7 SmokePick Instructions The SmokePick Carton Verification System (SP-CVS) is included with every new Meyercord stamping machine. The system is an option and not a requirement for using your tax stamping equipment. If you do decide to try the system, the first 25 uses will be completely free! After the trial period, if you wish to continue using SmokePick for your order verification, please call the Meyercord sales office direct for pricing options. Activating the SmokePick Carton Verification System is easy. Simply plug a PC, printer, and monitor into the Meyercord machine, download orders to the PC in Excel format, print pick tickets, and proceed to select orders. Each pick ticket contains up to 30 cartons. Orders with more than 30 cartons have more than one pick ticket. When the selector completes their pick, the pick ticket is used as the identification tag at the stamp machine. At that point, simply match the identification number located on the ticket with the same number on the monitor, click the mouse once (or for touch screen monitors, touch the screen), and the picture on the screen will show the cartons that are in the picked case. If there is a pick error, the stamp machine operator or checker - will see the error in an instant. Errors can be corrected and selectors notified. Correct cases will be unloaded and the cartons stamped, relocated into the same box, and then shipped. The system is easy to operate, accurate, and inexpensive. To make ordering even simpler, after the first 15 uses a reminder with appropriate contact information will show on the screen. Using the SmokePick Carton Verification System after the trial period is as easy as a phone call to your Meyercord Tax Stamping Equipment sales team at (800) Contact our Sales Center at (800) for more information on the SmokePick Carton Verification System. 5

10 Meyercord Brand Tax Stamping Equipment and Your Facility The key to a smooth installation and start-up of any new equipment is to complete the necessary site work and installation planning prior to the arrival of the equipment. Some key items to consider are: Location: An installation site that provides sufficient service access (in addition to any OSHA requirements) is necessary to be able to adequately maintain any piece of equipment. United Silicone requires that a minimum Service Access Clearance of 18 inches be maintained around all equipment and 36 inches in front of control panel/enclosure and machine access doors. Any in-feed or discharge conveyors that are to be integrated with the Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment should be prepared and in place prior to the installation date. Conveyor height and excessive product back-pressure problems will cause installation delays and machine malfunctions. Contact Meyercord Service for additional assistance if required. United Silicone recommends that the customer DOES NOT uncrate the machine or any of its components until they are near the installation location. Sufficient space to transport the machine from the truck to its installation site and space to uncrate is also required. Electrical: A dedicated circuit that matches the voltage and amperage requirements of the equipment, along with a safety switch of the same capacity outside the equipment must be provided. Some voltages may be well outside of their stated levels. Please have your actual levels properly checked. If you require a buck-boost converter, Meyercord Service technicians can supply one at an additional cost. Consult your local electrical codes for proper cable size and ratings. An overhead drop above the machine s main electrical enclosure is the best method of supplying electrical power to your machine. This will minimize safety issues (i.e. tripping hazards or cord damage) while assuring maximum access to the machine. For machines that are not hard wired into the electrical panel, a female receptacle matching the male plug on the machine will need to be provided. See Appendix A: NEMA Receptacles Caution: Incorrect voltage will cause severe damage to the equipment. For the protection of the operator, the equipment must be electrically grounded. Pneumatic: For most Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment, a sufficient source of clean, dry compressed air is required for proper machine operation. It is recommended that a minimum 1/2 inch ID rigid copper line with shut-off valve outside of the machine be plumbed from the compressed air source. See Appendix B: Supplying Compressed Air for Your Meyercord Brand Tax Stamping Equipment for help on determining the pneumatic quality & quantity requirements for your facility.

13 Appendix B: Supplying Compressed Air for your Meyercord Brand Tax Stamping Equipment In addition to electricity, most of Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment requires a source of compressed air. The quality and quantity of the compressed air supply will affect the reliability of the equipment, the frequency and cost of service calls and downtime, as well as, the initial and on-going energy costs of the compressed air equipment you select. If you are not purchasing your air system directly from United Silicone, please review the following considerations when reviewing your air requirements 1) How Much Compressed Air Capacity Do I Need? The values listed in Air and Electrical Requirements above indicate the volume of compressed air at 90 psi, which is necessary to be available on a full-time and continual basis while each piece of equipment is operating. When calculating the total air requirement for all of your Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment, the first step is to add together these requirements for each piece of stamping equipment you intend to operate simultaneously. A worksheet has been provided below. Next add in any equipment which you expect you are likely to add within the next 3-5 years. Most air delivery systems have significant leaks and losses within them. Even a small leak at a fitting can result in a large loss of compressed air. For new, high quality piping systems which have a total line length less than 25 feet, of large diameter, solid copper lines with few bends and connections, we recommend that you add at least 20% margin on top of your computed total air requirements. If your lines are old, longer, threaded pipe and or contain multiple quick-disconnect or other type fittings, you should add at least 30-40% margin on top of your calculated total air requirements. For example, if you have a VL-10 stamp line with a Meyercord Case Packer, no plans to add additional equipment and an air run of threaded pipe 50 from your compressor to stamping equipment, you should select a compressor which can supply at least 1.30 x ( ) = 11.7 CFM of compressed air at 90 psi. If you are planning to use a reciprocating air compressor, it is typical practice to size the output of the compressor to be 1.5 to 2.0 times larger than the amount of air you expect to consume on an ongoing basis. In this way, the compressor will not need to run continuously. Following the example of the VL-10 Stamp Machine with a Meyercord Case Packer, you would need to specify 17 to 23 CFM of compressed air at 90 psi to allow your compressor to run at a reduced duty cycle. Reciprocating compressor manufacturers often recommend that running on a reduced duty cycle will extend the life of your reciprocating compressor. (Scroll style compressors, on the other hand, are more commonly run 100% of the time and as a result, it is not necessary to include this extra factor when selecting a scroll compressor. Still, specifying a larger compressor always allows for future compressed air capability.) When selecting an air compressor, it is important to note that the volume of air it can provide, usually stated in SCFM or CFM depends upon what pressure you are supplying the air at. For the purposes of selecting a compressor system to drive your Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment, you need only be concerned with how much air the compressor can supply at 90 psi. If a compressor is specified for an air output at a higher pressure, for example, psi, you can estimate the amount of air this compressor will deliver at 90 psi by multiplying as follows: 19 scfm x (135 psi / 90 psi) = 28 scfm.

14 2) Can I use a shared source ( shop air ) of compressed air for the Stamping Equipment? While some customer facilities already have an available source of compressed air, typically known as shop air, United Silicone strongly recommends against using these sources of compressed air for operating our stamping equipment. Typically shop air is shared among multiple uses within a facility and the available volume of compressed air varies from moment to moment and day to day. Each time the available air volume on these shared systems drops below the levels required by our equipment, the stamping equipment will begin to perform irregularly. In addition, shop air is typically intended for low performance machines such as air-operated hand-tools. The air used to operate these lower performance machines typically has much higher levels of air line contamination (from grit, water and oil) than can be well tolerated within the precision machinery of the Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment. The use of contaminated shop air can lead to costly and lengthy stamping equipment damages and downtime. United Silicone recommends dedicated, clean, dry air for use with our equipment. 3) What about moisture, dirt and oil in the compressed air system? The quality of the air supplied to your stamping equipment is important. The three most common contaminants in compressed air supplies are water, grit and oil. Water is the most common contaminant. Water typically enters the system as incoming air is compressed. Air can hold less and less humidity as it is compressed. The humidity which is squeezed out of the air as it is compressed condenses within the compressor, tank and air lines. This is particularly common if the relative humidity of the incoming air is high such as in facilities near lakes, rivers and oceans. In addition, cold air holds less humidity than warm air. Air leaving a compressor is typically warm often on the order of 150 F or more. If this air is rapidly cooled, for example, if the air line leaves the compressor and then travels through a cold warehouse or passes between two buildings, moisture can condense out and collect inside the air lines. Compressed air delivery systems need to be designed to remove excess moisture from the air and air lines. This is typically accomplished with a piece of equipment known as a Dryer. Two types desiccant dryers and refrigerated dryers are commonly used. Most air compressors have built in air filters designed to remove dirt and grit from incoming air. Standard industrial grade air compressor filters typically remove all particles greater than 1 micron in diameter and are sufficient for use with all Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment. Some compressed air systems are designed to add lubricant to the compressed air to reduce the wear and improve the performance of certain types of machinery. Other air delivery systems contain air/oil separators to remove oil from the compressed air. All Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment is designed to operate on clean (no particles or oil); dry (no water) air. All Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment comes standard with their own, integral coalescing filter bowls which are designed to remove oil, water and dirt which mayhave passed through the primary systems in the compressed air delivery system, but these systems are intended only to remove occasional contaminants and do NOT eliminate the need for properly filtered and dried air delivery systems.

15 4) What compressor and related equipment do I need? Most compressed air systems include each of the following components: Compressor & Storage Tank The primary choices among compressor types are piston/reciprocating vs. rotary/screw. Among the piston compressors you will select between single and dual head compressors and lubricated vs. oil-less. Screw compressors are generally more expensive but significantly quieter, usually less than 70 dba at a distance of 3 feet from the compressor (a level of sound typical on a busy downtown street) while reciprocating compressors are often above 80 dba (a level of sound similar to that near a typical residential gasoline powered lawn mower.) The level of sound-output is an important consideration and should not be overlooked. Since it is desirable to have the compressor located near the stamping equipment it should be noted that it is difficult to converse and sometimes distracting to work in the particularly noisy environment surrounding a reciprocating compressor. Ideally the compressor can be moved around a corner, behind a wall, or one floor above or below the area where operators will be working but keep in mind that it is also important to try to have the compressor, delivery lines and stamping equipment all at nearly the same temperature as described elsewhere in this document. Screw compressors have fewer wearing components and generally require a simpler maintenance schedule. Screw compressors also deliver cleaner air with no oil in the air. This generally extends the life of the stamping equipment by reducing buildup inside of cylinders and air valves. If a reciprocating compressor is used it is important to select a high quality oil-coalescing filter to try to remove as much oil as possible from the compressed air stream. The number of heads (1 or 2) on a piston compressor relates to the total amount of air output. Generally dual head compressors will handle larger CFM requirements (typically 30+ CFM at 90 psi). As mentioned earlier, rotary compressors are usually designed to run a 100% duty cycle while most reciprocating compressors are usually used on a 50%-66% duty cycle. As such, it is usually necessary to specify a larger capacity reciprocating compressor in order to provide the same output as a rotary compressor. A storage tank is designed to allow the compressor to not have to run full time to supply all of the necessary air flow. Typically a tank is sized to be 2-4 gallons per CFM output from the compressor (example, a 20 CFM compressor typically has a gallon tank). In many cases, water will condense inside portions of the compressed air circuit including the compressed air tank. These tanks are designed with drains so that the water can be removed regularly (typically daily). Keep in mind that a significant amount of water can be removed, so it is important to have a drain or other means to remove the collected water from your facility. Aftercooler The aftercooler is used to bring the temperature of the compressed air to sufficiently low temperatures so that it can be properly dried by either a desiccant dryer or refrigerated dryer. In some systems, the aftercooler and dryer are integrated into a single system. Most aftercoolers are similar to automobile radiators consisting of a heat exchanger and a fan which forces room air past the heat exchanger to cool the compressed air. Dryer Under typical warehouse operating conditions, a dryer is needed which has a throughput (SCFM) equal to or greater than the total anticipated compressed air requirement. Drying capacity is specified in units of Dew Point. A typical refrigerated dryer supplies air with a maximum dew point of around 37F meaning that the air exiting the dryer would not be expected to condense out moisture if it were kept above a temperature of 37F. When selecting a dryer for a facility where the ambient temperatures are expected to fall below the dew point of the dryer, please consult directly with Meyercord Service or a compressor dryer manufacture to discuss the

16 specific details of the installation. Special Desiccant Dryers are available that can produce very low dew points if needed. Regardless of which type of dryer you use, note that depending upon the conditions of operation, significant quantities of water may be removed by the dryer. It is usually necessary to have a floor drain or other provision near the dryer to allow easy removal of the condensed water from your facility. Delivery Piping Delivery piping is often overlooked in the system design and problems with too small line diameters and too long piping runs can cause significant operational difficulties. Common problems to avoid include: Use large diameter piping. All piping should be a minimum of ½ dia for 0-30 CFM and ¾ dia for CFM. Above 60 CFM, consult Meyercord Service or a compressor equipment manufacturer for a custom piping plan be designed. Use short piping runs between the compressor and the equipment. Maintain all piping runs of ½ tubing to less than 40 feet and ¾ tubing to less than 75 feet. The maximum distance from the compressor to all pieces of equipment should be less than 75 feet. Avoid serial placement of equipment along a single piping run instead use a central manifold with individual branches to each piece of equipment. (Otherwise the last piece of equipment on the piping run may become starved as equipment upstream consumes the air before it reaches the last piece.) The temperature of air surrounding the compressed air delivery system is very important. The simplest arrangement is when the compressor, all delivery piping and the stamping equipment all remain at nearly the same temperature. If you are planning to locate the compressor in a different room, or in an outdoor shed, or if the delivery piping will pass through walls between areas of different temperature (for example, if the compressor is in one building and the delivery piping goes outside and then into the next building before reaching the stamping equipment) United Silicone recommends that you work with a qualified local compressor company to address the specifics of your installation in a custom piping plan. 5) Can I purchase my compressed air equipment through United Silicone? Will Meyercord Service repair my compressed air equipment? United Silicone can provide you with an air solution system that includes quality manufactured parts that are recommended above. Purchasing your air system through United Silicone ensures proper installation, service and warranty to maximize the potential of your Meyercord brand tax stamping equipment. Please contact United Silicone or your Meyercord Service technician for more details and pricing. 6) What about compliance with local laws / codes? United Silicone is used in many different jurisdictions and regulatory environments. While we endeavor to provide safe and reliable equipment and installation recommendations which represent generally accepted industry practice, the end user is ultimately responsible for selecting, installing and plumbing the compressed air system in such a manner so as to meet all local ordinances and applicable safety and plumbing codes. United Silicone recommend that each customer work with a locally licensed contractor and/or plumber to ensure that the completed final system is in full compliance. United Silicone takes no responsibility in this regard and makes no representation that the recommendations in this document and those of our field service technicians and other employees are necessarily in complete compliance with our customers site-specific regulatory and/or safety requirements.
