RSQ/RSQ-Z Safety Instructions Caution 1.The product is provided for use in manufacturing industries. The product herein described is basically provided for peaceful use in manufacturing industries. If considering using the product in other industries, consult SMC beforehand and exchange specifications or a contract if necessary.
*1. Specifications 1-1. Cylinder specifications Double acting, double acting with spring, and single Action acting (spring extended). Fluid Proof pressure 1.5MPa Max. Operating pressure 1.0Mpa Without auto switch Ambient and operating fluid : -10 C to 70 temperature with auto switch: -10 C to 60 Lubrication Not required (non-lube)
6. Selection 6-1 Selection Select the appropriate cylinder based on mass of transferred object and transfer speed (Fig.1). Example 1: For roller type with transfer speed of 15m/min. and the mass of transferred object of 30kg. Find the intersection if the speed if 15m/min. on the horizontal axis and the mass of 30kg on the vertical axis in graph, and select RSQ□40-□□RZ that falls in the cylinder operating range.
7. Installation 7-1. Mounting bracket Through hole type and both ends tapped style are available. 7-2 Mounting ① Align the center of the pallet and the cylinder when mounting. ② Make sure to flush inside the piping with air before piping to remove foreign matter. Filter removes foreign matter such as dust and scaling inside the piping before the filter, but not after the filter.
7-3. Change of the piston rod direction For roller type and lever type, feed the pallet from the direction shown in Fig.4. Prior to changing the piston rod direction, default factory settings require pallet to feed toward piping port side of cylinder. [ Changing method of the ø12 bore piston rod direction ](Fig.5) ①...
7-4. Absorbed energy adjustment Absorbed energy is adjusted by a stroke change using the adjustment bolt. (Cylinder is set for maximum absorbed energy at the time of shipment) [Adjustment method] (See Fig. 7) ①Loosen the set screw holding adjustment bolt in place (M4). ②Turn the adjustment bolt so that the impact is reduced.

Please do not remove the grease applied to the piston rod end of the built-in shock absorber and periodically check the condition of the grease. 10. Maintenance Service 10-1. Maintenance of cylinder ① When cylinder fails to function due to air leakage or breakage of the shock absorber, replace the seal kit and the shock absorber.
