Introduction Operating / Mounting instruction 1.12 Conditions of utilization General introductory notes With the electro cylinder you bought a product which was manufactured and tested before delivery with the utmost care. Please take your time to read the following notes which you ought to follow closely during setup and operation.
If the heating of the ETH Electro Cylinder is within the permissible are of the F-v-Diagram (a) or if an application specific release (b) from Parker Hannifin is necessary, the selected ETH can be used within the ATEX application described.
Motor/ gear assembly ...................... 32 Read safety instructions (see page 14) before taking into operation! If no Parker drive is provided, attach your motor-gearbox combination according to the instructions in chapter motor and gearbox assembly (see page 32). Also observe the notes in the assembly instructions for the motor/gear unit combination used.
Parker EME Mounting 2.1.1. Mounting with mounting threads on the cylinder The easiest and most economic method of mounting is using the available mounting threads on the cylinder body (mouning option F, dimensions: see ETH catalogue). Make sure that the mounting surface is level and that the cylinder is mounted without tension and contortion.
Parker EME Mounting For all mounting options the following applies: Joint area must be dry and free of grease We recommend to secure the screws with a liquid bolt retaining compound (e.g. Loctite 242) With mounting option F, H and J, do not mount the cylinder horizontally on one side as in this case the bolted connections are improperly high burdened due to pitching torques and cross forces.
Commissioning Operating / Mounting instruction The rod guide is smooth running and can easily slide out of the rod guide module depending on its position. Hold the rod guide horizontally. Pull out the front plate with the guide rods from the rod guide module and set ...
Use a flexible cylinder fixing device (accessories) such as rear clevis or center trunnion. Do only use the rod ends supplied by Parker. Only use the nut delivered with the rod end option M as counter screw. The connection provided from the customer is always screwed in the thread of option M.
Depending on the design of the proximity switches, the proximity switches protrude up to 1 mm from the mounting groove of the cylinder. Proximity swichtes and limit switches: please refer to im ETH Catalogue http://solutions.parker.com/eth_support. In ETH ATEX cylinders only certified sensors must be used: Area 1 (Category 2G) ...
