Pneumatic installation

5.2.1

Pneumatic ports 1 and 2

If using fittings with spanner size larger than SW24:
• Remove the cover cap MS6-END (push upwards), if available.
If using fittings:
• Observe the permissible screw-in depth of the connecting thread of 10 mm.
For larger screw-in depths, the sub-bases MS6-AG.../AQ from Festo must be used.
• Make sure that the compressed air line is connected correctly.
• Screw the fittings into the pneumatic ports using appropriate sealing material.
5.2.2

Pneumatic port 3

When exhausting a system through the MS6-SV-E, high sound pressure levels are generated. We there-
fore recommend that you use a silencer.
Note
Warning
Loss of the safety function
If a commercially-available silencer is used, the body of the silencer may become
clogged, which can result in reduced exhaust performance (back pressure), which can
lead to a complete loss of the safety function.
• Use the safety silencer designed for the device UOS-... (
ies").
• Only use a commercially available silencer if it will be employed in combination with
a back pressure monitoring system. In addition, the silencer must be checked regu-
larly by service staff and replaced, if necessary.
• Screw the silencer into the pneumatic port 3.
• Make sure that there is unrestricted air venting. Neither the silencer nor port 3 may be blocked.
