PROXIMITY SWITCH The new RLN series Amlok provides for optional proximity switch. WIRING CONNECTIONS PNP normally open PROXIMITY SWITCH SETTING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Set the AMLOK® to the unclamped ‘pressure applied’ position. 2. Screw the proximity switch (with jam nuts) into the designated M 8 x 1 proximity switch hole, until it contacts the position flange. 3. Unscrew (back off) the proximity switch approximately 3/4 turn. While holding the proximity switch in the set position, tighten the locking nut using 15 ft/lbs of torque. Final adjustment may be necessary to achieve desired results. Note:...

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS RLN ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS 1. Read Assembly Instructions and Caution Label on unit. 5. Bolt AMLOK® to cylinder or housing. 2. Connect a flexible hose to the pressure port of the AMLOK®, apply air pressure to release the clamping mechanism and slide the AMLOK® over the rod to be clamped. 6. Pressurize the AMLOK® to the specified release pressure. 3. Align the mounting holes and port hole to the proper location. 4. Release pressure. 7. Release and pressurize several times. With the specified pressure the rod should move freely through the AMLOK®. 8. If the rod does not move...
