Preparing the Compressed-air Source
WARNING
The pressure of the compressed air must be not more than 1 MPa.
Exceeding this may cause rupture or other serious accident.

Ensure no contamination of the supplied compressed air by any water, oils,
chemicals, or foreign objects.
Components may deteriorate or rupture, or the contaminants may be scattered,
posing a hazard.
This unit requires compressed air. Provide a compressor or other source that meets the following conditions.
Air pressure:
0.7 to 1.0 MPa
Amount of air: 50 L/min
Contamination by moisture, oils, chemicals, or other foreign matter is not permitted. The air must be
dry.
Attach the piping from the unit as described below. Use a suitable air hose.
Hose outer diameter: 10 mm (polyurethane tube)
About the Compressor
