OPERATION
PREOPERATION PROCEDURES
CONNECT HOSES
1.If the RV06 is to be used on or near electrical lines, both of the hoses used to connect the RV06 to the intensifier must be labeled and certified
2.Make certain that all fittings, connectors, and quick couplers used to make connections with the RV06 and the intensifier are rated for 10,000 psi/690 bar.
3.It is a good practice to connect return hoses first and disconnect them last to minimize or avoid trapped pressure within the tool or hoses.
4.Wipe all hoses and couplers with a clean,
5.Connect the hoses on the RV06 to the
6.Observe the marking on the end of the RV06 and the intensifier: P is the pressure inlet port of the RV06 and should be connected to the P (pressure outlet) port of the intensifier. The T (tank or return) port of the RV06 should be connected to the T port of the intensifier.
7.Tighten all connections securely.

The RV06 is ported at both ends with a 1/4 in. female NPT ports. When using Teflon® tape as a sealant be careful not to allow the tape to enter the intensifier, RV06, or tools connected to the RV06. Contamina- tion may disable the intensifier, RV06, or the tool.

Figure 2. Connecting the RV06 to a Double-Acting Tool
A single-acting tool is any tool using hydraulic power for the advance mode and a spring for the retract modes. Single-acting tools use a single connection to the RV06.
Single-acting tools connect to the RV06 in a way similar to double-acting tools. Only the advance port (marked A) of the RV06 is used to connect to the tool. The return port (marked B) is plugged with a 1/4 in. male NPT plug.
