Issued 12/06
Installation Practices
Install the equipment in accordance with the instructions provided in this
document and in the documentation provided with auxiliary devices.
Ensure that the equipment is rated for the environment in which it will be
used and that the processing characteristics of the material will not
create a hazardous environment. Refer to the Material Safety Data
Sheet (MSDS) for the material.
If the required installation configuration does not match the installation
instructions, contact your Nordson representative for assistance.
Position the equipment for safe operation. Observe the requirements for
clearance between the equipment and other objects.
Install lockable power disconnects to isolate the equipment and all
independently powered auxiliary devices from their power sources.
Properly ground all equipment. Contact your local building code
enforcement agency for specific requirements.
Ensure that fuses of the correct type and rating are installed in fused
equipment.
Contact the authority having jurisdiction to determine the requirement for
installation permits or inspections.
Operating Practices
Familiarize yourself with the location and operation of all safety devices
and indicators.
Confirm that the equipment, including all safety devices (guards,
interlocks, etc.), is in good working order and that the required
environmental conditions exist.
Use the personal protective equipment (PPE) specified for each task.
Refer to Equipment Safety Information or the material manufacturer’s
instructions and MSDS for PPE requirements.
Do not use equipment that is malfunctioning or shows signs of a
potential malfunction.

Maintenance and Repair Practices
Perform scheduled maintenance activities at the intervals described in
this document.
Relieve system hydraulic and pneumatic pressure before servicing the
equipment.
De-energize the equipment and all auxiliary devices before servicing the
equipment.
Use only new factory-authorized refurbished or replacement parts.
Read and comply with the manufacturer’s instructions and the MSDS
supplied with equipment cleaning compounds.
NOTE: MSDSs for cleaning compounds that are sold by Nordson are
available at www.nordson.com or by calling your Nordson
representative.
Confirm the correct operation of all safety devices before placing the
equipment back into operation.
Dispose of waste cleaning compounds and residual process materials
according to governing regulations. Refer to the applicable MSDS or
contact the authority having jurisdiction for information.
Keep equipment safety warning labels clean. Replace worn or damaged
labels.
Equipment Safety Information
This equipment safety information is applicable to the following types of
Nordson equipment:
hot melt and cold adhesive application equipment and all related
accessories
pattern controllers, timers, detection and verification systems, and all
other optional process control devices
Equipment Shutdown
To safely complete many of the procedures described in this document, the
equipment must first be shut down. The level of shut down required varies
by the type of equipment in use and the procedure being completed.
If required, shut down instructions are specified at the start of the
procedure. The levels of shut down are:
Relieving System Hydraulic Pressure
Completely relieve system hydraulic pressure before breaking any hydraulic
connection or seal. Refer to the melter-specific product manual for
instructions on relieving system hydraulic pressure.

De-energizing the System
Isolate the system (melter, hoses, guns, and optional devices) from all
power sources before accessing any unprotected high-voltage wiring or
connection point.
1. Turn off the equipment and all auxiliary devices connected to the
equipment (system).
2. To prevent the equipment from being accidentally energized, lock and
tag the disconnect switch(es) or circuit breaker(s) that provide input
electrical power to the equipment and optional devices.
NOTE: Government regulations and industry standards dictate specific
requirements for the isolation of hazardous energy sources. Refer to the
appropriate regulation or standard.
Disabling the Guns
All electrical or mechanical devices that provide an activation signal to the
guns, gun solenoid valve(s), or the melter pump must be disabled before
work can be performed on or around a gun that is connected to a
pressurized system.
1. Turn off or disconnect the gun triggering device (pattern controller, timer,
PLC, etc.).
2. Disconnect the input signal wiring to the gun solenoid valve(s).
3. Reduce the air pressure to the gun solenoid valve(s) to zero; then
relieve the residual air pressure between the regulator and the gun.
