Piping
- Preparation before piping
Before piping, perform air blow (flushing) or cleaning to remove any cutting chips, cutting oil, dust, etc. from the piping.
- Wrapping of pipe tape
When installing piping or a tube fitting into a port, prevent cutting chips and sealant material from getting inside the product.
If a sealant tape is used, leave 1 thread exposed at the end of threads.
- When connecting tubing, consider factors such as changes in the tubing length due to pressure, and allow a sufficient
margin.
Otherwise, it can damage the fitting and cause the tube to come off. Refer to Fittings & Tubing Precautions from 1 to 4 shown
in Best Pneumatics 6 on SMC’s website (URL http://www.smcworld.com) for the recommended piping conditions.
Maintenance
- Turn off the power supply, stop the supplied air, exhaust the residual compressed air in the piping and verify the release of air
before performing maintenance.
There is a risk of unexpected malfunction of component.
- Perform regular maintenance and inspections.
There is a risk of unexpected failure of components due to the malfunction of equipment and machinery.
- Perform draining regularly.
If condensate enters the secondary side, it can cause operating failure of pneumatic equipment.
- Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner etc. to clean the product.
This may damage the surface of the body or erase the markings on the body.
Use a soft cloth to remove stains. For heavy stains, use a cloth soaked with diluted neutral detergent and fully squeezed, then
wipe up the stains again with a dry cloth.
