Nordson
Series 3400 Hot Glue Melter
The Nordson
Series 3400 Melter offers unprecendented
versatility and performance in mid-range hot melt
equipment. The
melter is equipped with the state-of-the-art MicroSet
Multiscan Control, which provides individual setpoints
for each heated component and microprocessor-based
diagnostics. The electrical cabinet is designed to
provide maximum access to electrical components for
ease of service and maintenance. 1
Hose is included. Guns/Applicator nozzles
are not included.
Introduction
The
Nordson Series 3400 Melter is
the main component of the hot melt system.
The melter liquefies the adhesive to its proper dispensing
temperature,
maintains it at the setpoint (operating) temperatures,
and pumps it
through hoses (1 Hose included) to dispensing guns
(not included). The tank, hoses, and guns are electrically
heated:
the
tank or grid by a
cast-in heater element, the hoses by a spirally wound
heating element,
and the guns by a cartridge heater. The temperatures
of the tank, hoses,
and guns are individually monitored and controlled
using
a
temperature-sensing device called a resistance temperature
detector (RTD).
Series 3400 melters can be used to melt and pump
almost any
thermoplastic adhesive or similar material that can
be liquified and
extruded at temperatures below 218C (425F). The melters
are not
intended for use with polyurethane-reactive (PUR)
adhesives because
these adhesives require unique systems designed to
prevent curing of the adhesive inside
the dispensing equipment. Series 3400 melters
should be used only as described in the Nordson 3400
manual.
- Programmed
sequential startup for reduced component
stress.
- System-ready
delay (with parent machine interlock) for
pump protection.

degree manifold face for easier hose routing.
- Overtemperature
protection.
- Contacts
for remote indication of fault and ready
conditions.
- Precise
resistance temperature detector (RTD) temperature
sensing.
- Teflon
coated tank for reduced char buildup.
- Compatibility
with existing Nordson RTD hoses and guns.
- Electrical
quick-disconnects for easy installation and
maintenance.
- Cast-in
heaters for increased service life.
