General Operation Safety Guidelines
Creating A Safe Working Environment
and
As with any equipment containing moving and hazardous parts there are certain safe working procedures and practises that must be adhered to achieve a safe working environment. Inovex dispense systems are approved for the application for which they were designed according to the specification stated at the time of order.
General Operation
The procedure detailed below should be followed systematically to place the system into operation for the first time or after it has been shut down. Two services are required to operate the system, the first being air which serves the pneumatic switches, dispensing valves, pumps and pneumatic logic control and secondly an electrical supply is required to drive the control system and the computer.
1. 2. 3.
4. 5.
Switch on the dispense unit control via the isolator. Put the power on to the computer and allow the start-up software to run. Ensure all Emergency Stops are unlocked and the system is switched to automatic dispense mode on the key switch. Ensure the power lamp is on, if not press the reset button on the dispense console desk. Ensure that power is on to the scale. Ensure that there is a minimum air pressure of 80 psi (5.4 bar) indicated on the pressure gauge in the dispense console.
The system is now ready to run.

MANUAL
RESPONSE OF THE DISPENSING VALVES. RENDER THESE VALVES INOPERATIVE.
NOTE: AIR PRESSURE OF LESS THAN 80 PSI (5.4 BAR) WILL RESULT IN A SLUGGISH AIR PRESSURE OF LESS THAN 60 PSI MAY
Emergency Stop Options
In the unlikely event of an emergency and it is necessary to perform an emergency stop, there are a number of options that can be chosen.
1.
Depress the Emergency Stop button on the dispensing stand. 2. Switch off the main isolator. 3. Isolate the Air supply
Reset after Emergency Stop
In the event of any of the emergency stops having been operated, to render the system operative again:
1. 2.
Ensure that the stops are returned to the 'out' position. Press the system reset button on the dispense enclosure.
There are indicator lamps to show the system status. If the lamps are not lit, press the Reset button on the control panel. You should now be able to continue dispensing.
PLEASE NOTE THAT IF THE EMERGENCY OCCURRED DURING A DISPENSE AND
COMPUTER WAS NOT SHUT DOWN DURING THE EMERGENCY, THE COMPUTER MAY CONTINUE DISPENSING WHEN RELEASING THE
EMERGENCY STOP.

MANUAL
General Safety
The following methods, procedures and practises must be adopted when operating the dispense system -
· Do not operate the dispenser without all the panels and · ·
relevant safety items and guards in place, as there are moving parts under automatic control. Always wear the appropriate safety equipment when operating the system including safety spectacles. Before attempting to carry out any maintenance, repairs or modifications to the dispenser or its ancillary equipment: · Switch off the control system, isolate the electrical supply, isolate the air supply and vent any residual pressure. · Shut off and drain any ink, which may cause a health or safety risk from the supply and delivery lines and ensure you have permission to work on the system. Observe routine maintenance procedures as laid down in this manual. Ensure that the area around the dispenser and ancillary equipment is clear of personnel and or obstruction before operating the system. Check for correct container alignment before initiating a dispense procedure. Observe handling instructions and specific safety guidelines for the relevant inks being dispensed.
· · · ·
Hazardous Area Operation
2
If your system is designed to operate in a hazardous area the dispenser may be handling highly combustible inks and as such all the appropriate Zone 1 safety procedures and working practises over and above those listed below MUST be implemented.
Static Electricity
Static electricity is a very common phenomenon caused whenever two dissimilar inks separate. This separation causes an imbalance of electrons which in turn creates a voltage which, when discharged, causes a current to flow.
7
INOVEX
USER
MANUAL
If you experience static shocks from any of your equipment, first check that all the equipment is earthed correctly. If everything checks out OK, you can eliminate the risk by using some of the equipment mentioned in the paragraph below. In general, to avoid getting a static shock when handling pipes, working with computer equipment and dispense equipment etc. there are several products available on the market, which help eliminate the risk. These include wristbands, ground heels, ionisers and grounding kits. It is especially important to be aware of the dangers of static when working in a hazardous Zone 1 area and to ensure all barrels are connected to bonding clamps. Moreover, the dispense vessels should be made of conducting material and grounded using the earth clamp.
Why care about safety?
Should you hesitate whether or not to adhere to safety regulations, think about the possible hazards you may be exposed to when not observing the safety guidelines:
· · EXPLOSION TRAPPING
SYSTEM BY MOVING PARTS SUCH AS SCALE CARRIAGE AND HEADWASH
·
SPRAYING WITH FLUID WHEN DISCONNECTING A VALVE, PUMP, FILTER
HOSE

The Utilities Menu
In order to effectively use the program you must first build a database containing all your records. To do this you initially use the input menus in the Utilities Menu, Sub group. The database will allow you to keep an up to date list of all your customers, ink categories, press return locations, passwords and any other setup information relevant to the dispense operation. The common name for an area where you input information is a Form. Information entered on these Forms is stored in Tables. Tables allow the database to build up relationships between information, which may be contained in several different tables through preprogrammed links. This is known as a relational database. Most of the records you enter follow the same pattern, making use of the button bar described earlier and allowing the use of codes, descriptions etc. The following examples will guide you through entering your first records and describe briefly the different options available on the screens as you progress through the program. The best way to learn the program is to experiment with all the different options and routines. Once you have carried out a task several times you will see that most of the other tasks you perform will follow the same pattern.
