Commissioning and operation
Step-by-step commissioning
Before commissioning the entire system, check each of the individual functions step-
by-step.
1. First check the valves for correct assignment of the control signals.
2. Then check the pneumatic functions.
3. Only commission the entire system after following the above steps.
7
Service and maintenance
The TC08/TC15 valve terminal system is maintenance-free.
NOTICE
Commissioning may only be carried out by qualified electrical or pneumatic
personnel or an instructed person under the direction and supervision of qualified
personnel (see also “Personnel qualifications”).
WARNING
Risk of uncontrolled actuator movements when the pneumatics are switched
on!
There is a danger of personnel injury if the system is in an undefined state.
O
Put the system in a defined state before switching it on.
CAUTION
Damage to the surface caused by solvents and aggressive detergents!
The surfaces and seals could be damaged by aggressive solvents and cleaning
agents.
O
Never use solvents or aggressive detergents.
O
Comply with the maintenance intervals and specifications for the entire system.
