Operating
Manual
For proper tool performance, the incoming compressed air requirements to the BAND-IT Air
Controller Module of the 3/8” BAND-IT Pneumatic IT Tool must be:
Item
Min
Max
Inlet Supply Pressure in PSI (kPa)
100 (690)
150 (1,034)
Inlet Supply Air Flow in SCFM (L/min)
1.5 (0.71)
Filtered air particle size (microns)
(5)
Air Moisture Content
20% RH
Although cylinders are permanently lubricated,
premature wear can be caused by
contaminants in the air supply or the presence of water and oil
. The tool’s internal
valves can also be affected by contaminants in the air lines causing a valve malfunction.
The BAND-IT Air Controller Module includes a filter to meet particle requirements.
BAND-IT recommends the use of an Air Booster System to address the potential problems
associated with low air supply, including:
•filters and dries the air supply
•assures pressure of 100 PSI (690 kPa)
