When the FAULT light is off, both output contacts are closed. For more information on these output contacts, refer to Connecting Output Contacts in the Installation section. B: You should base your over-temperature setpoints on your adhesive application requirements. Refer to System Programming Procedures in the Installation section to program over-temperature setpoints. 1. Press the CLEAR FAULTS key. 2. If the fault disappears and the unit appears to be working again, you may have an intermittent problem. Repetitive faults in the same zone indicate a problem with the circuitry in that zone or an intermittent RTD failure. Electrical noise from DC-drive motors may cause the triacs that control heater power on the power board to close independent of the control system. Take the following steps to troubleshoot intermittent over-temperature faults: a. Check your operating temperature setpoints to make sure they haven t been changed. Refer to Records of System Settings in the Installation section.
B 2-17 b. To verify that something other than the control system is affecting a heated zone, turn on the Display Heater Proportioning feature (Feature No. 21) for the affected zone. When the display blinks on and off, it means the control system is proportioning heat control to the heater. During proportioning, the temperature displayed for the zone should stay fairly constant, within +/ 1 F. If the temperature continues to rise during proportioning, then something other than the control system is closing the triacs on the power board and causing the heaters to heat. If electrical noise from DC drives is causing the overheating problem, then you may be experiencing problems with other equipment in your facility. Take the following steps to solve electrical noise problems: Install the proper line reactor. Consult with the DC drive manufacturer for the appropriate line reactor size. Electrically ground the hot melt unit to the parent machine using as short a length of twisted cable as possible. If the triacs continue to close after the hot melt unit is grounded to the parent machine, install a line filter on each input power line to the hot melt unit. Connect the filter line-to-line. Refer to Parts for the line filter part number. For a three-phase system, order three filters. c. If the faulted zone is a hose or gun, replace the hose or gun with a hose or gun that is known to be good. If the fault disappears, replace the defective hose or gun. If the fault remains, continue to the next step. 3. If the fault remains after you press the CLEAR FAULTS key and after you have taken the actions in step 2, check the heater or heater circuit of the faulted zone. Refer to Checking a Heater or Heater Circuit in Troubleshooting Procedures. 4. If the fault remains after you have taken all the actions in this procedure, replace the control assembly. Refer to Replacing the Assembly in Repair Procedures.

If the faulted zone is a hose or gun, measure the resistance at the hose or gun electrical plug. Refer to your hose or gun manual for a diagram of the electrical plug and for procedures for replacing the gun heater. If a hose heater is defective, replace the hose. If the faulted zone is the tank, measure the resistance at the tank heater connectors. If you measure infinite or zero (0) resistance at the tank heater connectors, you must install a new tank. Refer to the Tank section. 5. Replace the control board or the control assembly. Refer to Replacing a Assembly Board or Replacing the Assembly in Repair Procedures.
B 2-25 Checking a Thermostat Use this procedure to check a thermostat. WARNING: System or material pressurized. Relieve pressure. Failure to observe this warning may result in serious burns. 1. Relieve system pressure. Refer to Relieving System Pressure in the Maintenance section. WARNING: Risk of equipment damage, personal injury, or death. Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the unit, including input/output (I/O) lines. 2. Place the unit s POWER switch in the off position, disconnect and lock out electrical power to the unit at the branch circuit disconnect switch, and disconnect and lock out electrical power supplied through any I/O wiring. 3. Open the electrical enclosure. Refer to Opening and Closing the Electrical Enclosure. 4. Remove the thermostat. Refer to RTD or Thermostat Removal in Repair Procedures. 5. Connect an ohmmeter set on the lowest resistance scale across the thermostat; then heat the thermostat with a flameless electric heat gun. Short circuit before thermostat reaches temperature and open circuit when thermostat reaches temperature: normal indication. Return to the appropriate troubleshooting table. Short circuit or low resistance at high temperature: defective thermostat. Replace the thermostat. Refer to Replacing an RTD or a Thermostat in Repair Procedures.
B 2-26 Checking an RTD or RTD Circuit Follow this procedure to check an RTD or RTD circuit. NOTE: If the faulted zone is a hose or a gun, you can remove the hose or gun and replace it with a hose or gun that is known to be good. If the fault disappears, then the problem is in the hose or gun, not inside the unit. As an alternative to using this procedure, you can refer to your hose or gun manual for instructions on checking the hose or gun RTD and replacing the gun RTD. WARNING: Risk of equipment damage, personal injury, or death. Disconnect and lock out electrical power to the unit, including input/output (I/O) lines. 1. Place the unit s POWER switch in the off position, disconnect and lock out electrical power to the unit at the branch circuit disconnect switch, and disconnect and lock out electrical power supplied through any I/O wiring. 2. Open the electrical enclosure. Refer to Opening and Closing the Electrical Enclosure. 3. Check the RTD by measuring its resistance. Refer to Table B 2-7. If the RTD is defective, replace the RTD. If a hose RTD is defective, you must replace the hose. To replace a gun RTD, refer to your gun manual. To replace a tank RTD, refer to Replacing an RTD or a Thermostat in Repair Procedures. NOTE: Flex the hose when you are checking a hose RTD. Some hose RTDs exhibit problems intermittently. If the RTD is good, go to the next step.
B 2-27 Table B 2-7 Measuring RTD Resistance Quick Methods In-Depth Methods Using a surface-temperature sensing device, such as a thermocouple, measure the temperature of the RTD at or near the end of the RTD that is accessible. Then use an ohmmeter to measure its resistance (See Note A). See Figure B 2-6 and compare the resistance reading to the RTD s normal resistance at the known temperature. Roughly estimate the temperature of the RTD to the nearest 50 C (100 F). Use an ohmmeter to measure its resistance (See Note A). See Figure B 2-6 and compare the resistance reading to the RTD s normal resistance at the estimated temperature. Because RTDs usually fail open or closed, any resistance reading from approximately 100 400 ohms strongly indicates that the RTD is good. Let the system cool down to room temperature. When the RTD has had time to reach room temperature, use an ohmmeter to measure its resistance (See Note A). See Figure B 2-6 and compare the resistance reading to the RTD s normal resistance at room temperature. Remove the RTD and heat it to a known temperature by using an oven or by placing it in boiling water (protect the wires and hold them above the water). Then use an ohmmeter to measure its resistance (See Note A). See Figure B 2-6 and compare the resistance reading to the RTD s normal resistance at the known temperature. NOTE A: If the faulted zone is a hose or gun, measure the RTD resistance at the hose or gun electrical plug. Refer to your hose or gun manual for a diagram of the electrical plug and for procedures for checking RTD resistance. Because the core elements of a hose are not accessible, you cannot use some of the methods described in this table to measure the temperature of a hose RTD. If the faulted zone is a tank, measure the resistance at pins 33 and 34 of the harness attached to connector XP2 on the control board.
B 2-28 Checking an RTD or RTD Circuit (contd.) 4. Check the continuity of the RTD circuit by measuring the RTD resistance at other points in the circuit. Refer to Table B 2-8 for the plug or harness pins for each check. For a gun RTD, you can check continuity at two points: first at the hose electrical plug and then at the harness connected to XP2 on the control board. For a hose RTD, you can check continuity at the hose electrical plug or at the harness connected to XP2 on the control board. See Figure B 2-4 for the location of XP2 on the control board. For the tank RTD, there are no further checks you can make: go to the next step.

If you find a continuity problem in the gun RTD circuit, replace the hose or replace the gun RTD harness inside the unit as appropriate. If you find a continuity problem in the hose RTD circuit, replace the hose RTD harness inside the unit. If you do not find a continuity problem, go to the next step. 6. Replace the control board or the control assembly. Refer to Replacing a Assembly Board or Replacing the Assembly in Repair Procedures.
