1.4 Field of Application, (Intended Usage)
The Loctite®CureJetTM LED System is designed for use with light cure products that cure
when exposed to ultraviolet and/or visible light. The system can be operated manually,
operated with the integrated timer, or controlled with an external switch. The system is
designed for intermittent or constant duty cycle.
2. Description
2.1 Theory of Operation
1364033 Single CureJetTM Controller will operate all existing CureJetTM Light Sources and
all new CureJetTM Light Sources. LED Controller 976419 will only operate 976420 (405)
LED Light Sources, and 976418 (IndigoTM ) LED Light Sources.
The Loctite® CureJetTM LED System utilizes a focused LED light source (The CureJetTM) and
the LED Controller. The unit is powered by the AC line cord, 985470. When the unit is
switched on, the proper electrical power is supplied to the LED resulting in immediate full
power. Curing will take place when the light is directed at the liquid adhesive. The time
required to complete the curing process depends primarily on the offset distance from the end
of the light source to the surface of the adhesive and the type of adhesive being used.
The exposure time can be controlled in either the manual mode, the use of the integrated
control timer, or an external switch.
The unit has an internal mechanism that shuts it off if the preset internal temperature is reached
in the Controller or the CureJetTM during operation. Should this occur, the unit would not
operate until the unit has cooled below this thermal limit.
The Loctite®CureJetTM LED Light Source can also be actuated by a remote foot switch, P/N
97201.

4.1 Installation, refers to Figures 1 and 2
1. Place the LED Controller on a flat sturdy surface.
2. If the CureJetTM will be operated from a fixed position, it may be mounted in the following
manners:
A. Holes (D) on the sides of the CureJetTM are properly sized for M4 screws. If you
wish to mount the CureJetTM to the side of the LED Controller, kit is included.
B. Tapped inserts (E) on the bottom of the CureJetTM are for M4 screws. Do not thread
screws deeper than .25 inches (6.35mm).
3. Using either Loctite®Cables P/N 1370351 or 1370352, connect the CureJetTM to the LED
Controller (Figure 2 Item C to Figure 1 Item 11).
4. If it will be used, plug in Foot Switch to LED Controller (Figure 1 Item 10).
5. Plug in AC Line Cord to LED Controller (Figure 1 Item 7).
4.2 Operation
1. Turn on the On/Off Switch on the back of the LED Controller unit (Figure 1 “8”).
2. Fans on both the CureJetTM and LED Controller unit should be on. The Power indicator
light should be on.
3. If Timed Mode is desired, set Mode Switch (Figure 1 “1”) to Timed Mode and program the
control timer (Figure 1 “3”) to the desired exposure time.
4. Depress Start Button (Figure 1 “2”) or Foot Switch to activate light.

4.3 Cure Light On Indicator
The LED Controller monitors the power delivered to the CureJetTM light source to ensure
proper operation. Whenever the CureJetTM is emitting light, the LED Controller will indicate
that the system is operating properly by lighting this indicator blue.
4.4 Fault Indicator
Both the LED Controller and the CureJetTM come equipped with temperature monitoring chips
to ensure the system will not suffer damage from overheating. While the system is made for
continuous operation, improper installation (either in an environment too hot, or obstructing
the airflows) can cause either the LED Controller or the CureJetTM to overheat. Should this
happen, the system will no longer turn the curing light on, and the Fault Indicator will turn red.
The Fault indicator will also light if the operating parameters, are outside of normal operation.
4.5 Checking the Unit’s Output
To check the unit’s output, insert the LED tip directly into Loctite®UV-B&A LED Qualified
Radiometer P/N 1390323 (375 Units), Visible Light LED Dosimeter, P/N 1265282 (405 Units
& IndigoTM Units) and flush against the adapter plate. Irradiate the sensor for 5 seconds to
check the system output.
4.6 Using the Foot Switch
The Loctite®CureJetTM LED System can also be actuated using a Foot Switch, P/N 97201.
By depressing the Foot Switch, the light will turn on. If the LED Controller is set to Manual
Mode, the light will turn off when the foot switch is released. If the LED Controller is set to
Timed Mode, the light will turn off when the control timer reaches 0s.
4.7 Using an External Controller
The LED Controller can communicate with an external controller (such as a PLC) via the XS
1 port (Figure 1 “10”). This port offers 2-way communication for actuation of the CureJetTM
and relaying of pertinent information back to the PLC. There are 3 signals on the port: Start
(NO), Overheat (NC), and Cure Light On (NO). See Figure 3 for wiring schematic.
Notice:
The current draw for the start signal is 2.5 mA. The max current rating on the Overheat and
Cure Light On signal contacts is 200 mA.

5. Care and Maintenance
Notice:
It is recommended that the light output from the light source be monitored regularly using a
Loctite®Visible Light LED Dosimeter, P/N 1265282 and UV-B&A LED Qualified
Radiometer P/N 1390323.
Caution!
It is recommended that the end of the light source be positioned no closer than 0.25” inch from
the Loctite®product being cured to minimize adhesive contamination on the light source tip. If
adhesive should contaminate the light source tip, be sure to clean the light source tip to
maximize the unit’s effective output.
Notice:
Vapors from some products may gradually accumulate on the end of the light source, reducing
the light output. It should be inspected regularly and cleaned as necessary using isopropyl
alcohol and a soft, clean cloth.
