Safety
Certain warning symbols are affixed to the machine and correspond to notations in this
manual. Before operating the system, identify these warning labels and read the notices
described below. Not all labels may be used on any specific system.
Always wear approved safety glasses when you operate or work near the
workcell.
Before you operate the system, read and understand the manuals provided
with the unit.
Never put hands or tools in areas with this symbol when the machine is in
operation. A dangerous condition may exist.
Read and understand the manuals provided with the unit before any repairs
or maintenance is done. Only a qualified individual should do service.
Use caution when there are pressurized vessels. Find and repair any leaks
immediately. Always wea
r appropriate safety equipment when you work
with pressurized vessels or vessels that contain chemicals
Shear hazard from moving parts. Avoid contact.
Do not remove protective guarding.
In situations where inattention could cause either personal injury or damage
to equipment, a warning notice is used.

Do not smoke near the PVA UV cure machine. Always have a fire
extinguisher available for emergency use.
Before performing any repairs or maintenance to the system, turn off power
and lock out the power disconnect switch.
Warning notices are used to emphasize that hazardous voltages, current,
temperatures, or other conditions that could cause personal injury exist in
this equipment or may be associated with its use. Only qualified personnel
should enter areas designated with this symbol.
Laser light source present. Do not stare directly into the beam. Do not use in
the presence of highly reflective surfaces
Pinch hazard from moving parts. Avoid contact.
Hot surface. Avoid contact.
Warning, Ultraviolet (UV) light hazard. Do not look directly at the UV light
source.

Theory of Operation
The DeltaTherm IR Cure Module is an infra-red (IR) curing machine that can handle multiple
boards. Upstream and downstream ends are SMEMA (Surface Mount Equipment
Manufacturers Association) rated for use in a production line. The system is designed to
operate with PVA workcells.
The operator controls the machine with the operator interface; this includes setup, manual
operation, and automatic operation. Machine status and error messages are shown on the
screen and the light tower. The operator(s) must, by reading the manual or by training,
understand the operation of this machine. Any uses other than those listed above could
result in a dangerous condition and cannot be protected against by the safety features
installed on the system.

Personal Protective Equipment
Operators must use eye protection. Always wear gloves when handling materials and
solvents. Refer to MSDS sheets on the material being dispensed for other precautions.
Waste Disposal
Dispose of all used parts and materials in accordance with local laws and regulations.
Hazards Due to Contact
The DeltaTherm IR Cure Module is made to minimize injury from contact with any
accessible portion of the machine. In some modes, it is possible to access the work area
while the machine operates. Only a qualified person should do this. All hot surfaces have a
warning label.

Operating, Handling, Transportation, and
Storage
The system should have minimal vibration when handled and transported. Use an air-ride
truck for roadway transport. The machine is made to operate in an industrial environment
but abuse will reduce its performance.
Dust and Debris
All enclosures and connector covers should be closed tightly. Put a cover over the system
if dust or other airborne debris is present in the storage area.
Temperature and Humidity
Storage and operation should be done in an area at 40-105°F (4– 41°C) and low humidity.
Do not let the machine have condensation on it.
Location
The machine should be installed and stored on a level surface away from standing water,
possible overspray, and leaks.

SMEMA
For manufacturing lines (multiple machines utilizing conveyor systems), it is necessary for
the individual modules to communicate reliably. Make sure the SMEMA and Intermodule
cables are correctly connected.
Note: On the diagrams, the J# refers to the label on the machine, not the label on the
cable.
The Surface Mount Equipment Manufacturers Association (SMEMA) Electrical Equipment
Interface Standard is used to make sure the sequence of boards is correct. If these
connections are not in place, boards cannot move from one machine to another.
SMEMA cables have male 14-pin amp-type CPC connectors. The cables are straight-
through so orientation does not matter. On each module, the wire to the J1 plug must
connect to the J2 plug on the machine upstream. Similarly, the J2 plug on each machine
must connect to the J1 plug on the machine downstream, as shown below.
