Gravimetric Batch Blenders w/Mitsubishi Control Chapter 3: Installation 36
Final Connections
1. Connect the blender to the appropriate power source.
2. Connect the compressed air piping, ensuring that a 5-micron air filter is installed,
along with the proper water trap, and lubrication unit, if required. Verify that 60 psi
(4.14 bar) of clean, dry compressed air is supplied to the blender.
Note: Again, make sure that proper air supply connections are made to the blender,
as dirty, contaminated, wet air can damage blender components and can
quickly cause poor performance and accuracy!
Note: Make sure that the blender is supplied with clean, dry,
60 psi (4.14 bar) compressed air.
3. After powering up the blender the following screen will be shown:
Note: It may take 45-50 seconds for the screen to appear.
This screen displays the software version of both the PLC and the PanelView. The Controller
will stay on this screen for about 10 seconds or you can touch the picture of the blender to
quickly skip to the Recipe Screen (Next Screen in sequence). The software versions are also
available on the Panel View Configuration Screen.
4. The screen shown below allows the operator to control the blender. The blender can
be started or stopped, the recipe values can be changed, and the actual vs. target data
can be viewed. Other data shown on this screen consists of the mixer status, recipe
status, and feeder type data. The Recipe Screen should startup in the Quickset recipe
mode. If so, enter a valid recipe.
