Machine Front Guard
1. Pump Front Guard. The linkage between the resin pump, catalyst pump and
the catalyst ratio arm is guarded to prevent any injury from moving machine
parts during the operation of the machine. The guard locking screw holds the
front guard in position. Removal of the guard will stop the machine.
Catalyst System
1. Catalyst Pump. Operated by the main resin pump. Catalyst ratio is indicated on
the ratio arms. On Megaject PF machines for use with phenolic resins (000-
067/68), two 316 stainless steel slave pumps are provided, with the catalyst ratio
determined by adding the two ratios.
2. Catalyst Overpressure Valve. If during the operation of the machine, the
catalyst system becomes blocked for any reason causing the catalyst to exceed a
pre-set pressure, the catalyst overpressure valve will activate and stop the
machine. Refer to Megaject Doctor for fault finding.
3. Catalyst Container. Catalyst store with feed and return pipes attached.
