Compressed air settings
The Blow-on applicator should be operated with an air pressure of 5-6 bars.
Air pressure valve
There is only one large 5/3 air pressure valve located at the back side of the
applicator base plate (see [Fig. 19]). The valve has 2 electrical coils and there-
fore 3 positions. If both coils are not activated, the LA-BO is in a stand-by status
and no air pressure is used. If the upper coil is activated, the valve switches the
air flow to blow off the label from the vacuum grid. If the lower coil is activated,
the valve switches the airflow to the blow pipe which functions as a support air-
stream to guide the label against the vacuum grid during dispensing of the
label.
[Fig. 19]
The pressure valve is located on the back side of the base plate.
CAUTION
The applied compressed air must match the following conditions to assure
proper operation of the applicator:
«
The maximum air pressure must not exceed 6 bar! A higher pressure can
damage the device.
«
The air pressure must be kept constant to ensure the correct operation of the
applicator.
