3 Sa ety Guidelines
Confi urin and operatin this equipment requires precise knowledge and observance
of the instructions in this user manual. The equipment is desi ned only for its intended
application.
WARNING:
Servicin and repairs should be carried out only by authorised specialists.
Disconnect the power plu before startin any maintenance work.
Make sure that the equipment is connected to the correct power source.
The safety valve on the pressure tank opens automatically if the operatin
pressure is more than 7 bar.
The pressure can be activated only if the door is closed completely, since a
safety door contact is installed.
Dry-run protection, which switches off at 125 °C. The inte rated thermal fuse
works automatically. Please just wait until the unit cooled down.
Warning: Risk o scalding during the Hot Polymerisation.
Mount the thermal protection cover irmly be ore start-up (see p. 8)
Never open the lid while the unit is under pressure!
Always open the lid slowly!
Display in ormation have to be ollowed!
Please wear heat-resistant gloves.
For sa ety-related reasons (hot water, pressure), only the valves and hoses
meant or this purpose must be used or draining. I parts o di erent
design are used/ installed (sel -made), there is a risk o scalding!
5

For safety reasons, the pressure settin is limited to max. 3 bar (at 20 ° C).
Attention: When workin above 100°C, the pressure can increase by approx. 3
bar.
Note: Hence the unit should be filled only with water and should be pre-heated to
the desired workin temperature, before the actual work process.
To do this, select the preheating temperature and pressure accordingly.
4 Responsibility or Operation or Damage
The responsibility for operatin the unit lies exclusively with the owner or user if said unit is
incorrectly serviced, maintained or altered by persons not employed by an authorised
dealer or if the unit is used in a manner contrary to its specified purpose.
The unit has to be maintained and operated in accordance with this user manual.
Wassermann Dental-Maschinen GmbH is not responsible for dama e arisin from the
nonobservance of these instructions.
Warranty and responsibility provisions contained in the sales and supply conditions of
Wassermann Dental-Maschinen GmbH are not extended by these instructions.
5 Application
The Polyquick 160-T120 is a pressure polymerisation unit for hot and cold polymerisation
of plastics. This automat is desi ned for polymerisation of up to 3 flasks in flask holder or 2
cast resin flasks or rebasin frames or 6 orthodontic re ulatin s at one time. It can be set
to a maximum temperature of 120 °C and the polymerisation pressure can be adjusted to
a maximum of 4.5 bar.
In automatic mode, the polymerisation time can be preselected up to 99 hours. A touch
screen and the newly developed control panel allow the user to set the relevant
parameters quickly and easily usin self-explanatory symbols.
The Polyquick 160-T120 can also be used as a pressure compactor without heatin .
Only use the unit for this type of application.

6 Be ore Starting
6.1 Transport
Before transportin the unit, ensure that it has been unplu ed from the power socket.
Make sure that it is packed correctly in order to avoid accidental dama e.
Be sure to check for any transport dama e when unpackin the oods. Note
down any dama e if found.
6.2 Installation
Open the box, remove the packin materials, and carefully lift out the unit and accessories.
Check the included accessories.
The unit has to stand horizontally on a steady and even surface.
Install the unit in a place where it will not block the workin area and the
functionality (take the dimensions into account).
Do not install the unit outdoors or in places without proper ventilation.
Before start-up, be sure the unit reaches room temperature.
6.3 Storage
The unit location is very important when it comes to workplace safety, even if it is only to
be set up there for a short period. The room should be dry, well ventilated and vibration-
free. An even temperature and wooden supports also help. The unit should not be stored
or set up outdoors. If the unit is to be stored for an extended period, protect it from
moisture and dust.

7 Installation/ Start-up
ATTENTION: Be ore start-up
screw it to the swivel door!
•Thermal protection cover
•Spacer sleeve, 4 pieces
•Screw, 4 pieces
RISK OF SCALDING!
Be ore commissionin , please install the followin connections:
Install the pressure hose included in the scope of supply and provide for an
appropriate outlet.
It is advisable to install the unit irmly on the drainage system, since
very hot water can drain off from it. This also simplifies the process of
complete emptyin , e. . for cleanin .
After settin the workpiece, fill the unit with tap water, at most up to the en ravin in the
tank. Establish a pneumatic connection o minimum 2 bar. If the pneumatic pipe is lon ,
pay attention to the hose cross-section (internal diameter min. 6 mm). Every pneumatic
pipe must always have a maintenance unit. Ensure a constant pressure by usin the
pressure reducer.
Finally, insert the plu into the socket – make sure that the volta e specification of the unit
and the mains network is identical.
Never operate the unit without water, since the heatin unit immediately heats
up to 60°C or to the preheatin temperature when the power switch is activated.
If required, the heatin unit can be switched off via the display.
Preheatin temperatures above 100 °C are not stored. When restartin , the
preheatin temperature is 60 °C.

7.1 Setting the correct Pressure
Before fillin the tank, remove the accessories.
Afterwards set the correct polymerisation pressure.
Proceed as follows (ima e, see 7.2):
1. Activate main switch ( reen rocker switch).
2. Close lid.
3. Touch the Pressure key (ima e, see 7.2). (2.5 bar de ault).
4. If the pressure is very less (min. 2 bar), increase the pressure (max. 3 bar) usin
the black re ulator on the back side. Release the re ulator by pullin to do the
settin and press it in once a ain.
5. If the pressure is too hi h, switch off the pressure (ima e, see 7.2) and release
the pressure. Turn the pressure re ulator on the back side in the "minus" direction
several times; then, apply pressure to the tank. You can set the desired pressure by
turnin the re ulator in the "plus" direction.
Temperatures higher than 100 °C: Working is only possible under pressure.
I no pressure is set, the heating switches o at 100 °C.
Hence working without pressure is only possible at temperatures
below 100 °C.
For safety reasons, the pressure settin is limited to max. 3 bar (at 20 ° C).
Attention: When workin above 100°C, the pressure can increase by approx. 3 bar.
Note: Hence the unit should be filled only with water and should be pre-heated to
the desired workin temperature, before the actual work process.
To do this, select the preheating temperature and pressure accordingly.

7.2 Start-up
Define the unit's main parameters before switchin it on. These settin s are performed in
the Set-Up Menu . Familiarise yourself with the system's various options before
startin the polymerisation process. This particularly applies to functions and .

Preheating temperature
Defines the tar et temperature once the main switch has been activated. The pre-heat
temperature also applies to waitin times and rest periods. Default: 60°C
If the pro ramme temperature selected is hi her, the temperature reverts back
to this value when the pro ramme ends.
After definin the desired workin mode , it may make sense to adjust the pre-heat
temperature of the pro ramme temperature. This avoids lon heat-up or cool-down
phases.
Preheatin temperatures above 100 °C are not stored. When restartin , the
preheatin temperature is 60 °C.
