4 Settings and Programming (continued)

 

4.5 One-touch fittings 

Caution

 

When using fittings, check their dimensions in the catalogue to avoid 
possible interference between fittings of different types or sizes. 
The following table shows the fittings which have been confirmed to be 
applicable to the VF series. The fittings selected from this table will not 
interfere with each other.

5 Maintenance 

5.1 General Maintenance 

Caution 

• 

Not following proper maintenance procedures could cause the product 
to malfunction and lead to equipment damage. 

• 

If handled improperly, compressed air can be dangerous. Maintenance 
of pneumatic systems should be performed only by qualified personnel. 

• 

Before performing maintenance, turn off the power supply and be sure 
to cut off the supply pressure. Confirm that the air is released to 
atmosphere. 

• 

After installation and maintenance, apply operating pressure and power 
to the equipment and perform appropriate functional and leakage tests to 
make sure the equipment is installed correctly. 

• 

Do not make any modification to the product. 
Do not disassemble the product, unless required by installation or 
maintenance instructions. 

Warning 

1.Perform maintenance procedures as shown in the instruction 

manual.  

If handled improperly, malfunction and damage of machinery or 
equipment may occur. 

2. Removal of equipment, and supply/exhaust of compressed air 

When components are removed, first confirm that measures are in place 
to prevent workpieces from dropping, run-away equipment, etc. Then, cut 
off the supply pressure and power, and exhaust all compressed air from 
the system using the residual pressure release function. 
When the equipment is operated after remounting or replacement, first 
confirm that measures are in place to prevent lurching of actuators, etc. 
Then, confirm that the equipment is operating normally. 

3. Low frequency operation 

Valves should be operated at least once every 30 days to prevent 
malfunction. (Use caution regarding the air supply.) 

 
 
 
 
 
 

5 Maintenance (Continued)

 

5.2 Supply air 

Warning

 

Use clean air 

Do not use compressed air that contains chemicals, synthetic oils 
including organic solvents, salt or corrosive gases etc., as it can cause 
damage or malfunction. 

 

Caution 

Install an air filter 

Install an air filter upstream near the valve. Select an air filter with a 
filtration of 5 

μ

m or smaller. 

 
 

6 Limitations of Use 

 

Caution

 

• 

Leakage voltage 

The suppressor residual voltage should be 3 % or less of the rated 
voltage.  

• 

Surge voltage suppressor 

  If a surge protection circuit contains non-ordinary diodes such as zener 

diodes or varistor, a residual voltage will remain that is in proportion to 
the protective elements & the rated voltage. Therefore, give 
consideration to surge voltage protection of the controller. In the case of 
diodes, the residual voltage is approximately 1 V. 

• 

Low temperature operation 

 Unless otherwise indicated in the specifications for each valve, operation 

is possible to -10

, but appropriate measures should be taken to avoid 

solidification or freezing of drainage and moisture, etc.  

• 

Mounting orientation 

Mounting orientation is universal.
