Bases with their main equipment and functions.
• Base alone (
A
)
This base has no additional function. It is always used as slave of the master base positioned upstream.
• Base with a pneumatic pulse generator (
B
) The pulse generator adjusts the working frequency of the micropump. A base with an air solenoid valve,
positioned upstream, controls the air inlet, which actuates the micropump.
• Base with an air solenoid valve (
C
)
The air solenoid valve controls the micropump. The micropump working frequency is adjusted by the
solenoid valve, which is controlled by a control unit.
• Base with a pneumatic pulse generator
and an air solenoid valve (
D
)
The air solenoid valve controls the micropump and the pulse generator adjusts the working frequency of the
micropump.
• Base with only a flow sensor GS304P (
E
) The flow sensor GS304P monitors the lubricant outflow of the micropump. This base has no other additional
function. It is always used as slave of the master base positioned upstream.
• Base with a flow sensor GS304P and a
pneumatic pulse generator (
F
)
The flow sensor GS304P monitors the lubricant outflow of the micropump. The pulse generator adjusts the
working frequency of the micropump. A base with an air solenoid valve, positioned upstream, controls the air
inlet, which actuates the micropump.
• Base with a flow sensor GS304P and an
air solenoid valve (
G
)
The flow sensor GS304P monitors the lubricant outflow of the micropump. The air solenoid valve controls
the micropump. The micropump working frequency is adjusted by the solenoid valve, which is controlled by a
control unit.
• Base with a flow sensor GS304P, a
pneumatic pulse generator and an air
solenoid valve (
H
)
The flow sensor GS304P monitors the lubricant outflow of the micropump. The air solenoid valve controls
the micropump and the pulse generator adjusts the working frequency of the micropump.
• Base with a general air solenoid valve (
I
)
The general air solenoid valve controls the air inlet for the pneumatic micropumps as well as the carrier air
inlet. This base is always master of the other bases which are placed downstream.
• Base alone (
J
)
This base has no additional function. This base has no additional function. It is always slave of a base with a
solenoid valve for general air (I).
• Base with only a flow sensor GS304P (
K
) The flow sensor GS304P monitors the lubricant outflow of the micropump. This base has no other additional
function. This base has no additional function. It is always slave of a base with a solenoid valve for general air
(I).
