Air Control and Filter

Air is used on the MH3D for air bearing operation and for the Z-rail counterbal-
ance.  The system is designed to operate at 3.75 BAR (55+0/-1 PSI).  The inlet air
supply should be 4,8 - 8,3 BAR (70 - 120 PSI) and should provide for a  mini-
mum consumption of 21L/min (.74 CFM).

The supply line is connected to the input port.  The air passes through a primary
filter and a secondary filter.  A regulator connected after the filters is used to set
system pressure.  When the pressure is set, the pressure adjusting knob should be
locked with the friction lock knob located at the bottom of the regulator.

The filter-regulator unit is normally mounted at the side of the support bench.  A
bracket is supplied for mounting and can be attached to a customer supplied
bench.  

The filter-regulator must be mounted vertically as shown.  Failure to

do this will cause the unit to malfunction and void the machine warranty.

A second regulator controls the air pressure in the counterbalance cylinder.  This
regulator is mounted on the right side of the rear cover of the ZX cariage and is
adjusted to compensate for varying probe weights.

Always hold the Z-rail firmly when unlocking the Z-axis and adjusting the
counterbalance.  

The knob must be rotated clockwise to increase the lift for

heavier probes and counterclockwise to decrease the lift.

If the counterbalance is adjusted with the axis lock 'on', the safety brake may be
triggered because the air pressure is set too low.  If this occurs, unlock the axis
and turn the pressure up until the counterbalance unlocks.  Hold the Z-rail firmly
as it may move suddenly when the brake unlocks.

On the MH3D machine the air switches are used both as axis locks and also to
engage and release the fine adjust mechanism.  The fine adjust mechanisms are
used for precisely adjusting the machine's three axes.
