Install device
WARNING!
Overloading of the casters or rolling away of the device
Impact, crushing
Position the device on an even, non-slip surface with a
sufficient load carrying capacity.
Actuate the caster brake when setting up the device.
Do not place heavy parts on the device.
Recommendation for installation of the devices:
n
The site must be level and insensitive to moisture.
n
Do not cover the ventilation openings of the flow controller.
n
If the local conditions require a different installation, the following cri-
teria must be taken into account:
Long hoses between the flow controller and the application have a
higher flow resistance. As a result, the target flow rate may not be
achieved.
Long hoses could promote temperature changes.
The site must be checked to ensure that it complies with the
ambient conditions.
n
The flow controller should be placed as close as possible to the appli-
cation. This minimizes dead time, which has an unfavorable effect on
control quality.
n
If necessary, an extension cord must be used for the LiBus connection
(EKS 068 extension cord LiBus 5 m gray).
1.
Position the flow controller between the constant temperature equip-
ment and the application. Position the constant temperature equip-
ment to the left of the flow controller, and the application to the right
of the flow controller.
This arrangement allows the temperature control hoses to be kept
as short as possible.
2.
Engage the locking brakes of the front casters.
4.2 Connect the hoses and LiBus cable
CAUTION!
Bursting of the hose and leaking of heat transfer liquid.
Scalding, frostbite, slipping hazard
The temperature, pressure and media resistance of the
hoses must be suitable for the respective application.
