1 Features of the ANUJ 3000/3500 The ANUJ 3000/3500 is an UV curing device that quickly hardens UV resins (inks, adhesives, and coatings) via irradiation with UV light from an LED light source. The focused application of UV radiation to UV resins coated on minute surfaces (2 to 3 mm dia.) such as the lenses of CD, MD, and DVD players, and the LCD panels of notebook PCs, enables precise adhesion.
Page 12
Features of the ANUJ 3000/3500 ■Universal design for easy operation Easy operation has been achieved by the product’s universal design, including the large-sized color LED display with a high level of visibility and the operation switches located at optimal locations. After connecting the head, UV irradiation can be started simply by selecting a channel (CH), setting the UV power (%) and irradiation time (TIME), and then pressing [EMISSION].

13 Troubleshooting Symptoms Checks/Remedies LED does not irradiate. Did you select the target channel for the product type? (When selected, the channel switch is lit or flashing.) →Select the target channel when setting the product type. If the target channel is selected but does not irradiate, check if the irradiation time is set to 0.0sec for the channel program for the target product type.
