6. INSTALLATION
6.1 UNPACKING
Once a suitable location has been identified for the installation, open the package and remove the
equipment. Check that the VIP4Tools
Pro
has not sustained damage during transport and storage.
The packaging material does not require any special disposal precautions, not being in any way
dangerous or polluting.
6.2 MOUNTING THE VIP4Tools PANEL
Provide adequate space for the installation, leaving a minimum room of 100 mm around the panel. Mount
the VIP4Tools
Pro
panel at shoulder height to avoid unnatural posture or the possibility of sustaining
impacts. Do not install the VIP4Tools
Pro
in particularly aggressive or explosive/flammable environments
or on components subject to vibration.
Only use the supplied mounting bracket with N° 2 holes for Ø 6 mm (0.23 in.) bolts.
6.3 MOUNTING THE MINI-PUMPS ON THE MIXER BASES
(for replacement or augmenting)
The mini-pumps are mounted on the mixer bases utilizing two securing screws.
Particular attention should be paid to the correct positioning of the o-rings between the mini-pump and the
mixer base (see diagram below).
6.4 HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS
The only connection to be undertaken is that of the individual pumps, provided with push-in connections,
to the lubrication point. The piping can be either co-axial with 6mm external and 3mm internal tubing, or
straight 4mm tube. (obtainable from Dropsa).
6.5 PNEUMATIC CONNECTIONS
Connect the air input to the push-in connector utilizing Ø 8mm nylon tubing both for the pump and the
mixer, and provide a stop valve to permit shutting off the supply.
