Mounting and start-up
Vent plug
Vent plugs are screwed into the exhaust air
ports of pneumatic and electropneumatic de-
vices. They ensure that any exhaust air that
forms can be vented to the atmosphere (to
avoid excess pressure in the device). Further-
more, the vent plugs allow air intake to pre-
vent a vacuum from forming in the device.
Î
Locate the vent plug on the opposite side
to the workplace of operating personnel.
Î
On mounting valve accessories, make
sure that they can be operated from the
workplace of the operating personnel.
Note:
The workplace of operating person-
nel is the location from which the
valve, actuator and any mounted
valve accessories can be accessed to
operate them.
