The above operations are repeated.
In a case where respective request signals from multiple
conveyance directions are simultaneously sent, the
material is conveyed in the order of No. 1 → No. 2 → No. n

1) Description of operation
Set the control panel power circuit breaker to ON.
↓
When the equipment starts conveyance by the start of operation, the discharge timer starts and after
the lapse of the preset time, the blower starts rotating in response to the request signal from the level
switch.
↓
Material is conveyed to the collection hopper for the period of time set by the conveyance timer.
↓
When the conveyance timer has run out, the blower stops. The collection hopper gate opens to
discharge material for the period of time set on the discharge timer.
↓
The above operations are repeated.
In a case where respective request signals from multiple conveyance directions are simultaneously
sent, the material is conveyed in the order of No. 1 → No. 2 → No. n → No. 2, alternatively.
When the receiver hopper has become full, the level switch installed on the receiver hopper senses the
conditions to stop conveyance.
When a request signal is sensed again, conveyance is started.

Chapter 7 Respective Parameter Setup
This chapter describes respective parameter setup carried out on the operation
panel.
Respective parameter setup is classified into user setting mode and engineering
setting mode.
NOTE
The parameters of the engineering setting mode have been set according to the
specification at shipment or at installation. In general, there is no need to change
the setting. When changing the setting, sufficiently understand the functions.

2. If the equipment is used in a state where packing of the cartridge filter
does not closely contact the filter case lid, the fine particles will mix into
the blower and cause blower trouble.
3. Replace with a new cartridge filter, in the case where a damaged
cartridge filter, a cartridge filter that is severely deteriorated, deformed or
is adhered with deposits cannot be removed. Replace when the blower
has trouble and cannot carry out material conveyance, the filter mesh is

3. Component adjustment procedure
This section describes the adjustment procedure of the full detecting
device attached to each collection hopper.
1) Jet Clone gate cam
Adjust the gate cam when full is not detected
regardless of whether the material is full.
Step Details of operation
1Loosen the set-screw with a hexagon rod spanner (2.5mm).
2Adjust the gate cam position so that the limit switch is ON with the gate
lowering from the horizon by 45-50°.
3After adjusting the cam, secure it by tightening the set-screw.
2) Balance weight for Jet clone
In a case where material is attached to the damper
due to static electricity, the state shown on the right
is brought about in rare cases. In such a case, adjust
the damper by loosening two locking screws for
the balance weight rearward by 5mm, respectively,
so as to be horizontally positioned. Retighten screws
for fixing after adjustment.

3) Suction hopper level switch
If the level switch does not accurately detect the full level for the material used, make a
sensitivity adjustment of the level switch. Adjust the sensitivity according to the specific
gravity of the material.
Step Details of operation
1 Set the control panel power circuit breaker to ON.
2 Remove the lid of the level switch.
3 Change the spring hook position.
Moving the spring toward the HIGH
position causes the sensitivity to increase,
and vice versa.
[Confirmation method]
(1) The spring of the level switch is setup
in the strongest direction.
(2) The material is fed slowly until the blade
of the level switch is filled up with the material.
(3) The adjustment confirmation performs under this condition from the
HIGH to LOW direction step by step. Then, the adjustment is completed
in the position where the blade rotation stops securely.

4) Suction hopper proximity switch (E2K)
If the proximity switch does not detect the full level, make a sensitivity adjustment of the
proximity switch by the following steps.
Step Details of operation
1 Remove the materials in the collection hopper.
Turn ON the power circuit breaker on the control panel.
2 Confirm that there is no gap of 1mm or more between the end of the proximity
switch and the hopper sight glass.
If there is a gap between them, loosen the fastening screws (2 pieces) of the
proximity switch fitting bracket and adjust the distance between the end of
the proximity switch and the hopper sight glass to approximately 1mm, and
then fix them.
3 Remove the rubber cap at the back of the proximity switch.
4 Perform the following ①, ② and ③ operations while adjusting the
sensitivity adjustment screw with the attached screwdriver.
① Adjust the sensitivity to a point where the sensor switches from ON to OFF
without material (Detection indication lamp turns OFF).
② Adjust the sensitivity to a point where the sensor switches from OFF to ON
with material (Detection indication lamp turns ON).
③ Set the sensitivity adjustment screw at the middle point between the ON to
OFF point ① without material and the OFF to ON point ② with material.
NOTE:
Perform the sensitivity setting with the actually used material. And, when there are
various materials, the ①, ② and ③ operations should be performed with a light
material of appearance specific gravity.
5 Install the rubber cap removed in step 3.
Perform the material conveyance and confirm that the detection indicator
turns on.

Check the control
board.
Check that
material is not
clogged in the
conveying hose.
Check that the
thermal relay in
the control panel
is set to the rated
value.
Action Precaution
・ Restart.
・ Turn “OFF” the power
circuit breaker once, and
turn it “ON” again.
・ Remove the material in the
conveying hose.
・ Adjust the secondary air
intake amount with the
secondary air adjustment
ring on the suction nozzle
at the end of the conveying
hose.
・ Set the thermal relay to the
rated value.
・ Press the reset button for
the thermal relay to reset
the alarm.
WARNING
・ Be sure to turn “OFF” the power
supply of your facility before
carrying out work.
・ If the “E0” is displayed even after
restarting, the control board has
failed.
・ Contact your local Matsui SDI
dealer.
・ When the suction part (metal
mesh) on the secondary air
adjustment ring is clogged, blow
clean dry air to remove the
deposits.
・ Be sure to turn “OFF” the power
supply of your facility, and then set
to the rated value of the thermal
relay and reset the alarm with the
reset button.
