Series INSTRUCTION MANUAL SM-189671-A/8 Combination: C□□□0 Series (excluding Oil Mist Filter) Filter Regulator: W□000, W□100 Series Air Filter: F□000 Series Regulator: R□000, R□100 Series Lubricator: L□000 Series • Read this Instruction Manual before using the product.
• Since there are a wide variety of customer applications, it is impossible for CKD to be aware of all of them. Depending on the application or usage, the product may not be able to exercise its full performance or an accident may occur due to fluid, piping, or other conditions.
SM-189671-A/8 SAFETY INFORMATION SAFETY INFORMATION When designing and manufacturing any device incorporating the product, the manufacturer has an obligation to ensure that the device is safe. To that end, make sure that the safety of the machine mechanism of the device, the pneumatic or water control circuit, and the electric system that controls such mechanism is ensured.
• For applications where life or properties may be adversely affected and special safety measures are required. (Exception is made if the customer consults with CKD prior to use and understands the specifications of the product. However, even in that case, safety measures must be taken to avoid danger in case of a possible failure.)
SM-189671-A/8 1. INSTALLATION 1. INSTALLATION 1.1 Environment WARNING Do not use the product in an atmosphere where synthetic oil, organic solvent, chemicals, cutting oil, screw lock agent, leak detection agent, hot water, or other hazardous factors are present or in a place where they may adhere to the product. Deterioration may occur since plastic bowls in the air filter and in the lubricator, the drip window of the lubricator, and the pressure gauge lens are made of polycarbonate.
