TM5-3895-374-10No. Panel Value Operation6ScreenScreen-repeat monitoring process at 10 minute intervalsuntil desired production rate has been reached.The M081 Asphalt Mixing Plant is rated at 150 tons per hour. This production rate is determined by a number of significantfactors. The production rate of the plant may be increased as long as the mix being produced is within tolerance and thecomponents of the AMP are not overloaded. As the production rate approaches 150 tons per hour and subsequentlyexceeds it, the monitoring of the plant controls and mechanical operation must be intensified.If problems occur at the higher production rate:Decrease plant production. See section 2-15Shut down plant production. See section 2-18Implement corrective steps to control the operating malfunction.

If thetemperature increases, slowly decrease the burner firingrate by pressing the DOWN ARROW on the StackControl.4DBurner control panel-monitor stack temperature in upperscreen of Stack Control (should be 300°). Verify setpoint value, in lower screen, is 300. Burner is still onautomatic temperature control and will maintain setpoint.page 2-110
