Sterlco SGBD Series Batch Gravimetric Blenders - Manual (Page 69)

BLN1-600 Chapter 4: Operation 69 of 110
4-3 Shut-down
The Slide Gate Gravimetric Blender can be stopped in one of two ways:
1. To immediately stop the blender, the operator can touch “Abort Current Batch.” This
will cause the blender to stop making the current batch immediately. Obviously, if
the blender is stopped in this method then the current batch will not be completed
properly.
2. If the operator desires to complete the current batch of material, then he can wait
until the Inventory Shutdown value is reached. The blender will finish the current
batch of material to the specifications set in the Setup portion of this manual. It will
then stop and display to the operator that the inventory value has been reached.
Additionally, it will flash an alarm and wait for operator attention. An example of
this screen is shown below:
