9. Transport, stporage, intermediate storage
Only transport the clamping elements in their relaxed state
The clamping elements should be placed in storage or interim storage in the preserved
state and in the packaging selected by HEMA.
Only store and transport the clamping elements with the supplied transport lock.
10. Type designation
The engraved type designation and serial number serve to clearly identify and track the
clamping element. It is unique for every clamping element and therefore absolutely
essential for tracking and chasing purposes. So never obliterate the engraving; the
engraving must be legible at all times. Removing or obliterating the type designation
renders all warranty claims void. The engraving describes the type and size.
The engraving can be found on the intermediate panel under the air and sensor
connections on the PClamp N and ISO type clamps; the engraving can be found on the
front next to the air connection on E type clamps.
11. Installation notes
Check that the type designation engraved on the PClamp agrees with the PClamp you want
to install
PClamps cannot be fitted if they are not pressurised as they can only be opened under
pressure.
Make sure that all contact surfaces between the PClamp and installation surface on the
connecting structures are clean and plane.
Handle the PClamp so that it cannot sustain damage. This will reduce the operating
safety and render the warranty void.
Make sure that the installation is free of torsion and that the permissible loads set out
in in the terms of delivery and the operating instructions are fulfilled.
The PClamp automatically centres itself on the round rod. This requires that the round
rod's positioning is sufficiently precise and stiff.
Screws of Property Class 8.8 or higher must be used to secure the PClamps. Tighten
the screws with the recommended tightening torque. Use a screw locking product,
e. g. Loctite. Recommended tightening torques:
PClamp N and ISO Size 63: 8 Nm
Size 80: 15 Nm
Size 125: 35 Nm
PClamp E
Size 63: 3 Nm
Size 80: 6 Nm
Size 125: 12 Nm
