4-3 Returning Fluid to the Tank

Returning Fluid to Tank (With Autovent Solenoid)

If the unit is to be moved from one process to another (i.e. mold
changes, etc.), the following steps must be taken to drain the mold
and process lines. Note that this is just the opposite of unit start
up/air purge:

1. Cool fluid to 100 degrees °F maximum.

2. Turn the

Pump Rev|Off|Fwd

switch

to Off.

3. Turn the

Pump Rev|Off|Fwd

switch

to Rev. The pump

will then run in reverse, drawing fluid from the mold and
lines, and into the reservoir tank.

4. Watch the sight glass to prevent overflow of the

reservoir tank.


!

CAUTION

The reservoir tank may not have adequate volume

to contain the total system capacity of fluid.

An overflowing reservoir allows hot fluid to escape

and become a potential fire and slip hazard.

The total capacity of the tank is 7 gallons (26.5 liters).

If it appears that the tank may overfill, connect a line from the

FILL

port of the reservoir tank to a clean auxiliary container.
