Air connection adaptors
Two adaptors are available to turn the direction of the air supply whilst keeping the air line design compact. The adaptors should always be used in conjunction with the standard air connection fitting, which includes a choke
to maintain smooth air flow.
The 180 degree air turn assembly (A-9768-4416) is typically used with FORTiS-N encoders when the air supply comes from the opposite end to the connection point on the readhead.
The universal elbow (A-9768-4391) turns the air supply through 90 degrees and can be used with either FORTiS-S or FORTiS-N. This can be fitted to either the readhead or the extrusion.
NOTE:
The air purge connection can be made to either the readhead or the extrusion; it does not need to be applied to both.
