WARNING

5.2 Suction bar

The system is mounted on the load suspension provided by the customer (e.g. a gantry crane or
robot) using the T-slots designated for this purpose. The customer also provides a control device.
The suspension should be designed to allow the system to adapt flexibly to the workpieces when it is
placed on them (e.g. spring-mounted or floating suspension).
The system must be attached securely, taking the weight of the system and its maximum load-bearing
capacity into account.

5.3 Pneumatic connection

The compressed air is connected to the valve plate using the pneumatic coupling included in delivery.
Requirements for the compressed air provided by the customer:
Dry, filtered air according to ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4]
Constant operating pressure: 6 bar.
Standard nominal diameters for the pneumatic coupling:
SBX with external vacuum generation DN 7.2
If you select a supply hose that is too small, not enough compressed air will be supplied to the
pneumatic elements (ejector, etc.) for optimal operation.

5.4 Vacuum connection

In systems with external vacuum generation, a hose that is suitable for vacuum applications must be
connected to the installed nozzle and secured with a suitable hose clamp. The supply hose should
have the same nominal diameter as the installed nozzle. Reducing the nominal diameter of the hose
can impair the system's functionality.

5.5 Solenoid valves

The solenoid valves control the separating and ventilation cylinders. The customer is responsible for
the control system. The pin assignments for control of the solenoid valves can be found in the pin
assignment diagram (5.6).
 The functional sequence is described in detail for each suction bar type. (See 6.2)
