Magnus^® 800

Background

The universal debris removal cabinet (UDRC) hose extends from the thermal head and runs along the length of the carriage. The hose exits the platesetter on the left side and connects to the external UDRC:



A faulty UDRC hose may lead to badly exposed images and a build-up of debris/ablasion on the carriage and V-grooves.
This procedure describes how to inspect the UDRC hose on Magnus 800.

Procedure

5. Remove the UDRC nozzle from the head, and then activate the UDRC. Make sure there is a vacuum.
   Note: A vacuum level detector will be installed in the EP. The detector will determine if the UDRC is operating at the optimal vacuum level.
