Start-Up Checklist (continued)
With the compressed air system operating, energize the timer board to
begin pulsing. Check to see that all solenoids are firing by placing a finger
over the exhaust port of one of the solenoid valves. When the solenoid
valve being checked is energized by an electrical pulse from the timer
board the finger at the exhaust port should feel a short blast of air.
Quickly move to the next solenoid valve in the firing order noting any
valves that do not fire or are stuck open causing a continuous airflow out
of the exhaust port of the valve. At this time note the quality of the
compressed air. It should be clean, dry, and oil free.
Allow the compressed air system to operate as long as possible to clear
the system of dirt, rust, scale, welding slag and metal chips that can
cause the diaphragm valves to stick.
The pressure at the compressed air manifold must recover to 90-100 psig
before each pulse. Make sure that there is adequate compressed air
delivery for full pressure recovery when all other systems connected to
the same air supply are operating at full capacity.
