IMP I IMP/P I SAM Hot Runner Controllers Instruction Manual

The IMP controller also sends alarm status conditions to the SAM

auxiliary module for annunciation and remote control

functions.

Installation (IMP Series Only)

All IMP Series controllers are ready to use as shipped from

the factory. Prior to installation into a mainframe, make sure the

voltage, Hz, and degree options are as ordered and correspond to

the Product ID label.

Never insert or remove a controller from a mainframe

with the AC power on. Hazardous potentials exist on

components inside the mainframe and controller. Always

disconnect AC power to the mainframe when servicing.

To install a plug-in controller into a mainframe, release the

locking device on the lower edge of the unit by pulling the

plunger gently away from the panel. Align the upper and lower

edges of the printed circuit board on the controller with the

mainframe card guide slot and slide in until the rear connector

is completely engaged. Lock the controller into the frame by

depressing the plunger on the locking device.
