Procedure and Usage Instructions:

Cleaning of Screw and Barrel – Injection Molding:

  • Move the injection unit to the back position while keeping the barrel full of resin.
  • Remove all possible contamination sources in the hopper, mixers, and filters.
  • Add Ultra Purge™ 2951T (1 barrel capacity).
  • Inject the compound until Ultra Purge™ is ejected through the nozzle.
  • For machines larger than 500 tons, reduce the shot size to 20% of the maximum allowed shot size.
  • For optimal results, let Ultra Purge™ soak for 3 minutes.
  • Directly add the next production resin/color after Ultra Purge™ and make injections until the compound is displaced.
  • Make 4-5 additional injections with the next resin to ensure complete removal of Ultra Purge™.
  • If contamination persists, repeat the steps.


Cleaning for Shut-down and Start-up – Injection Molding:


SHUT DOWN

  • Move the injection unit to the back position while keeping the barrel full of resin.
  • Add half barrel capacity of Ultra Purge 2951T.
  • Reduce the shot size and inject until the barrel is completely empty. Do not add resin after using Ultra Purge.
  • Turn off the machine completely.

START-UP

  • Turn on the machine to production settings.
  • Load half barrel capacity of Ultra Purge followed by the production resin.
  • If contamination persists, follow the standard cleaning procedure.


Cleaning of Screw and Barrel – Extruder:

  • Keep the extruder barrel full of resin when adding Ultra Purge 2951T.
  • Remove the finest layer of the screen pack, ensuring pressure or torque force remains within safety limits.
  • Add Ultra Purge 2951T (approximately 1.5 times the extruder barrel capacity).
  • Extrude at low speed until Ultra Purge is ejected from the machine.
  • Allow Ultra Purge to soak in the barrel for 5 minutes (10 minutes for difficult applications).
  • Add the next production resin directly after Ultra Purge, ensuring the barrel is emptied if there is a change in working temperatures.
  • Extrude the next resin at high speed to completely displace Ultra Purge.
  • If possible, replace the screen pack during this phase.
  • If contamination persists, repeat the steps.


Cleaning for Shut-down and Start-up – Extruder:


SHUT DOWN

  • Keep the extruder barrel full of resin when adding Ultra Purge 2951T.
  • Remove the finest layer of the screen pack, ensuring pressure or torque force remains within safety limits.
  • Add Ultra Purge 2951T (1 barrel capacity).
  • Purge out until the barrel is completely empty. Do not add resin after using Ultra Purge™.
  • Turn off the machine completely.


START-UP

  • Turn on the machine to production settings.
  • Load half barrel capacity of Ultra Purge followed by the production resin.
  • If possible, replace the screen pack during this phase.
  • If contamination persists, follow the standard cleaning procedure.
