  • Page 8: Definition Of Signal Words And Symbols

    Definition of signal words and symbols The signal words and symbols used in the technical documentation (safety instructions, operating instruction booklet, etc.) have the following meaning: DANGER Indicates an immediate danger which causes serious injuries or even death if not avoided. WARNING Indicates a threatening danger which can cause serious injuries or even death if not avoided.
  • Page 9: Safety Instructions

    Use beyond its intended use is considered unauthorized and therefore improper. Further- more, DEPRAG is not liable for damage resulting from the misuse of the instrument; the user alone is liable. The correct use of the instrument includes compliance with all operating, maintenance and repair instructions.
  • Page 10: Scope Of Delivery

    The sequence controller AST11 is a sequence controller with integrated performance elec- tronics to operate DEPRAG MICROMAT-EC screwdriver or MINIMAT–EC screwdrivers (stationary and handheld). The AST11-1/-S can be operated with screwdrivers of the series 320Exx19 and 320Exx22 and 320Exx27. The AST11-2/-S can be operated with screwdrivers of the series 320Exx36.

    Parameter: The following parameters are used in the screwing sample: • Supervision time Maximum time until the screwing level is aborted • Angle friction measurement Input of the angle range in which the friction monitoring should be active. • Friction value type: Mean value/maximum value selectively the maximum value or mean value of the friction value can be used to de- termine the friction torque.
  • Page 86 Switching off criteria: The screwing process is ended once the • cut-out torque is reached • a monitoring criteria is reached • the maximum screwing time (monitoring time) is expired Analysis: OK evaluation: The screwing level is considered OK (fault free), if the switching off occurs via the differential moment and the value of the torque is in the set limits.
