Piping
①
Use self-align fitting in conjunction with the piping for the rotary actuator of the air-hydro
type.
Do not use a one-touch fitting with the piping for the rotary actuator of the air-hydro type, as this may
result in oil leakage.
②
For rotary actuator of the air-hydro type piping, use hard nylon tubing or copper piping.
As in the case of hydraulic circuits, surge pressures greater than the operating pressure may occur in
a rotary actuator of the air-hydro type
’s piping, making it necessary to use safer piping materials.
・
Lubrication
①
Make sure to completely discharge the compressed air in the system before filling the
air-hydro unit with hydraulic oil.
When supplying hydraulic fluid to the air-hydro unit, first confirm that safety measures are
implemented to prevent dropping of objects and the release of clamped objects, etc. Then, shut off the
air supply and the equipment
’s electric power and exhaust the compressed air in the system.
If the air-hydro unit
’s supply port is opened with compressed air still remaining in the system, there is
a danger of hydraulic fluid being blown out.
・
Maintenance
①
Bleed air from the rotary actuator of the air-hydro type on a regular basis.
Since air may accumulate inside a rotary actuator of the air-hydro type, bleed air from it, for example
before starting work. Bleed air from a bleeder valve provided on the rotary actuator of the air-hydro
type or the piping.
②
Verify the oil level of the air-hydro system on a regular basis.
Since a very small amount of hydraulic fluid is discharged from the rotary actuator of the air-hydro
type and air-hydro unit circuit, the fluid will gradually decrease. Therefore, check the fluid regularly
and refill as necessary.
The oil level can be checked with a level gauge in the air-hydro converter.
