Pressure regulator with filter
„
The control valve can be operated manually by using this regulator in conjunction with the
Auto/Manual switching function.
„
Use a 3 μm or better filter to solid-state particulate matter from the air supply.
„
If a filter is not provided on the regulator, insert a separate 3 μm or better filter immediately
before the regulator.
Shutoff Valve
„
This valve is used to temporarily shut off air supply to the SVX.
„
The shutoff valve enables disconnection of the SVX from the control valve for ease of
maintenance.
Recommended piping practices
„
Air supply pipes should have an inside diameter of 6 mm {1/4 inch} (8 mm {3/8 inch}
outside diameter tubing recommended).
„
Pipes should match the installation environment, i.e. for a corrosive environment, use
vinyl-covered copper pipes.
„
Use joints that precisely fit the pipes.
„
Sealing tape is preferable to solid or liquid sealants for pipe joints to SVX air connections.
Prevent sealing tape/sealant from entering pipes.
„
Use the right length of piping; avoid excess lengths.
„
Completely flash pipes before use, checking for burrs and other problems.
„
Check for leaks after installation.
