Trouble
Major causes
Countermeasures
Piston speed is
too slow.
1. Too small
directional
control valve.
- Use a valve of a larger size.
2. Too large
resistance of
equipment used
on the way of
piping
- Use valves and equipment of an appropriate size
- In particular, attention should be paid to the piping
and fittings because they are often missed.
Equipment and piping at the exhaust side should
also be of an appropriate size.
The product
sometimes does
not operate.
1. Operation at a
very low speed
-
Operation at a very low speed can create a
condition with almost no pressure difference
between the supply side and exhaust side and
lower sealing effect, which can cause operation
failure. Keep the specified speed for operation.
2. Problem of
equipment other
than this product
- Check all items in the system one by one to find
the cause.
The product has
become unable to
operate.
1. Damage of piston
seal
- Check that the exhaust port of the valve is
exhausting all the time. - Replace the cylinder with
a new one.
2. Problem of
equipment other
than this product
- Check all items in the system one by one to find
the cause.
3. Insufficient
pressure
- Supply appropriate pressure.
The piston rod
has been
deformed and
broken.
1. Operation at high
speed
- Operation at a high speed can cause impact, and
deform and damage the product. Keep within the
specified piston speed range.
2. Excessive
external force
- It may cause damage and deformation of the
cylinder if the mechanism interferes or eccentric
load or over load is applied to it. Remove these
factors.
Piston speed
cannot be
adjusted with the
speed controller.
1. Incorrect speed
controller
selection
- Use a speed controller of a suitable size for the
required speed.
2. Problem of the
speed controller.
- Replace the speed controller with a new one.
