Commissioning & Set Up Procedures
CAUTION
Overalls and eye protection must be worn at all times during operation of the
machine.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the catalyst overpressure valve. If in any doubt about operation or
adjustment of any part of this machine please contact Magnum Venus Magnum
Venus Plastech Ltd
IMPORTANT NOTE
The resin pump upper collars must be filled with Magnum Venus Plastech Pump
Lubricant (supplied) to clean and lubricate pump seals. Fill to approximately half full.
An oiler/lubricator must NOT be used in the air supply to the machine. Air must be
filtered and dry at 6-8 bar (85-115 psi).
The Megaject MK V is tested and secured against leaks prior to despatch. It is
essential that the inlet tube connected to the resin pick up pipe and filter remain tight
and sealed at all times to prevent air ingress into the resin system.
We recommend the use of Acetone as the primary choice of cleaning solvent. If a
different solvent system is to be used please contact Magnum Venus Plastech for
details of changes required.
Note: If the machine is to be fed directly from a resin tank it may not be possible to use
the resin pick up pipe and filter supplied. A suitable in-line filtering system is
available from Magnum Venus Plastech TT
