Designated use
The SPC11 has been designed for fitting into a machine or an
automated system. In conjunction with permitted drives and
measuring systems as well as with a proportional directional
control valve type MPYE-5-..., the SPC11 enables:
– fast movement into the mechanical end positions and one
or two selectable intermediate positions.
– manual movement between the end positions.
Depending on the drive used, fixed stops may be necessary
in order to protect the drive. The end positions can be set by
means of fixed stops. The end position cushioning, movement
to the intermediate positions and manual positioning are
electronically closed-loop controlled. The SPC11 may only be
used as follows:
– in accordance with designated use
– in its original state
– without any modifications by the user
– in faultless technical condition.
– Only in conjunction with permitted drive/measuring
system combinations.
When used together with commercially available compo-
nents, such as sensors and actuators, the specified limits for
pressures, temperatures, electrical data, torques etc. must be
observed. National and local safety regulations must also be
observed.
