Parts/Tools required for Replacement of IH47V Head Unit Assembly

When the head unit assembly is replaced, the following parts/tools are used. Prepare them in advance.
-

IH47V Head unit assembly (M007034)

Head inside washing tool (M005027) * Equivalent for JV3
Washings for replacement of S-head (M005026) * Equivalent for JV3
Phillips type screwdriver (No.2 M3-M5)
Hexagonal wrench (Opposite side: 2.5mm Bondhus type magnetized)
Small minus screwdriver

Preparation of Replacing Head (Washing with MS washings)

Use a protection glass and gloves during works. It may happen to hurt eyes by ink or to chap hands
(skin) due to contacts depending on working conditions.

Main washing must be done before the replacement of head assembly.

It is required to wash it with washings for replacement of S-head (MS washings) before the
replacement of head assembly since deposits may be generated by reaction of water solution (S-46)
contained within the head at factory-shipping with solvent ink.

Replace the head inside washing tool periodically since a syringe rubber of the head inside washing
tool has no solvent resistance.

WARNING

Washing Procedures

Basically, the appearance of head is different from JV3, however the same work procedure is applied as
JV3 since the dumper set part is the same.
1) Remove the dumper assembly from the head inside washing tool.
2) Apply washings for replacement of S-head to a syringe by approx. 15cc.
3) Connect the S-dumper assembly to the syringe.
4) Insert Dumper-inserting protrusions (8) of the replacing head in order.
Caution Pay attention to dripping of MS washings when the dumper is inserted or removed, especially
attention to the FPC connector connecting part. This may cause to damage the head.
5) Pour washings for the replacement by 3-4 cc for approx. 30 seconds. (Pour washings slowly otherwise the
head may be damaged.)
Caution Don t touch the nozzle surface with waste, nor rub the nozzle surface. This may cause failure
in discharging.

Procedures
1) Set the head unit to the carriage-out condition at the center of Platen by panel-operations.
2) Turn the power OFF, and disconnect a power cable.
3) Remove covers required for replacing of head. (Front cover, Top cover, etc.)
4) Remove Head cover.

5) Head to be replaced (Example: as Head 3)

Remove Dumper lock SP. (2 springs per 1 head)
Dumper lock SP

Head 3

Dumper

6) Draw out Dumpers (8) from the head.

Note: At this time, it is recommended to wrap
each Dumper in a waste softly to avoid
ink dripping. This JV5 Dumper equips a
self-sealed valve, it therefore occurs
no ink flow out but may occur ink leakage
by a pressure in contacting to the side
clear film part.

7) Unscrew screws (M3 screw x3), and remove the

head from Head base (AD plate).

8) Remove FPC cable and Head unit holder B from

the removed head.

FPC holder

9) Assemble a new head in the procedures reverse to the described in above.

Caution At this time, as notes in assembling of head;

1) For assembling, toward the main body, set it pushing to Inner + Right lightly, then screw
down in diagonal (in above order).
2) When pushing is too strong, it may cause effect on image quality due to distortion of the
head box since the box is made of plastic.

3.

Filling of Ink

For the filling procedures of ink in replacing of head, the procedures are selected properly
depending on the following two situations. In order to save ink, use the proper ink filling
procedures and improve the work efficiency.

Two Dumper Conditions in Filling of Ink

1) Ink remaining in Dumper (No replacement of Dumper)
Defining the cleaning operation [Hard][Normal] as One set, Repeat this set until no failure due to nozzle
clogging is observed on test printings.

2) No ink (Empty) in Dumper (In the case of Dumper replaced)

According to the following procedures, fill up ink.

Traps ink within the pipe. (Note 1)
Cap for Bottle
To prevent ink leakage when Cap is closed with Bottle.
Holder for Bottle and Cap
Bottle must be stood up for use.
Fixing Cap Screws Evenly tighten 3 screws to avoid leakage of ink or air. (Note 2)
Negative Pressure G. Checks pressure within piping.
Syringe
Use to suck air in the pipe to be tested.
Note 1: Be sure to drain ink and detergent in the piping to be tested.
Ink to be trapped in the bottle is not more than 10mL.
Note 2: Tighten the screws softly and evenly.
Too firm or uneven tightening may cause air leakage.
Note 3: Operate the syringe as slow as the pressure falls 1kPa every second.
3. Check Before Test
Check that every part of this detector is free from air leakage before starting air leakage test for the aimed pip
Press the piston of syringe to the end, and turn on the power of Negative Pressure Gage.
Close the end of Suction Nozzle with a finger, and slowly pull up the piston.
Fix the piston with fingers when the reading of the gage becomes -15kPa.
Keep the status for 10 seconds. Test is judged OK if the pressure is kept during the period.
If the reading falls down, air must be leaked at tube connection. Then take a measure.
4. How to Use
If charging ink is failed through normal procedure, piping would be opened at a fitting to reduce pressure.
Do the air leakage test in 2 parts, Cartridge to Head Damper and Head to Pump.
If either or both of them are failed in the test, check every connection one by one to ensure airtightness.
This detector is a tool to find air leakage points.

-19-

1 Test for Part from Cartridge to Head Damper

Cartridge valve must be closed together with the valve within Head Damper when the main power is off.
Then air leakage test can be conducted on this part.
Back Right Head

Back Left Head

Front Left Head

Front Right Head

Above is the left view of Head where Head Cover has been removed.
Remove two fixtures for Head Damper in front left.
Release Quick Lock A for Front Left Head.

Softly insert Suction Nozzle of this detector to the Quick Lock.

Piston of syringe must be at the bottom.
Turn on the power of Negative Pressure Gage, and slowly draw up the piston until the pressure becom
-15kPa. Stop the piston and wait for 10 seconds. When the pressure is kept, the test is passed.
If the pining has air leakage around connection, pressure value will come up toward 0kPa.
If the pressure is kept as initial, the piping circuit A through 4 Heads (Front left and right, and back lef
and right) is verified to be good.
If the pressure changes, every connections in the circuit should be checked.
Repeat the same procedure for other piping circuits B to H to confirm airtightness.
2 Test for Part from Head to Pump
Test airtightness between Head and Pump subject to the airtightness tested in 1 being good.
In this part, test airtightness for each Head, while a ping circuit in the previous part extends through 4 Head
Turn off the power as every Head Cover is put on.
Close right 2 Pumps. (Turn Motor Gears in the photo below 2 or 3 times in the arrow direction until
they chatter. And the pump is closed.)

JV5 controls the detection operations for Waste Ink Tank shown below. This specification provides descriptions
for such mechanical operations.
Presence/absence of Waste Ink Tank
Near-full or Full of waste ink in Waste Ink Tank
The above controls are aimed at:
Preventing the failure of setting Waste Ink Tank; and
Preventing ink in Waste Ink Tank from overflowing without operators notice.

2. OPERATIONS
Waste Ink Tank Detection (Presence/Absence)

Install Detector Plate on Tank Fixture as shown in Fig. 1. Setting ink tank hits the plate to interrupt
sensor beam of Photo Interrupter I.

 Ink Tank Full/Near-full Detection

Hang Waste Ink Tank with a spring to detect the descent of tank by its own weight so as to put out Full
and Near-full Signals.

As waste ink is collected in the tank after empty tank is mounted to interrupt sensor beam as described in
, the recess on BKT also descends to release the interruption by Photo Interrupter II. Near-full Signal is
given when Photo Interrupter I is only working (Fig. 2).
When ink is further collected to shift the tank lower, Photo Interrupter I also works to interrupt sensor
beam (Fig. 2). This is the status of Full.

3. CONTROLS
During drawing:
If Near-full is detected:

Ongoing data output is continued. The following operation is suspended

unless ink is disposed.

If Full is detected:

Drawing is immediately stopped even under putting out file.

During cleaning:
If Near-full is detected:

Cleaning is continued. The following operation is suspended unless ink is

disposed.

If Full is detected:

Cleaning is stopped. (Suction by pump is only stopped.)

During ink charge

If Near-full is detected:

Charging is continued. The following operation is suspended unless ink is

disposed.

If Full is detected:

Charging is stopped. (Charging is continued after ink is disposed.)
