SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 Mounting & Connection
The TS9800 Series Jet Valve should be used on an automated XYZ table. It
is very important that the valve is mounted on the Z-axis gantry, in a secure
manner, that will not allow loosening during dispense operation.
Mount the valve to the XYZ table bracket through the two tap holes (M4).
To prevent rusting condition, it is recommended that the bracket should be
made of stainless steel or galvanized steel or non-ferrous metals. The
screwing depth is about 6 mm.
The
connection of the
TS9800 Jet Valve
to the
TS980 Controller
is
done via the 3-pin plug and the 6-pin plug on the top of the valve. The
plugs are protected against mix-up by having different number of pins.
After connecting, the plug must be locked in place by turning the locking
nut on the cable’s mating connector a quarter of a turn in clockwise
direction.
The 3-pin cable supplies the power for the piezo stack from 0 VDC to
100 VDC (bipolar operation). The 6-pin cable transfers the data of the
integrated sensor inside the valve. Disconnection is done by first rotating
the locking nut on the cable’s mating connector a quarter of a turn in
counter-clockwise direction, then gently pull the connector axially
backwards
Caution
: Never disconnect the cables from the valve while
the system is still dispensing, this will lead to the damage of the valve
and the control unit. If the system is not operating, you can disconnect
the valve and the control unit.
