.
2. All of the component key LEDs (tank, hose, and gun) turn off.
3. The right display indicates F4.
4. The left display indicates a sub‐code. Sub‐codes classify the fault as being fatal or nonfatal. The affect on the melter of each of these two classes of F4 faults is:
Fatal
—The fault LED turns on and stays on and the melter stops functioning completely.
Nonfatal
—The fault LED turns on for five seconds, but the heaters and pump continue to operate normally. Nonfatal faults affect the internal clock and the optional I/Os.
Refer to Section 6,
Troubleshooting
, for information about diagnosing F4 faults.
5. The melter records the fault in the fault log. Refer to

Monitor the Level of Hot Melt in the Tank
The tank contains a low‐level float switch. When the volume of hot melt in the tank drops below one‐half of the tank’s rated capacity, the float switch turns on the low‐level LED located inside the tank key.
Low‐level LED (yellow)
Nordson recommends that the tank be kept at least one‐half full while the melter is operating.
NOTE:
The melter is also equipped with a low‐level output that can be connected to a customer‐supplied signaling device or process control system. Refer to Section 3,
Installing Melter Outputs
, for information about using the low‐level output.
Monitor and Adjust the Operating Air Pressure
The air pressure gauge located on the front of the melter indicates the air pressure that is supplied to the melter’s pump. The air pressure must be adjusted to meet the requirements of your manufacturing process.
Pressure regulator and adjustment screw
NOTE:
The minimum operating air pressure is 0.7 bar (10 psi). Operating the melter with the air pressure set to less than 0.7 bar (10 psi) may cause the pump to function erratically.
Use the adjustment screw located to the right of the pressure gauge to adjust the operating air pressure.
Typically, adjustments to the operating air pressure are made in order to change the volume of hot melt dispensed by the guns. Other factors such as the temperature of the hot melt, the speed of the manufacturing line, and the type and size of the nozzles used on the guns also impact the volume of hot melt that is dispensed.
CAUTION!
Do not force the air pressure adjustment screw beyond its normal range of adjustment. Forcing the adjustment screw beyond its normal range of adjustment will damage the pneumatic assembly.

Seven‐day Clock Key
Use the seven‐day clock key to turn the melter’s clock feature on and off.
When the clock is on, the temperature of each heated component is automatically regulated based on a set of user‐defined schedules.
Seven‐day clock key
To accommodate daily shift work and non‐working days, four clock schedules are available. Schedules 1, 2, and 3 are used to specify when the heaters should turn on and off or when the melter should enter and exit the standby mode. Schedule 0 is used to keep the melter in the last condition dictated by the clock (heaters on or off, or standby).
When a clock schedule calls for the heaters to be on, the heaters are regulated at their pre‐assigned set‐point temperatures. When the clock activates the standby mode, the set‐point temperature of each component is temporarily reduced by a pre‐set standby delta.
Refer to Appendix B,
Operating Parameters
,
Seven‐day Clock
, for information about setting up the seven‐day clock and the standby delta.
If the melter is switched off while the clock is on, the clock will automatically turn back on the next time the melter is switched back on.
If the heaters are manually turned off at the time that a clock schedule calls for the heaters to be on, the heaters will not turn back on until the next clock schedule calls for them to be on.
The clock will still operate when the melter is faulting or is in the setup mode.
If F4 appears in the right display when you press the clock key, the internal clock function has failed.

Standby Key
Standby key
Use the standby key to manually place the melter into, and take it out of, the standby mode. Using the standby mode during periods of time when the melter is inactive helps to conserve energy and allows heated components to quickly return to their set‐point temperatures when the melter is once again needed.
When the melter is placed into the standby mode, the temperatures of all components are reduced down from their set‐point temperature by a pre‐set standby delta. The melter will remain in the standby mode until the standby key is pressed or the function of one of the operating parameters takes the melter out of the standby mode.
If the melter was set up to use the manual standby timer
(parameter 26), pressing the standby key will place the melter in the standby mode for the period of time specified by the timer. After the manual standby time has elapsed, the melter will once again begin heating all of the components to their assigned set‐point temperature.
Using the standby key overrides the control of the melter (on or off) by the seven‐day clock or a remote input.
Refer to Section 3,

Maintenance
Replacing the Filter
ProBlue melters are equipped with a 100‐mesh (.15 mm) disposable hot melt filter. The filter removes debris and char from the hot melt as it flows from the tank. Hot melt flows from the inside to the outside of the filter, trapping contaminants inside the filter. There is no need to back‐flush or clean the filter.
Filter location
When the filter reaches the end of its service life, it should be replaced. The factors that determine the service life of the filter are: the type, grade, and purity of the solid‐form hot melt the set point temperature of the tank the period of time that the hot melt remains in the tank
The filter should also be replaced when making the change to a different type or grade of hot melt.
To determine the optimal service life for the filter, monitor and compare the total number of hours that the heaters are on with observations of: the purity of the dispensed hot melt increases in operating pressure the frequency of gun nozzle replacement or cleaning
Hot melt flow path
Monitoring the Life of the Filter
As an aid to ensuring that the filter is replaced at the end of its service life, the melter is equipped with a service LED that turns on at the end of a customer‐defined time period. You can use this feature to alert you when it is time to change the filter. Refer to Section 3,
Setting Up the Melter
, for information about the service interval time.
When the service LED turns on, replace the filter, and then press the
Clear/Reset
key to reset the timer and turn off the service LED.
NOTE:
The melter must be in the automatic scan mode when you press the

Calculating Melter Power Requirements
A-1
Appendix
A
Calculating Melter Power Requirements
Before locating the melter on the production floor or attaching hoses and guns to the melter, you must calculate the electrical power required by the hoses and guns and confirm that the required power does not exceed maximum allowable wattages. Properly calculating melter power requirements will prevent damage to the melter and identify the maximum allowable distance between the melter and the point at which the hot melt is dispensed.
The following three maximum wattages must be considered when calculating the power required by the hoses and guns.
Single‐component maximum
—The wattage of any single hose or gun
Hose/gun pair maximum
—The wattage of any hose and gun
(hose/gun pair)
Hose/gun module maximum
—The wattage of any two hoses and two guns (two hose/gun pairs)
If your Nordson representative has already calculated the hose/gun power requirements and confirmed that the maximum allowable wattages will not be exceeded, then no further calculation is necessary. However, you should re‐evaluate the hose and gun power requirements before you: add a new hose or gun to the melter that was not factored into the original wattage evaluation replace an existing hose with a longer hose or an existing gun with a larger gun
2014 Nordson Corporation
Part 1024496_06
A-2
Calculating Melter Power Requirements
To evaluate the hose/gun power requirements
1. Match each hose and gun pair and then match each pair to the hose/gun module it will be connected to on the back of the melter.
2. Examine the identification tag or plate on each hose and gun and record
the wattage of each in Table A‐1.
3. Add the sum of the wattages for each hose/gun pair and the combined total wattage for each hose/gun module.
4. Compare the wattages tabulated in Table A‐1 with the associated maximum allowable wattages listed in Table A‐2.
5. Do
one
of the following:
If each of the wattages calculated in step 3
does not
exceed the associated maximum allowable wattages listed in Table A‐2, then the power required by the hoses and guns is within acceptable limits.
If any of the wattages calculated in step 3
does
exceed an associated maximum allowable wattage listed in Table A‐2, then the configuration or position of the hose/gun pairs must be rearranged or shorter hoses must be used in order to reduce the power requirement.

Operating Parameters
Seven‐day Clock
Before setting up the clock, refer to
Using Melter Function Keys
in Section4,
Operation
, to familiarize yourself with the function and use of the clock feature.
If you are unfamiliar with the procedure for accessing and editing operating parameters, refer to Section 3,
Installation, Setting Up the Melter
.
To set the clock
Refer to the examples on the next page.
1. Use parameter 50 to select the current day of the week.
2. Use parameter 51 to set the current time of day.
3. Create schedule 1 by: a. Setting parameters 55 and 56 to the time of the day that the heaters should turn on and off.
b. Setting parameters 57 and 58 to the time of the day that the melter should enter and exit the standby mode.
4. Using parameters 60 through 68, create schedules 2 and 3 by repeating step 3.
5. Use parameters 71 through 77 to assign which of the four schedules should be used on each day of the week. Up to three schedules may be assigned each day (to support three work shifts). Each of the eight control options (0 to 7) that is available in parameters 71 through 77 assigns a different combination of the three schedules. Option 0 is used hold the melter in the state dictated by the last clock transition until the next clock transition occurs.
6. Press the
Clock
key.
Seven‐day clock key
In order for the clock to operate continuously throughout the week, a valid schedule must be assigned to every day of the week (parameters 71 through 77).
To prevent unintentional activation of the clock the default setting for parameters 71 through
77 is schedule 0, which has no time values assigned to it. With the default set to schedule 0, unintentionally pressing the clock key will have no affect on the melter.

SP Pump Diagnostics and Repair
WARNING!
Allow only personnel with appropriate training and experience to operate or service the equipment. The use of untrained or inexperienced personnel to operate or service the equipment can result in injury, including death, to themselves and others, and damage to the equipment.
Introduction
This appendix provides comprehensive diagnostic and repair information for the SP pump used in all ProBlue adhesive melters. Before using the information provided in this appendix to diagnose or repair your pump, ensure that you have eliminated all conditions that might otherwise be mistaken for a failure of the pump. Refer to Section 6,
Troubleshooting.
NOTE:
The procedures and illustrations in this section are specific to 15:1 pumps, but can be used for 6:1 pumps as well. Refer to the pump‐specific parts lists in Section 7,
Parts
, when performing the procedures in this section.
Pump Function
The pump is double‐acting—material is discharged from the pump during both the upward and downward stroke of the piston.
The pump consists of an air section and a hydraulic section. Air is supplied to the pump through an air filter and a regulator. From the regulator, air flows to an air valve inside the air section. The air valve directs air into either the upper or lower portion of the air cylinder, which forces the piston assembly up or down. The lower end of the piston assembly contains a pressure ball valve. At the bottom of the hydraulic section is a siphon ball valve.

Part 1024496_06
D-2
SP Pump Diagnostics and Repair
Pump Function
(contd)
When the air valve directs the stroke of the piston upwards, the piston creates suction within the pump body, which opens the siphon ball valve and closes the pressure ball valve. As the piston moves upwards, material is simultaneously drawn into the pump below the pressure ball valve and forced out of the pump chamber above the pressure ball valve. Material leaving the pump chamber passes through a filter and then into a manifold, where it is distributed to the hoses/guns.
Attached to the piston assembly is a shifter fork. The fork travels along the shaft of the actuator assembly that has a magnet at both ends. When the stroke of the piston carries the shifter fork upwards, a magnet in the shifter fork attracts the magnet at the end of the actuator, which shifts the position of the air valve. When the valve shifts, air is redirected to the opposite side of the air cylinder, which forces the piston downwards.
On the piston downward stroke, material pressure below the piston closes the siphon ball valve and opens the pressure ball valve. As the piston moves downwards, material below the pressure ball valve is displaced, and forced through the pressure ball valve and out of the pump chamber, where again, it passes through the filter and into the manifold.
Pump Isolation Valve
To prevent siphoning of the tank when the pump is removed from the manifold, the manifold is equipped with an isolation valve.
Pressure Discharge Valve
The manifold is equipped with a pressure discharge valve. When the pump is switched off at the control panel, air is removed from the top of the valve causing it to open. When the valve opens, pressurized material within the pump and manifold is bypassed through the pressure discharge valve back to the tank.

Pump Diagnostics
To determine why the pump has failed, you will, in most cases, have to partially or fully disassemble the pump. To assist you in determining the
appropriate level of disassembly, Table D‐1 provides a logical breakdown of
the three types of pump failures, the potential conditions that could produce each failure, and the disassembly procedure(s) in which potential condition(s) can be examined.
Disassembly procedures are provided in
Pump Disassembly and

Pump Disassembly and Reassembly
This part provides sequential pump disassembly procedures. Unless otherwise noted in the
Special Reassembly Instructions
, which are provided in each procedure, reassembly of the pump is the reverse of the disassembly.
Within each disassembly procedure, is a check/repair table that describes
what specific conditions (from Table D‐1) to inspect for while disassembling
the pump, service details, and component part numbers.
Melter Preparation
The melter must be brought up to operating temperature before the pump can be removed and disassembled. Once the pump is removed, the molten material within the pump will remain workable only for a short period of time.
If necessary, use a heat gun to warm the pump assembly during disassembly.

Introduction
Safety
Before installing or operating the transformer or melter, read the safety information provided in Section 1,
Safety
.
Intended Use
The 1.5 kVA and 3.0 kVA transformers can only be used with ProBlue adhesive melters that are specifically designed for 400/480 volt electrical service.
Use an input electrical service rated at 400 volts 3‐phase without a neutral or 480 volts 3‐phase without a neutral.
Unintended Use

Transformer Sizing
Review the following transformer sizing procedure to ensure that your transformer is correctly sized for the number and type of hoses/guns you intend to use.
To size your transformer
1. Determine the total power consumption (in watts) at 230 volts for all of
your hoses and guns. Table E‐1 lists the wattages of common hoses and
guns that are sold by Nordson Corporation. If your hose or gun is not
listed in Table E‐1, refer to the identification tag that is affixed to the
hose/gun.
2. Calculate the kVA rating of the required transformer by dividing the total wattage calculated in step 1 by 1000.
Example
From Table E‐1, an application requires two 1.8 m Auto hoses at 155
watts each and two H‐402 (T‐LP) guns at 185 watts each.
The combined wattage of the selected hoses and guns is 680 watts.
680 B 1000
=
0.68 kVA
In this example, the 1.5 kVA transformer would be adequate.

Transformer Function
Input electrical service of 400 or 480 volts is split between the melter heaters and the transformer(s). The melter’s manifold and tank heaters operate on line voltage, which is passed through the transformer to the melter using a special wire harness. The melter’s CPU controls the duty cycle of the heaters. No change in melter programming is required in order for the transformer to operate.
The transformer(s) reduces the input electrical service to 230 volts and directs the reduced voltage to the melter’s main circuit board. The main circuit board uses this voltage to power the hoses and guns and provide control power to the CPU.
CPU‐generated control signals are fed to a driver board in the transformer which uses high‐power TRIACs to switch power to the manifold and tank heaters.
