Section 3.3.2 Counterbalance Air Valve System Mounting

The mounting location of the valve system is not critical. Consideration should be given, however, to ease of maintenance, plumbing, and wiring when choosing the mounting location. Also note that sometimes the check valve in the original system may be up at the surge tank itself. The check valve in the original system must be removed for the automatic system to work properly.

Section 3.3.3 Counterbalance System Wiring

Refer to Appendix B, Figure B.1, for typical wiring of the counterbalance valve and pressure transducer. Note that the auto-select connection is used only for a type “C” valve. For type “A” valves, the auto- select connection from pin 2 of the counterbalance module is not required. If you order an OmniLink control with a counterbalance adjust system, then a wiring diagram will be provided as part of the documentation package.

Section 3.4 Cushion System Installation

The typical manually adjustable press cushion system looks something like Figure 3.9.

Figure 3.9: Typical Standard Cushion System

For automatic control, the pressure regulator and check valve are replaced with an air valve system. Figure 3.10 shows a system using a Type “B” valve as described in section 3.2. Type “A” and “C” valves may also be used. A pressure transducer is used to monitor the air pressure.
