6.4 Operation modes
6.4.1 Continuous operation
Continuous operation represents continuous loading of the product with a certain number of cycles per unit of time.
This results in the product heating up, which yields a certain operating temperature prevailing from the thermal balance
between heat absorption due to damping and heat dissipation to the surroundings.
NOTICE
Malfunction in case of non-compliance
►
When the system is at a standstill, make sure that the product does not remain in the actuated state in order to
ensure that the product can be reset to the starting position with the piston rod extended.
NOTICE
Non-compliance may result in material damage.
►
Ensure sufficient heat dissipation so that the product does not heat up above the permitted maximum
temperature.
6.4.2 Emergency stop operation
INFORMATION
►
Please note that several products can absorb higher energy per stroke in emergency stop operation.
In emergency stop operation, the product is only used in emergencies, e.g. a failure of the machine control system.
Emergency stop operation can cause irregular loading of the product at unpredictable intervals.
6.5 Impact angle
The impact angle results from the angular deviation between the movement of the impacting mass and the piston rod of the
product. In cases with rotational loads, the distance of the product to the instant center plays an important role. In addition,
in case of rotational movements, the position of the swiveling component to be damped can influence the impact angle in
the impact point and in the end position.
INFORMATION
The product is approved for a maximum impact angle, which limits the maximum lateral forces acting upon it.
►
Please note that a side load adapter must be installed if the maximum permitted impact angle is exceeded.
►
For more information, refer to the "Installing the side load adapter (PBV)" section.
