NEVER install a low pressure O-ring assembly (11 in
Figure 14) on a high pressure oil piston-cylinder module. High
pressure piston-cylinder modules are PC-7300-1, -2 and -5. The
low pressure O-ring assembly has a single diameter and is
shorter than a high pressure O-ring assembly. Operating a high
pressure oil piston-cylinder module with a low pressure O-ring
assembly installed could cause excessive force and damage
the module.

The orientation of the piston on the cylinder is
important. The end of the cylinder that is marked with the
serial number should go into the sleeve and/or main module
housing first. The piston enters the end of the cylinder that
is marked with the serial number. Installing the cylinder with
the wrong orientation may lead to out of tolerance
measurements.

FILLING OR EMPTYING GAS OPERATED, LIQUID LUBRICATED
PISTON-CYLINDER MODULE RESERVOIR WITH LIQUID
PURPOSE
To fill or empty the reservoir that holds the liquid used to lubricate the piston-cylinder gap in
PC-7200 piston-cylinder modules.
PRINCIPLE
PC-7200 gas operated, liquid lubricated piston-cylinder modules include a reservoir, which
holds the liquid used to lubricate the gap between the piston and the cylinder
(see Figure 3.1.1). If this reservoir is allowed to go empty, the piston-cylinder module will not
operate properly. Symptoms of lack of lubricating liquid are poor piston sensitivity, excessive
piston drop rate and/or excessive rotation decay rate.
To avoid running out of lubricating liquid, it is recommended that the piston-cylinder module
liquid reservoir be refilled approximately once a week when the module is being used
extensively or if the module has not been used for an extended period of time.
The reservoir may also be emptied for shipping or disassembly.
OPERATION
To fill the reservoir of a PC-7200 gas operated, liquid lubricated piston-cylinder module,
proceed as follows (see Figure 5.3.3). To empty the reservoir, uses steps and only.
Place the piston-cylinder module horizontally with one of the liquid fill holes facing up.
Some liquid may come out of the hole. This indicates that the reservoir is not empty.
Use a syringe supplied with the piston-cylinder module. Empty the syringe and insert it
snugly into the fill hole. Draw back the syringe plunger and withdraw the remaining liquid
from the reservoir until air begins to enter the syringe.
Dispose of the contents of the syringe and wipe off any liquid residue in the bottom of the
module and around the fill hole.
Fill the syringe with 8 cc of fresh liquid. With the piston-cylinder module still in the
horizontal position, inject the full 8 cc of liquid into the fill hole. Be sure to use the correct
fluid for the piston-cylinder module (PC-7200-100, -200 and use Synturion 6; PC-7200-500,
-1 and -2 use Sebacate, see Section 1.2.2.2).
Simultaneously, remove the syringe and hold the module in the vertical position. Let any
liquids run off and wipe off the inside bottom of the module, if necessary, with a lint free wipe.
The module is ready to be reinstalled in the PG7202 Platform (see Section 2.3.2).
