Adjust Glue Tank Temperature:

To globally set all glue components to same temperature, do the following:

 

1)Press and hold tank key for three seconds; left display will flash

2)Use arrow key to scroll left display to 0

3)Press enter key

4)Right display flashes

5)Use keypad to enter temperature recommended by glue manufacturer; Aagard recommended glue temperature is 335°F - 350°F

6)Press tank key again (see first step); all components will begin to heat/cool to new temperature

 

Set Auto-Standby:

Configure auto-standby by setting parameters on the Nordson control panel. You can automatically go into standby mode a number of different ways. Typically, however, it is done after a certain amount of inactivity (0 to 1440 minutes, or 0-24 hours). You may also set the amount that the temperature will drop (default is 100°F). Additionally, you may take the tank out of standby manually using a function key, or automatically after a set amount of time. Information on how to configure these settings may be found in the Nordson Manual (Section 3, Setting Up the Melter).

 

Adjust Glue Tank Pressure:

Follow these instructions to set glue tank air pressure:

 

1)Gauge indicates the air pressure supplied to tank pump

2)Use Allen head adjusting screw located to right of gauge to adjust air pressure
