Functioning
Melting Process and Adhesive FeedingThe opened foil bag is placed in the tank. There is a heated grid (1, low meltsection) in the tank. The adhesive is melted there and fills a reservoir (3,high melt section, approx. 3 liters). The adhesive flows from the reservoir tothe gear pump (12). The gear pump feeds the adhesive to the hoseconnection (7).
A pneumatically operated punch in the tank applies sufficient pressure tothe foil bag on the grid. The pressure is automatically switched on and offaccording to whether adhesive is dispensed or not.
The low melt and high melt sections are heated separately. This way only asmall amount (approx. 3 liters) of adhesive is heated to processingtemperature. This adhesive supply ensures continuous adhesivedispensing, even when the foil bag is changed.

Temperature ControlAlso refer to manual Control System. The temperature is measured bysensors and is electronically controlled by the control system.
Undertemperature InterlockThe undertemperature interlock prevents the unit or system from beingstarted up before the adhesive has exceeded the temperature setpointminus undertemperature value. However, every time initial heating occurs,the interlock is not released until the actual temperature is 3 °C (5.4 °F)below the temperature setpoint.
The undertemperature interlock locks the motors, solenoid valves and, insome cases, other components of the hot melt application system. Refer tothe wiring diagram to determine which components are locked.
Overtemperature Indication / ShutdownThe independently operating overtemperature shutdown mechanismsprotect the unit and adhesive from overheating. For overtemperatureshutdown, the heating and motor are switched off. The red indication lampCollective fault lights up.
� Overtemperature indication through temperature controller: When thetemperature setpoint plus overtemperature value has been reached, therelay output Collective fault is switched and the red indication lampCollective fault lights. The unit remains ready for operation.
� Overtemperature shutdown by temperature controller: Theovertemperature shutdown value is set automatically 30 °C (54 °F)higher than the highest temperature setpoint value.
� Overtemperature shutdown by thermostat(s): Serves as an emergencyswitch OFF in case the overtemperature shutdown of the temperaturecontroller does not function properly. Refer to section Technical Data forshutdown value.
WARNING: When the overtemperature shutdown is triggered, there iseither a fault in settings or unit malfunction. Switch off the unit and have thefault remedied by qualified personnel.

Tank Lid and Pneumatic Cylinder with PunchThe tank lid is fastened with a hinge, allowing it to be swiveled out with thepneumatic cylinder.
Reed contacts (1) on the pneumatic cylinder detect the position of thepneumatically operated punch and thus the level in the foil bag. The signalsfrom the Reed contacts are processed by a PLC.
The lid can not be opened until the punch has triggered the upper Reedcontact.
The lower Reed contact triggers the empty indication; the height isfactory-set to complete emptying of common foil bags, but it can bemodified. The middle Reed contact serves to trigger the Almost emptyindication.
When the punch has reached its lowest position (foil bag empty), it isautomatically moved up. The foil bag can then be changed.
Air Conditioning Unit with Pressure Controller
The pressure controller (1) is used to set pneumatic pressure to be appliedto the pneumatic cylinder. The setting must be modified according to theprocessed material and the output quantity (2 to 6 bar / 29 to 87 psi).
Pressure Switch
A pressure switch (2) switches off the main contactor when the inletpressure falls below 2 bar.
Hinged Tank (Only MC 21)The tank is hinged and can be folded back to clean the high melt sectionand the grid.

Motor and Gear PumpThe electronically controlled motor drives the gear pump. This speed isindicated on the control system CS 20. Refer to manual Control System forinstructions on setting speed.
NOTE: With the special model for the bookbinding industry, the speed isnot regulated to a preset value; the pressure at the material outlet isregulated. This way the required material pressure is available as soon as aconnected application head is triggered (opened). Refer to manual ControlSystem for instructions on setting pressure.
CAUTION: Nordson gear pumps may not be operated without hot meltmaterial. Before switching on the motor, ensure that the tank is filled.
CAUTION: To prevent excessive wear, the motor/pump speed should notcontinuously fall below 5 min-1 (rpm) or continuously exceed 80 min-1 (rpm).
Bypass Plate with Safety ValveThe mechanical safety valve limits the adhesive pressure generated by thegear pump and keeps it constant. When the set pressure is exceeded, thesafety valve opens, allowing the adhesive to circulate within the bypassplate.
The pneumatic safety valve (1, option) serves to adjust the adhesivepressure by means of control air. The pneumatic control pressure ist setmanually e.g. at a separate control unit (2, accessory).
Protective PanelsWARNING: Do not operate without protective panels.
The protective panels can be detached for installation, maintenance andrepair.

Exhaust HoodThe fumes created when polyurethane hot melt adhesives (PUR) areprocessed should be suctioned off directly at the tank. An exhaust hood (1)is integrated for this purpose.
The exhaust hood must be connected to the customer’s exhaust device(Also refer to Installation, Exhausting Adhesive Vapors).
Proportional Pressure Control ValveNOTE: The proportional valve is a standard component only with thespecial model Bookbinding.
The proportional valve (1) supplies a pneumatic outlet pressure based onthe speed of the book binding machine. This outlet pressure serves as thecontrol pressure for an application head (EP 48-V); it keeps the applicationweight steady.
The assembly contains a pressure controller (2) to adjust the inlet pressure.
Pressure SensorNOTE: The pressure sensor (1) is a standard component only with thespecial model Bookbinding. When the pressure sensor is added to otherMC 20 units, it simply enables the pressure to be monitored by an externalunit.
The pressure sensor directly at the material outlet enablespressure-controlled operation of the MC 20. The frequency converter, whichcontrols the motor speed, is parameterized a certain way for this purpose.
This pressure is set and indicated on the control system CS 20. Refer tomanual Control System.
Also refer to manual Pressure Control for Applicators MX/MC.
