3 CAUTION

This manual should be read before using t he PD22.
Explanations to the pictograms:

Warning against touching/Warning against opening:

Warning against high voltage:

Machine Type:

PD22I / PD22P

When operating the PD22, make sure that the dispenser head is closed.
The mains switch is used for emergency stopping .
The PD22 should only be used for dosing and filling of liquid fluids.
The PD22 must be placed on a stable bed plate and in such a way, that it is not exposed to

great humidity, high temperatures or other abnormal operating - environm ents. I t is not to be
used in explosion hazardous environments.

It is prohibited to maintain or clean the PD22, when it is connected t o the power supply.
It is prohibited for unauthor ised per sonnel to open the cover of the PD22's electrical parts.
Always remember that the PD22 must be earthed by way of the switch.
Handle the filling needles with caution.
The pump must not run dry.

The pump needs a filling nozzle with cut off valve.

OPERATORS MANUAL

4 GENERAL INFORMATION

4.1 Unpacking and inspection

PD22I is a peristaltic filler in the Flexicon Multi Filling System ( FMFS). The PD22 can not do
fillings by itself, but m ust be connected to Flexicons control unit, the MC12, or to a PC with
RS485 multidrop communication.

Please check that all ordered items have been received and that no items were damaged
during transport. In case of any defects or omissions, please contact Flexicon A/S or your
supplier immediately.

When ordering spare parts or accessories for the PD22, please state the serial number
stamped. The serial number is stamped on the label on the bottom of the PD22.

Please check that the connected mains plug is of the correct type with the correct earthed
switch. If this is not the case, the cor r ect type of plug must be mounted with the following
connections.

Yellow/green - earth
Blue - neutral
Brown - phase

ALWAYS REMEMBER that this machine must be earthed.

Machine Type:

PD22I / PD22P

4.2 The peristaltic principle

PD22I operates with a peristaltic dispenser head (tube pump), where the liquid only comes into
contact with the flexible tube, the tube connections and the filling needle. The tubes are usually
made of silicone, but other mat er ials can also be used.

The dispenser head is designed in such a way that sterilized tubes can be assembled in the
head without affecting the sterilit y. Flexicons tubes are produced of raw materials medically
approved by for instance the FDA. The tubes are delivered in sealed packages and are
provided with a batch number which makes it possible to trace the tubes all the way back to t he
raw material source.

For this reason the PD22 is specially suited for aseptic applicat ions and for preventing cross­contamination among different pr oducts.
The dispenser head is self-priming, and the dispenser head itself can stand to be run dry. It is
recommended not to let the dispenser head be r un dr y for a long period WITH CONNECTED
TUBES, since this will lead to particle release.

A peristaltic dispenser head is not suitable for viscous products.

4.3 Installation

4.3.1 PD22I Installation

PD22I must be placed on a stable bedplate, and all electrical connections are on its rear.

Machine Type:

PD22I / PD22P

Fig. 4.1

The cable with plug (1) is connected to an earthed switch.
The communication cable from MC12 (type 3) comes fitted with two 4-pin DIN plugs. One is

connected to the "net 1" socket ( 2) on t he PD22I, and the other plug is connected to the "net "
socket on MC12.
The terminator supplied with MC12 (4-pin blind DIN plug) is connected t o the "net 2" (3) socket
on PD22I.

Should the system be operating more than one PD22I, the "net 2" socket (3) is to be connected
to the "net 1" socket (2) on t he next PD22I by a communication cable (type 3). The terminator is
connected to the last PD22I on the line.

Address "1" is the factory setting of PD22I. In case you want to change this setting, please
consult section 1.4 in this manual.

PD22I is now ready to be switched on and to be programmed from the MC12.
