Foreword to the Operating Instructions The purpose of these Operating Instructions is to assist you in familiarising yourself with the OSP-P and to make use of the functions it has been designed for. The following instruction describes various types of actuators. They are marked with the following pictograms...
Please inform us immediately of any recurring malfunctions or problems with the OSP-P / OSPP-BG. Safety 2.1 Authorized Use The operating safety of the OSP-P / OSPP-BG (called “Linear Drive”) is only guaranteed if it is used in au- thorized applications. Authorized applications of the Linear Drive are: •...
Linear Drive. This identification plate shall not be removed or destroyed in any way. A liability of Messrs Parker Hannifin GmbH – irrespective of the legal reason – exists only in the event of intentional or gross negligence, culpable injury to life, body, health, in the event of deficiencies with malicious intent of deception or faults the absence of which has been expressly guaranteed.
Information Transport damage and missing parts are to be reported immediately and in packed writing to the transport company or to Parker Hannifin GmbH or to the delivery company. Storage Where storage or interim storage is involved, you must observe the following: •...
Design and Function 6.2.1 Design Features OSP-P, Linear Drive Ø10 • The OSP-P is a pneumatic cylinder without piston rod. • The longitudinal slot in the cylinder is sealed and protected by stainless steel bands. • The piston consists of piston yoke, support rings, sealing bands, piston seals, bearing strips and mag- nets on the inside.

The longitudinal slot in the cylinder is sealed and protected by stainless steel bands. • The difference between the clean room cylinder OSP-P and the rodless standard linear drive OSP-P is that a vacuum is created between the internal and the external steel band.
• forces and loads • speeds and cushioning energy • weights and additional data see catalogue OSP-P. Operating pressure range: = 8 bar. Compressed air requirements: Free of water and dirt. Additional lubrication with oil mist is not necessary.

Position the working load so that the bending moments on the carrier are below the values shown in the OSP-P cataloque. • For long cylinders, use mid-section supports from our OSP-P cataloque. OSP-P only: • Avoid forces exerted by loads carried on external linear guides.
Magnetic switches, offered in our catalogue, allow contactless position sensing of the linear drives in their intermediate and end positions. For further information refer to the OSP-P catalogue. T-Slot Magnetic Switches P8S Profilrohr Basic Guide 25 Profilrohr Basic Guide 32...
Unscrew both needle valves about one half turn (not Ø 10). • In the case of clean room cylinders OSP-P switch on suction device before venting the cylinder. • Slowly pressurise both cylinder chambers in order to prevent uncontrolled, dangerous movements (soft start valve, accessories in our catalogue), the piston stops after a short movement.
Continue as for individual linear drives (chap. 10 on page 14). Removal from plant Crushing hazard and danger of eye injuries. Be extremely careful when removing OSP-P from the plant. Observe chapter „2 Safety“ on page 4 and the local safety regulation. Possible hazards are: •...
Dismantle the required parts in order to be able to freely move the piston / guide carriage. If necessary, completely remove the linear drive. • Switch off the main switch and secure it against unintentional switching-on. 12.1 Maintenance intervals Information only for OSP-P (Standard) and OSPP-BG km operated Maintenance Instructions OSP-P Dismantle linear drive completely if necessary, clean parts see chap.
Procedure: • Depressurise cylinder / plant. • Remove load. 13.2 Dismantle OSP-P Ø 10 Check the position of the parts as shown on the exploded view drawing chap. 17.1 on page 35. Dismantle the endcap • Remove two locking screws (13) for outer band, (11) on both ends.
Modular Pneumatic Linear Drive System OSP -P / OSPP-BG 13.3 Dismantle OSP-P Ø 16 up to Ø 80 Check the position of the parts on the exploded view drawing chap. 17.2 on page 35. 13.3.1 Remove end cap • Remove screws (36) and end caps (35) and remove end caps (35) on both sides.
13.4 Dismantle OSPP-BG (Basic Guide) Check the position of the parts on the exploded view drawing chap. 17.3 on page 36. 13.4.1 Replacement of the slide profiles only Dismantle Guide Carriage • Move guide carriage (56) to middle position. • Remove the screws (52) from the wiper covers (50, 51).

Trouble shooting Faulty OSP-P clean room cylinders must be returned to the manufacturer! 14.1 List of faults For instructions please refer to chapters: Standard Clean Room Basic Guide Fault description Possible cause Remedy Cylinder leaks somewhere 14.2 on 14.3 on along the inner sealing Inner sealing band (17) dirty.
Modular Pneumatic Linear Drive System OSP -P / OSPP-BG 14.2 Cleaning the Inner Sealing Band OSP-P (not Clean Room Cylinder) Dirt particles can lodge between the inner sealing band and the cylinder bore and cause leakage. Cleaning is then required.
14.3 Cleaning the Inner Sealing Band OSPP-BG Dirt particles can lodge between the inner sealing band and the cylinder bore and cause leakage. Cleaning is then required. Warning! Danger of eye injury ! Wear safety glasses where indicated! • There is danger of eye injury from flying dirt particles. Danger of cuts on fingers etc.
DIN EN 983, Veiligheidstechnische eisen ten aanzien van vloeistoftechnische installaties en componenten. Een Technische Documentatie is volledig beschikbaar. Het is verboden, de OSP-P in gebruik te nehmen totdat is vastgesteld, dat de machine/installatie, waarin de lineaire aandrijvingen ingebouwd moeten worden, voldoet aan de bepalingen van de EG-Machinerichtlijn.
