Installation and Setup (Continued)

PNEUMATICCONNECTION

Important: Use care when working with compressed air.

The case sealer requires a 5.2 bar gauge pressure 110 liter/min [75 PSIG], @ 21°C, 1.01 bar [3.75 SCFM] compressed air supply. As shown in Figure 3-1, an on/off valve, pressure regulator, and filter are provided to service the air supply.

Note: A precision regulator is used to balance the top drive assembly. Due to the self- relieving feature of this regulator, a small amount of air continually vents to the atmo- sphere. This is normal and amounts to approximately 3 liter/min. [0.1 SCFM].

1.Read and remove safety tag from pneumatic "On/Off"valve.

2.Connect the main air supply line to the inlet side of the On/Off valve using the barbed fitting and hose clamp provided. The customer supplied air hose

(8 mm [5/16 inches] Inner Diameter) must be clamped tightly to the barbed fitting.

If another type of connector is desired, the barbed fitting can be removed and replaced with the desired 1/4-18 NPT threaded connector.

Always turn the air valve Off when the air supply line is being connected or disconnected.

3.Turn the air supply on by turning the air On/Off valve to On.

Note – The air valve has provisions for lock out/tag out according to plant regulations.

WARNING

To reduce the risk associated with impact hazards:

Always use appropriate supporting means when working under the upper drive assembly

4.Raise the upper drive assembly to full Up position by turning the drive assembly raising switch clockwise.
