WARNING: Allow only qualified personnel to perform the
following tasks. Follow the safety instructions in this document
and all other related documentation.
This section of the manual describes how to
Sinstall the unit, hoses, and guns
Sprogram system settings
Sprepare the unit for operation
If you have purchased optional features with your unit, such as a

section of this manual for installation instructions.
Besides using normal care, you need no special instructions to unpack
the unit or the equipment you purchased with it. All hoses and guns are
shipped in separate packages.
After unpacking the equipment, inspect it for any damage that may have
occurred during shipping. Look for dents and scratches and make sure
all fasteners are tight. Report any damage to your Nordson
representative.
This part of the installation section gives you the installation requirements
and recommendations that you need to know before installing your unit.
It includes
SLocation Requirements
SWiring Requirements
SHose/Gun Power Requirements
Other requirements and recommendations are provided in the installation
procedures when they are needed.

Carefully select the location for the unit and its associated guns and
hoses. Make sure that the location meets the following requirements:
SThere is enough room to open the tank lid, open the electrical
enclosure, remove the filter assembly, remove the pump enclosure,
and make electrical connections for the hoses. For unit dimensions
and recommended clearances, refer to Dimensions in the Description
section of this manual.
SAn operator can reach all controls.
SMaintenance personnel have room to service and repair the unit.
SInstallers can route the hoses without bending them. The minimum
bend radius for hoses is shown in Figure A 1-8.
SThe mounting surface can support the weight of the unit when the unit
is filled with adhesive. Refer to Specifications in the Description
section of this manual.
SThe mounting surface is level.
SThe mounting surface is raised at least 152 mm (6 in.) for draining
adhesive. See Figure A 1-1.
SThe drain valve projects over the edge of the mounting surface.

Follow these guidelines when installing wiring to the unit:
SAllow enough room to route your electrical service line to the unit.
You can use either of the two access holes in the base of the unit for
electrical service. One hole is for rear access and the other is for
bottom access.
SRoute any wires away from AC power lines, solenoid output lines,
and electrical equipment such as motors, contacts, and relays.
SMake connections with the minimum length of wire needed. A long
wire can act as an antenna for electrical noise.
The power requirements of your hoses and guns must be determined to
make sure that you do not overload the unit. If your Nordson
representative has not already checked to see that your unit can support
all of the hoses and guns you plan to install, you need to calculate your
hose/gun power requirements now. You also need to check your
calculations if you change your system configuration or add new hoses
and guns.
To determine your hose/gun power requirements, refer to Calculating
Hose/Gun Capacity at the end of this manual. If you need help with this
procedure, contact your Nordson representative.

This part of the installation section gives you the procedures for installing
the unit mechanically. It includes
SMounting the Unit
SInstalling the Tank Strainer
SConnecting the Air Supply
SInstalling Guns
SInstalling Hoses
On some units, you will not be required to complete all of these
procedures. For electrical installation procedures, refer to Electrical
Installation later in this section.
Use this procedure to mount your unit.
1. Remove the bolts that secure the unit to the shipping pallet. Save the
bolts for later use.
2. For installation within the European Community, find the packet of
adhesive-backed, local-language warning tags that was shipped with
the unit. Overlay the non-English language part of the tags already
on this unit with the tags from the packet in your own language.
Carefully follow the instructions in the packet for the correct
placement of the tags.
WARNING: Take care when lifting the unit. Using inadequate
means to lift the unit can cause equipment damage, personal
injury, or both.
3. Using a suitable lifting device that is capable of lifting the unit, position
the unit on the mounting surface. To determine the weight of your
unit, refer to Specifications in the Description section of this manual.
4. Check to see that the unit is level. Provide shims as needed.
5. Using the unit’s base as a guide, drill four holes in the mounting
surface for 8-mm (5/16-in.) mounting bolts.

This procedure describes how to install the tank strainer on Series 3000V
units that have tank strainers. The following units have tank strainers:
SSeries 3100V
SSeries 3400V
SSeries 3500V
SSeries 3700V
The model number of each unit is listed on the front panel of the unit. If
your unit does not have a strainer, go to the next procedure, Connecting
the Air Supply. If it has a strainer, complete this procedure.
1. Locate the tank strainer that was shipped with your unit. If you have
a Series 3500Vor Series 3700Vunit, you will find two strainers.
2. Series 3500V and 3700V units only: See Figure A 1-3. Determine
the correct strainer to use for your adhesive, the small strainer or the
large strainer. If the solid adhesive form you plan to use is small
enough to pass through the holes in the strainers (both strainers have
the same size holes), use the large strainer. If the solid adhesive is
too large to pass through the holes, use the small strainer.

3. Remove all wrapping from the strainer. Small pieces of wrapping can
cause blockage in the pump.
4. Open the tank lid.
5. Place the strainer on the fins in the bottom of the tank. Position the
cutout in the strainer around the pump.
6. Close the tank lid.

Follow this procedure to connect the air supply to units with piston
pumps. If your unit has a gear pump, which is motor-driven, you do not
need to connect air to your unit. To determine which kind of pump your
unit has, see Figure A 1-4.
If your unit has a gear pump, go to the next procedure, Installing Guns.If
your unit has a piston pump, complete this procedure.

1. See Figure A 1-5. Install the air pressure regulator, gauge, and filter
that were shipped with your unit.
4130014A
Fig. A 1-5 Installing the Air Pressure Regulator, Gauge, and Filter
2. Turn the regulator fully counterclockwise (off).
NOTE: Nordson recommends installing a shutoff valve with a
lock-out in the air supply line to isolate the unit from the air supply for
maintenance procedures.
3. Connect a supply of clean, dry air to the input air fitting or
shutoff valve.
NOTE: To achieve the rated adhesive output of the unit, you must
connect a plant air supply that is capable of providing the maximum
air pressure specified on the unit. The maximum air pressure is
either 483 kPa (70 psi) or 620 kPa (90 psi), depending upon the type
of pump your unit has. To find the maximum air pressure for your
unit, check the air pressure tag, which is located next to the inlet air
port, above the hose connectors.
