3 Installation
3.1 Installation
Warning
•
Do not install the product unless the safety instructions have been read
and understood.
•
Do not twist or bend the cylinder, or mount the product when subject
to tension.
•
Do not use in an application where the product is stopped mid-stroke,
via an external stop.
•
Do not use where cylinders are being synchronised to move a single
load.
•
The product can be mounted in one of the following orientations.
Axial Mounting
(Body Tapped)
Vertical Mounting
(Body Through-hole)
Lateral Mounting
(Body Through-hole)
•
When mounting the product use the hexagon socket head cap screw
and tightening torque defined below;
Bore [mm]
Screw Dia.
Tightening Torque
Ø 25
M5
5.10 ± 10%
3.2 Environment
Warning
•
Do not use in an environment where corrosive gases, chemicals, salt
water or steam are present.
•
Do not use in an explosive atmosphere.
3 Installation - continued
•
Do not expose to direct sunlight. Use a suitable protective cover.
•
Do not install in a location subject to vibration or impact in excess of
the product’s specifications.
•
Do not mount in a location exposed to radiant heat that would result in
temper
atures in excess of the product’s specifications.
•
Do not install in a location subject to vibration or impact in excess of
the product’s specifications.
•
Do not use in a place subject to heavy vibration and/or shock.
•
Do not use in wet environments, where water can remove the presence
of the lubrication.
•
Do not use in case of heavy dusty environments where dust can
penetrate into the cylinder and dry the grease.
•
Do not allow dust layers to build up on the cylinder surface and insulate
the product.
3.3 Piping
Caution
•
Before connecting piping make sure to clean up chips, cutting oil, dust
etc.
•
When installing piping or fittings, ensure sealant material does not
enter inside the port. When using seal tape, leave 1 thread
exposed
on the end of the pipe/fitting.
•
Tighten fittings to the specified tightening torque.

3.4 Lubrication
Caution
•
SMC products have been lubricated for life at manufacture, and do not
require lubrication in service.
•
If a lubricant is used in the system, refer to catalogue for details.
3.5 Basic Circuit
•
Plugging one of the ports on the actuator is considered a non-intended
use, and could relate to an increase in maximum surface temperature
above what the product specification declares.
3.6 Electrical Connection
•
The product should be grounded by the piston rod and the body in
order to create an electrically conductive path to the system/application.
•
Ground the product in accordance with applicable regulations.
•
Do not pass an electrical current through the product.
4 Settings
Refer to the standard product operation manual for settings.
5 How to Order
Refer to customer drawing
for ‘How to Order’.

Refer to
customer drawing
for outline dimensions.
7 Maintenance
7.1 General maintenance
Caution
•
Not following proper maintenance procedures could cause the product
to malfunction and lead to equipment damage.
•
If handled improperly, compressed air can be dangerous.
•
Maintenance of pneumatic systems should be performed only by
qualified personnel.
•
Before performing maintenance, turn off the power supply and be sure
to cut off the supply pressure. Confirm that the air is released to
atmosphere.
•
After installation and maintenance, apply operating pressure and
power to the equipment and perform appropriate functional and
leakage tests to make sure the equipment is installed correctly.
•
If any electrical connections are disturbed during maintenance, ensure
they are reconnected correctly and safety checks are carried out as
required to ensure continued compliance with applicable national
regulations.
•
Do not make any modification to the product.
•
Do not disassemble the product, unless required by installation or
maintenance instructions.
•
Do not use a product which looks or contains damage, this will
invalidate the certification. If damage is seen, please replace the
product immediately.
•
Periodically check the product for any damage or rust appearing. This
could result in an increase in friction and lead to dangerous conditions.
Replace the whole actuator if any of these conditions appear.
•
Periodically check the condition of the rod seal and for the presence of
lubrication, where possible. If these areas appear to be dry, please
follow the lubrication procedure.
•
The seals should be replaced when the air leakage is above the
allowable value given in the table below;
Allowable Leakage
Internal Leakage
10 cm
3
/ min (ANR)
External Leakage
5 cm
3
/ min (ANR)
7.2 Disassembly Procedure
•
Disassemble the cylinder, remove the old grease and place all the
parts on a clean cloth in a clean environment. Use a set of snap ring
pliers to remove the retaining ring (7) and then remove the head cover
(2). Remove the old piston seal (12), rod seal (13) and gasket (14),
using a fine screwdriver where necessary.
