AIR TREATMENTFiltering The temperature affects the capacity of air to maintain water particles (relative humidity). Warm air contains a larger quantity of water than the same volume filled with cold air. An excess of humidity causes the formation of condensate. Cooling of the air modifies the structure of the water it contains, by turning it from a gaseous to a liquid state. Specific apparatus can be used to cool (refrigerator) and heat (drier) the air and are, as a rule, assembled on the outlet of the compressor.The filtering elements mounted inside the filters for compressed air, are only partly able to separate the condensate from the air, in fact, their main function is to eliminate any solid particles. During the production of compressed air, compressors can introduce oil into the distribution network. The characteristics of this oil are not compatible with the seals of pneumatic components and with the market trend towards miniaturized products imposes the requirement to use coalescing filters. It is advisable to provide for automatic drains on the filters. Lubrication This is not necessary as the components are already greased with special products. Only use oils with a viscosity of 32 cSt at 40°C. The oil quantity has to be a maximum of 1 drop per minute, this regulation has to be made with the machine in normal operation. The lubrication, once applied, must never be interrupted. If not, the seals of the components could degenerate, compromising their function. For a correct use of our products, refer to the values shown in the table of the Air Quality classes according to the Standard DIN ISO 8573-1.
PNEUMATIC CYLINDERSThe choice of the correct cylinder mounting to the structure and also that of the rod attachment to any moving parts, are as important as the control of parameters relating to speed, mass and radial loads. The control of these parameters has to be guaranteed by the user. The location of position sensors (reed switches), and their switching response times to magnetic fields, is dependant upon the type and bore size of cylinder and the appropriate precautions need to be taken when fixing these items. (see notes on the pages relative to the sensors).We do not advise the use of a cylinder application as a shock absorber or as pneumatic cushioning. If used at the maximum speed, we recommend gradual deceleration to avoid a violent impact between piston and the cylinder end cover. As a general value, we calculate a maximum average speed of 1 m/sec. In this case no lubrication is required as the lubrication introduced during assembly is sufficient to guarantee good operation. If faster speeds are required, we suggest lubrication in the quantities described above. |
