Final Connections
Connect the blender to the appropriate power source.
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.
• THE WEIGH HOPPER ASSEMBLY MUST HANG FREELY AND BE
FREE FROM FRICTION, WITH NO MECHANICAL OBSTRUCTIONS
OTHER THAN THE LOAD CELL ITSELF.
• 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!
• Make sure that the blender is supplied with clean, dry,
60 psi (4.14 bar) compressed air.
