Assembly and connection
NOTE:
All four air connections come sealed on delivery of the clamping
force block. On the base side with set-screws (item 60) and on the
front with locking screws (item 23).
• When using the air purge via connection 5, the two sound
absorbers (V) must be removed and replaced by set-screws (item
93).
Requirements for compressed air supply: compressed air,
compressed air quality according to ISO 8573-1: 7:4:4
Unconditioned compressed air contains dust and oil particles and
moisture, all of which can lead to malfunctions or premature wear
in the clamping force block. The oiler should be no more than 2
meters from the coupling point.
The clamping force block has two more base connections (
6/7
) for
direct lubrication through the machine table. These connections
come sealed on delivery with set-screws (item 62).
5.2.2 Dynamic pressure monitoring of the jaw end positions (variant
"PM")
Dynamic pressure monitoring for the jaw end positions is
integrated via connections 1 and 4 on the bottom.
Connection 1 --> monitoring outer end jaw position.
Connection 4 --> monitoring inner end jaw position.
The max. pressure for the monitoring functions is 2 bar.
Limit volumetric flow to 10 l/min.
Pressure difference between stroke end positions min. 1 bar.
