  • Pressure Drops: Consider potential drops due to power outages.
Design Considerations:
  • Maximum Stroke Limits: Operate within limits to prevent damage.
  • Intermediate Stops: Achieving precise stops can be challenging.
  • Emergency Stops: Design systems to prevent injury or damage.
Specifications and Procedures:
  • Operate the piston within a safe range to avoid collision damage.
  • Use a speed controller to gradually increase cylinder drive speed.
Cautionary Measures:
  • Align rod shaft center with load direction to prevent damage.
  • Avoid interference with external guides and prevent scratches.
  • Apply grease to prevent seizure of rotating parts.
Mounting and Maintenance:
  • Verify proper operation post-installation with inspections.
  • Follow the instruction manual for procedures.
  • Clean pipes before piping and ensure proper wrapping of pipe tape.
Air Supply and Environment:
  • Install air filters and maintain clean air supply.
  • Use within specified temperature ranges and prevent freezing.
  • Avoid corrosive environments and protect from dust and splashes.
Lubrication:
  • Non-lube type cylinders are factory lubricated.
  • If additional lubrication is applied, it must be continued.
Auto Switch Precautions:
  • Confirm specifications and avoid using outside specified range.
  • Maintain a minimum separation of 40 mm between cylinders.
  • Ensure proper wiring insulation and avoid wiring with power lines.
  • Use appropriate screws for mounting switches.
Operating Environment:
  • Avoid explosive gas atmospheres.
  • Prevent accumulation of iron debris and avoid magnetic substances.
