10. With the flushing epoxy inside the homogeniser, turn off all temperature outputs and
allow the whole machine to cool to ambient temperature.
11. Once at room temperature, open the load valve and allow all flushing epoxy to drain into
the waste container.
WARNING! BEFORE FLUSHING MACHINE WITH SOLVENT ENSURE THAT
ALL HEATED ZONES (INCLUDING AUTOSPRUE) ARE AT AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE!
12. Place Autosprue waste hose into a container of solvent. Switch homogeniser to vacuum.
13. Open inject valve and allow a sufficient quantity of solvent to be loaded through the
Autosprue and injection hose.
14. Close inject valve. Allow solvent to circulate inside homogeniser under vacuum for 2-3
minutes.
15. Ensure homogeniser pressure is set to zero. Switch homogeniser to pressure. Open
load valve and allow solvent to drain from homogeniser into waste container.
16. Repeat steps 12-15 if necessary.
B) For two component resin systems. (liquid at room temperature)
Without Autosprue
WARNING! BEFORE FLUSHING MACHINE WITH SOLVENT ENSURE THAT
ALL HEATED ZONES ARE AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURE!
1. Turn homogeniser pressure to zero and allow sufficient time for pressure to decay.
2. Disconnect injection hose from mould.
3. Switch homogeniser to vacuum.
4. Open inject valve and allow all resin in injection hose to be drawn into the homogeniser.
5. Place waste container under load pipe. Close inject valve. Ensure homogeniser
pressure is set to zero. Switch homogeniser to pressure.
6. Open load valve and allow resin to flow into waste container.
7. Close load valve. Switch homogeniser to vacuum.
8. Place injection hose into a container of solvent. Switch homogeniser to vacuum.
9. Open inject valve and allow a sufficient quantity of solvent to be loaded through the
injection hose.
10. Close inject valve. Allow solvent to circulate inside homogeniser under vacuum for 2-3
minutes.
11. Ensure homogeniser pressure is set to zero. Switch homogeniser to pressure. Open
load valve and allow solvent to drain from homogeniser into waste container.
12. Repeat steps 8-11 if necessary.
With Autosprue
WARNING! BEFORE FLUSHING MACHINE WITH SOLVENT ENSURE THAT
ALL HEATED ZONES (INCLUDING AUTOSPRUE) ARE AT AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE!
1. Turn homogeniser pressure to zero and allow sufficient time for pressure to decay.
Ensure Autosprue is closed.
2. Switch homogeniser to vacuum.
3. Open inject valve and allow all resin in injection hose and Autosprue to be drawn into the
homogeniser.
