(2) Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
WARNING Ensure that there is no flame- or arc-generating device
around theprinter.The ink and makeup are both flammable and may cause
fire. Fire can be generated by matches, lighters, cigarettes,
heaters, stoves, gas burners, welders, grinders and static
electricity. Arcs may be generated from open-type relays, switches,
and brush motors. Before handling the ink and makeup, remove static
electricity from your body, peripheral equipment, and so on. In the
interest of safety, position a dry-chemical fire extinguisher near
the printer.Since the ink and makeup contain organic solvents, install the
printer at an adequately ventilated location.Never install the printer in an enclosed space.Connect exhaust
equipment to the printer in order to prevent it from fillingwith
organic solvent vapor.Do not insert tweezers, a screwdriver, or any other metal
article into the ink ejection hole in the end of the print
head.When the printer is ready to print, a high voltage
(approximately 6 kV) is applied to the deflection electrode section
in the print head. Exercise caution to avoid electric shock,
injury, and fire.Do not remove the outer covering. A high voltage is applied to
some sections of the printer. Exercise caution to avoid electric
shock and injury.Use an AC voltage of 100 to120 V or 200 to 240 V 10% only and a
power frequency of 50 or 60 Hz only.If the above requirements are
not met, the electric parts may overheat and burn, creating a risk
of fire or electric shock.Never drain the ink or makeup waste solution into a public sewer
system.Waste disposal must comply with all appropriate regulations.
Consult the appropriate regulatory agency for further
information.Exercise caution to avoid inadvertently disconnecting, forcibly
pulling, or bending piping tubes.Since the ink and makeup in some
portions of piping tubes are pressurized, they may splash into your
eyes or mouth or onto your hands or clothing.If any ink or makeup
enters your eyes or mouth, immediately flush with warm or cold
water and consult a physician.12

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
WARNING While the printer is operating, do not look into the ink
ejection hole in theend of the print head. Ink or makeup may enter your eyes or
mouth or soil your hands or clothing. If any ink or makeup enters
your eyes or mouth, immediately flush with warm orcold water and consult a physician.
Before servicing the printer, be sure to stop the ink
ejection.Because ink or makeup may splash into your eyes or mouth
or onto your hands or clothing. If any ink or makeup enters your
eyes or mouth, immediately flush with warm or cold water and
consult a physician.If an earthquake, fire, or other emergency occurs while the
printer is engaged in printing or just turned on, press the Main
power switch to turn off the power.The printer must be managed in compliance with all appropriate
regulations.Read and understand the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet

(4) Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
WARNING When charging a refill of ink or makeup, exchanging ink,
or otherwisehandling ink or makeup, take enough care not to spill ink or
makeup.If you spill any ink or makeup by mistake, wipe it off
neatly and promptly with wiping paper or something similar. Do not
close the maintenance cover until you make sure that the portion
you have just wiped is completely dry.You must pay particular attention when you have spilled ink or
makeup inside the printer and it is not completely dry. Why?
Because vapors of ink or makeup will stay inside the printer and
may catch on or cause a fire.If you find it hard to wipe the printer when it is turned on,
stop it with the maintenance cover open. Power it down, and then
wipe it off again.If you wish to clean the casing of the printer with wiping paper
impregnated with makeup, be sure to do so with the power off.Attempting to clean it when the power is on will cause makeup or
vapors of makeup to enter the printer, possibly catching on or
causing a fire. When the cleaning is over, open the maintenance
cover and make sure that no makeup has entered and no vapors remain
inside.Should you find a leak of ink or makeup inside the printer while
the printer is running or being maintained, wipe it off promptly
with wiping paper or something similar. Then, with the maintenance
cover open, stop the printer, power it down, and repair the
leak.Continuing operation with a leak of ink or makeup will cause an
anomaly, resulting in abnormal printing. Ink and makeup are
flammable. They may therefore catch on or cause a fire.If you wish to receive ink particles in a beaker, for a printing
test for example, use an electrically conductive beaker and connect
the beaker securely to the ground.Do not let the tip of the printing head enter the beaker.
Ink particles used for printing are electrically charged. An
ungrounded beaker has a gradually rising charge, possibly catching
on or causing a fire.Ensure that all electrical wiring, connections and grounding
comply with applicable cords. Properly connect the printer to its
dedicated ground.Complete the above procedure to avoid electrical shock
hazards.When welding, keep enough space between the IJ printer and the
welding work area to prevent the arc from starting a fire. Also, be
sure toinsulate the printhead and IJ printer frame to keep the welding
current from flowing to the control section of the printer, and to
make a separate ground connection for the printer. -
Safety Precautions (5)
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
CAUTION Only persons who have completed an operator training
course forHitachi IJP can operate and service the printer.If the printer
is operated or serviced incorrectly, it may malfunction or break
down.Do not attempt to make repairs for any purpose other than
operation or maintenance.Since the ink and makeup contain organic solvents, observe the
following handling precautions.Secure adequate space for the ink/makeup handling area and
printer installation site. At least 200 m must be provided per
print head. Ensure that adequate ventilation is provided.When
handling the ink or makeup, wear protective gloves and safety
goggles to avoid direct skin contact. If the ink or makeup comes
into contact with skin, wash thoroughly with soap and warm or cold
water.When transferring the ink or makeup to or from a bottle,
exercise caution to prevent it coming into contact with the printer
or surrounding articles. If there is any spillage, immediately wipe
it clean using a cloth moistened with makeup.Ink and makeup must be stored as flammable liquids. Storage must
comply with local regulatory requirements. Consult the appropriate
regulatory agency for further information.If extraneous noise enters the printer, it may malfunction or
break down.For maximum noise immunity, observe the following
installation and wiring precautions.Ensure that 100 to 120 VAC or 200 to 240 VAC power cables are
not bundled with other power supply cables.Insulate the printer
main body and print head so that they do not come into direct
contact with the conveyor or other devices.If the employed print
target detector is housed in a metal case, use a plastic mounting
brace for the purpose of insulating the detector from the conveyor
and other devices.Be sure that the print target detector wiring is
not bundled together with other power supply cables.Please make sure the print status and print content are correct
each time when you start operation of IJP.Please implement periodical checkup of print status in the
process, even including during production.A touch panel is employed for data entry to operation screen.
When manipulating the Touch panel, use only fingers. If the touch
panel is operated with metal and/or sharp objects such as ball
point pen, it may malfunction or break down.1

Storage temperature Shutdown Period Guideline *1
0 to35 C 3 weeks35 to 40 C 2 weeks40 to 45 C 1 week
1.1 Ink and makeup (1) Ink and makeup replenishment
The printer employs an automatic ink/makeup replenishment
system. While the printer is operated, the ink reservoir
automatically supplies the ink and the makeup reservoir
automatically supplies the makeup to the ink main tank at regular
intervals. If the ink or makeup replenisher level is too low, an
alarm is issued. In this case, replenish the ink or makeup without
delay.(For the replenishment procedures, see Section 8.)(2) Ink periodic replacementFor the replacement procedures, see
Technical Manual Chapter 6.While the IJ printer ink circulates for
operations, it reacts with the atmospheric air elements and
deteriorates with time. Therefore, it needs periodic replacement.
The guide for determining the replacement interval conforms to the
handling guidance of each ink.*What is makeup? :The makeup serves as the replenisher that
makes up for the constituent loss due to ink evaporation during ink
ejection. It is also used as a cleaning solution.1.2 IJ printer long-term shutdownWhen the IJ printer is shut
down for a long time due to production or other circumstances, the
ink may accrete inside of the printer and cause such problems as
inability to be ejected or to be recovered. When this occurs, the
following actions must be taken.Prevent accretion by operating the printer periodically.Operate
(eject ink) the printer for 1 hour or longer at least once during
the Shutdown Period Guideline shown in the table below.Perform long-term shutdown storage work.Before storage, drain
the ink from inside the printer and fill the printer with
makeup.When restarting operation after storage, drain the makeup
from inside the printer and fill the printer with ink.Refer to
Technical manual 6.15 Long-term Shutdown for detail.*1: Maximum period the printer can be continuously shut down
without being operated.The values in the table are for MEK based
ink.Handling of ink other than the above requires special handling
in accordance with the handlingguidance of each ink.
1. USAGE PRECAUTIONS
Since Perform long-term shutdown storage work requires special
work, it is recommended to contact your local distributor and ask
for the work.CAUTION

1-2 Print head cleaning
1.3 Print head cleaningTake the following precautions when
cleaning ink from around the nozzle.(1) Orient the end of the print head downward and pour makeup
onto the dirty part and clean while catching the makeup in a
beaker.(2) After cleaning, thoroughly wipe the print head with wiping
paper and allow it to dry.Thoroughly dry the nozzle, charge
electrode, deflection electrode, mounting base and fringe of the
gutter. Confirm that the parts are sufficiently dry before starting
the next operation. If operated while wet, the printer will not
start normally.While the print head is wet, do not orient its end
upward.(3) Never immerse the print head in the makeup.
(4)When printing is frequently performed or the distance between
the print material and the print head is short, ink splashes may
stain the end of the print head and the print head cover. If this
condition is left unresolved, the stained status will be made
worse, resulting in a print error or emergency stop. If a print
error or emergency stop frequently occurs because of stain due to
ink splashes, stop the operation in progress and clean the end of
the print head (around the nozzle, charge electrode, deflection
electrode, mounting base and gutter) and the print head cover. Do
this in addition to the cleaning to be performed at the end of each
days work.Air purging of the print head is effective against staining due
to ink splashing.See the Technical Manual 3.1 Print head air
purge.Cleaning range
Do not pour the makeup over this section.Wipe the print head
clean with wiping paper dampened with the makeup.Nozzle

1.4 Shutdown (no-cleaning stop)When you press the Shutdown on
the upper right-hand corner of the screen, the printer stops after
completing its automatic nozzle cleaning sequence. If you
repeatedly activate the Shutdown to stop an operation, excessive
makeup will enter the printer, thereby thinning the ink or
producing an unduly high ink main tank solution level. If it is
absolutely necessary to repeatedly stop the printer operation, use
the following procedure.2015.07.07 12:45

1-4 Cautions on operating time when printer is in service
1.6 Heating of ink(1) If the ambient temperature is under
approximately 20 C, the ink is heated by a heating unit in the
print head. The startup processing time relative to when not
operating becomes long.When not operating: Approximately 1.5 minutes When operating:
Maximum approximately 10 minutes (Changes depending on the ambient
temperature)*Depending on the type of ink, the heating unit may not be used.
Refer to the handling guidance of each ink.(2) When a heating unit fault occurs, take care of the following
items.If a heating unit fault occurs, the messages Ink Heating Unit
too High, Ink Heating Unit Temperature Sensor Fault, or Ink Heating
Unit Over Current are displayed and the IJ printer fault stops.The
IJ printer can be restarted by pressing the Reset or Close .
However, the ink will not be heated even if the temperature drops
thereafter.Once do not perform ink heating is set, the following message is
always displayed whenever the power is turned on thereafter. Cancel
the message by pressing the Close and be sure to inform your
nearest local distributor.If the printer is temporally operated in «do not perform ink
heating» status, the operation of the printer may become possible
by resetting the excitation voltage.Reset the excitation voltage according to Technical Manual 6.11
Excitation V Adjustment.Ink Temperature Correction Notice
The selected setup does not allow ink temperature corrections to
be made.Solution Contact your local distributor.
Close
1.5 Cautions on operating time when printer is in service
(1) Cautions when printer is repeatedly stopped immediately
after the start of operationIf you repeatedly stop the printer immediately after the start
of operation, automatic nozzle cleaning at shutdown will cause the
ink in the IJ printer to gradually become thinner. For stable
operation of the IJ printer, operate the printer for a given amount
of time or more once started.( =in Ink eject status) During the
operation, the ink viscosity is adjusted automatically and returns
to the initial value. The required amount of operation time varies
depending on the ambient temperature or ink types used.Refer to the
handling guidance of each ink for details.(2) Caution when daily operating time is relatively longThe IJ
printer emits an ink jet when printing, so the outside and inside
of the print head cover will become dirty with accumulated ink
spillage during operation. To prevent printing defects due to this
ink accumulation, periodically check the head cover and clean it as
required.1

Ink concentration control 1-5
No Ink Concentration Control
The current settings have made ink concentration control
unavailable.Solution Contact your local distributor.
Close
1.7 Ink concentration control
(1) The ink is automatically controlled to maintain optimum
concentration for printing. *Depending on the type of ink, ink
concentration control may not be performed by viscometer. Refer to
the handling guidance of each ink.(2)If an error occurs in the viscometer which is used to control
ink concentration, take care of the following points:There are
three types of viscometer errors:Viscometer Ink Temperature Sensor Fault, Viscometer Reading
Instability, and Viscometer Reading Out of Range.When a Viscometer Ink Temperature Sensor Fault occurs, the unit
will enter the fault stop state.Re-start is possible by pressing
the Close , but the setting will be changed to the state in which
ink concentration control based on the measured result using the
viscometer is not performed thereafter.Once the setting of
automatic concentration control is released, every time the power
is turned on, the following message will appear. Cancel the message
by pressing the Close and be sure to inform your nearest local
distributor.When Viscosity Reading Instability or Viscosity Readings Out of
Range occurs, the unit will not enter the fault stop state and
printing can be continued. However, you should contact your nearest
local distributor for inspection.1

1.8 Gutter cleaningThe IJ printer collects ink not used for
printing from the gutter. At the same time, it sucks in atmospheric
gas, dust, and other matter from the air. If these substances are
mixed with the ink in the gutter, undissolved components in the ink
or makeup may stick to the gutter. If the system is run for 24
consecutive hours without automatic cleaning, these components will
gradually accumulate in the gutter. This, together with the ink
stream coming into contact with it, may cause such errors as an
error stemming from a dirty head.If any such component sticks to
the gutter, immerse it in a solution of about 0.5% household
dishwashing detergent and clean it for about 10 minutes with an
ultrasonic cleaner. The dirt can then be removed. -
1-6 Protection sheet
1.9 Protection sheet
A protection sheet is provided to protect the screen display of
the IJ printer.This is used to prevent the screen display from
becoming dirty, scratched, etc.(1) Installing the protection sheetClean all dirt, debris, ink,
etc., from the panel surface.Use a paper wipe, etc., soaked in
water or makeup to wipe the display clean.*Install the protection
sheet after the panel surface has dried.Peel off the removable

Универсальный промышленный каплеструйный маркиратор HITACHI RX2-SD160W, модель 2014 года, предназначен для промышленной маркировки продукции в 1-3 строки (до 5 строк опционально). Идеально подходит для решения широкого круга задач: печати даты производства/срока годности, текстовой информации, логотипов, штриховых и 2D кодов и др.
Печатающая головка принтера RX2, на основе из литого алюминия, специально спроектирована для использования в чрезвычайно сложных условиях производства. Конструктивно спроектирована для облегчения очистки во время эксплуатации, снижения эксплуатационных расходов и достижения превосходного результата при длительной эксплуатации (технически, в печатающей головке возможно заменить даже самую мелкую деталь — нет необходимости менять всю головку целиком). Установка печатающей головки на производственной линии может быть либо прямая, либо под углом в 90° (без дополнительных комплектующих).
Интуитивно понятный пользовательский интерфейс, сенсорная цветная панель 10.4″ с функцией оперативных развернутых подсказок позволяют оператору приступить к работе с маркиратором практически без предварительного обучения.
