CHAPTER 1 CFH-4000 IN-LINE RESIN HEATER MANUAL INTRODUCTION The MVP Clean Flow Heater (CFH) is designed to allow higher flow rates, give better control over temperature change and boasts a new easy maintenance design. The CFH-4000 Heater is heated with a single 3000 watt cartridge type heating element, requiring 240 Volt, single phase electrical service at 15 amps. Material temperature is indicated on the thermometer on the outlet side of the heater.
CHAPTER 2 CFH-4000 IN-LINE RESIN HEATER MANUAL OPERATION To operate the CFH heater, just set the temperature control to mid-position or to the desired position if the setting is known. Heater is now ready. To preheat the CFH-4000-AI (system with air interlock) press the preheat button and hold until heater block feels warm to the touch. This insures resin is heated from start-up to stop. If this system sets idle for a long period of time it may need to be preheated again before use.
CHAPTER 3 CFH-4000 IN-LINE RESIN HEATER MANUAL MAINTENANCE (Refer to Parts Drawings) 1. Periodically, the heater should be flushed out by pumping solvent through, especially with gel coat or filled resin systems. 2. Inspect electrical cord for wear or damage and repair or replace as necessary. 3. Inspect hoses attached to the heater for wear of damage and replace periodically. 4. Check heater and hoses for leaks and replace periodically.
CHAPTER 4 CFH-4000 IN-LINE RESIN HEATER MANUAL TROUBLESHOOTING INSTRUCTIONS Two basic problems may occur with the MVP Resin Heater: Loss of electrical current or heat Material flow blockage or leakage. Loss of Electrical Current or Heat: 1. Indicator Light: If indicator light is not sequencing during operation, try preheat button to see if light comes on. If not, inspect bulb and replace if defective. Also, check diodes for continuity.
6. Heating Element: If all components to this point check out, heating element is faulty. Heater element should be checked for leakage to ground and continuity through element. CFH-4000-AI Air Interlock units: 7. Air Switch: Disconnect wires and check microswitch to ensure continuity through normally closed contacts when air supply is off. If there is no continuity, inspect air actuator to insure it is disengaging. If air actuator disengages properly, switch is faulty and must be replaced.
