5.3.1 Supply lines
The clamping force block has four air connections:
I, II, III, IV
.
Two connections for OPEN (
I
and
III
) and two connections for
CLOSE (
II
and
IV
).
The application determines which of the two air connections must
be opened for actuation:
• Connections
I
and
II
for operation without a base plate.
• Connections
III
and
IV
in the base for hose-free direct
connection to the machine table or on the base plate.
The threads for hose-free, direct connection are not designed for
pneumatic fittings.
Thread for pneumatic fitting (front):

NOTE:
All four air connections come sealed on delivery of the clamping
force block. On the base side with set-screws (item 60) and on the
front with locking screws (item 23).
When using the air purge via connection 5, the two sound
absorbers (V) must be removed and replaced by set-screws (item
93).
Requirements for compressed air supply: compressed air,
compressed air quality according to ISO 8573-1: 7:4:4
Unconditioned compressed air contains dust and oil particles and
moisture, all of which can lead to malfunctions or premature wear
in the clamping force block. The oiler should be no more than 2
meters from the coupling point.
The clamping force block has two more base connections (
6/7
) for
direct lubrication through the machine table. These connections
come sealed on delivery with set-screws (item 62).
