General Notes on Installing
NOTICE
Destruction of the piezo actuator due to rapid discharging!
If the P-2x5 is not connected to the electronics, the lines on the voltage connection must be
short-circuited in order to prevent the piezo actuator from charging during temperature
changes and compressive stresses. Unsuitable short-circuiting leads to an abrupt contraction of
the piezo actuator due to excessively fast discharging. Abrupt contraction can destroy the
piezo actuator.
Remove the supplied shorting plug from the voltage connection of the piezo actuator only
when this is necessary for installation or operation.
Keep the shorting plug near the piezo actuator after removing it.
When the shorting plug has been removed, proceed as follows:
1.
Discharge the piezo actuator (p. 34).
2.
Connect the shorting plug provided to the voltage connector of the discharged piezo
actuator. Do not short-circuit the piezo actuator in any other way.
NOTICE
Destruction of the piezo actuator due to excessive loads!
Excessive loads can destroy the P-2x5.
Do
not
exceed the maximum push/pull capacity according to the specifications (p. 41).
