MIX AND APPLY THE ADHESIVE <br />Step 1 <br />Read Adhesive Applications Guidelines. <br />Step 2 <br />Check date on adhesive. Adhesive shelf life is six <br />months. <br />Step 3 <br />Thoroughly mix two part adhesive in accordance with <br />the detailed mixing instructions contained in the adhe- <br />sive kit (Kit AD). <br />NOTE: Properly mixed adhesive will turn dark red. <br />Step 4 <br />Apply with supplied application tool. <br />Step 5 <br />Fill the channel from outside turbine enclosure. <br />CURING <br />Step 1 <br />Allow adhesive to cure 24 hours minimum. <br />NOTE: Mating parts must not be moved before adhe- <br />sive is fully cured. <br />Step 2 <br />For outside ambient temperatures below 60°F, apply <br />supplemental heat to initiate adhesive curing process. <br />NOTE: See Adhesive Application Guidelines. <br />TESTING <br />Step 1 <br />Read Section DS, Hydrostatic Water Test for details. <br />FIGURE 29 <br />@Sand these surfaces first, place <br />turbine enclosure onto collar, <br />then appy adhesive into the <br />adhesive channel, <br />NTE REDUCER & LID � <br />ADHESIVE <br />CHANNEL <br />TURBINE P1PE BODY <br />CONTAINMENT COLLAR <br />ADHESIVE APPLICATION GUIDELINES: <br />ASPHYXIATION FIRE <br />EXPLOSION <br />THE ADHESIVE MATERIALS AND VAPORS ARE FLAM- <br />MABLE. TO PREVENT FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD, IF A <br />HEATGUN (OROTHER IGNITION SOURCE) IS USED FOR <br />SUPPLEMENTAL HEAT, FIRST EVACUATE FLAMMABLE VA- <br />PORS WHICH MAYACCUMULATE IN THE TURBINE EN- <br />CLOSURE. <br />ADHESIVE APPLICATION GUIDELINES: <br />Use the following guidelines, which are based on out- <br />side ambient temperature, to mix and apply adhe- <br />sive. (Adhesive shelf life is six months. Check pro- <br />duction date on box). <br />When required for turbine enclosure adhesive: <br />• Recommended method for supplemental heat is <br />to transfer warm air to the turbine enclosure while <br />keeping ignition sources away. <br />Heat sources: <br />• Salamander heater. <br />• Radiant heater. <br />• Heat gun (maximum output temperature 200°F) <br />❑ Can be used for turbine enclosure adhesive if <br />outside temperature is at least 45°F. <br />For cold and cool weather (less than 60°F): <br />• Preheat the adhesive to 65-75°F. <br />• Mix adhesive. <br />• Add supplemental heat inside the assembled tur- <br />bine enclosure to raise temperature of collar and <br />enclosure to 60°F minimum, 1507 maximum. <br />• Apply adhesive. <br />• Continue to apply supplemental heat to adhesive <br />until it hardens (30 minutes minimum). <br />Warm Weather (between 61°F and 85°F): <br />• Adhesive will harden in approximately 30 minutes. <br />❑ No supplemental heat required. <br />Hot weather (above 85°F): <br />• Apply adhesive more rapidly (itWII harden in 15 min- <br />utes). <br />• (Alternate) Cool the adhesive to 60°F to slow down <br />chemical reaction. <br />❑ Increases allowable application time. <br />CONTINUED ON PAGE 22 <br />21 <br />
