Safety instructions Modifications on the CS module that are not described in these Montage Instructions or have not been approved in writing by Afag Automation AG are not permitted. In case of improper changes or assembly, installation, operation and maintenance or repairs Afag rejects all liability.
CS 12/30-SD; CS 12/60-SD; CS 12/90-SD CS 12/30-ED; CS 12/60-ED; CS 12/90-ED Consecutive Series: No. 50xxxxxx The manufacturer: Afag Automation AG, Fiechtenstrasse 32, CH-4950 Huttwil Tel. +41 62 959 87 02, www.afag.com This is an incomplete machine This partly completed machinery must not be put into service until the final machinery into which it is to be incorporated has been declared in conformity with the provisions of this Directive 206/42/EG, where appropriate.
The CS-module can be installed in the horizontal or vertical position. Modifications on the CS-module that are not described in these Montage Instructions or have not been approved in writing by Afag Automation AG are not permitted. In case of improper changes or assembly, installation, operation, maintenance or repairs, Afag Automation AG rejects all liability.
3.1.3 Description of the module CS 12 CS 8 Base body Stop screw with integrated shock absorber Slide Sensor nuts Air connection The CS 8/12 consists of the base body (1) with pneumatic connections and cylinder and the moveably mounted slide (2). The stop positions are set by means of a stop screw with integrated shock absorber (3).
Modifications on the module that are not described in these Montage Instructions or have not been approved in writing by Afag are not permitted. In case of improper changes or assembly, installation, operation, maintenance or repairs, Afag rejects all liability.
3.1.7 Areas of application The CS Compact Slides are exclusively designed for the linear movement of load capacities of up to 0,3 – 0.7 – 3.0 kg (CS 8); (CS 12 to 1,2 kg), in any position on the slide and maximum 0.3-0.4 kg (CS 8); (CS 12 to 0.7 kg) at the face side of the module;...
3.2.2 Pneumatic connection The shock absorber is located at the side of the base body of the CS 8/30 / CS 8/60 /CS 12/30 / CS 12/60 / CS 12/90 Two pneumatic connections (M5), are on the rear.. The CS 8/10 only has 2 air connections on the rear. Pneumatic connections that are not used must be closed airtight with the locking screws included in the scope of supply.
3.2.3 Preparation for start-up If they put before the introduction only shock absorber, so that slide is absorbed in position. Sensor nuts Air connection M5 Shock absorber Shock absorber Air connection Air connection M5 CAUTION The CS module must not be operated without shock absorbers installed as it may be damaged due to missing damping.

3.2.4 Notes on elastomer shock absorbers NOTE Elastomer shock absorbers are actually a spring element, i.e. the holding force of the carriage is more or less reduced in the end position as compared with hydraulic dampers and depending on the setting of the absorber stroke.
3.2.5 Installation of the sensors Clamping proximity switches are used to query the CS stop positions. Polling of the stop positions is monitored by an LED on the initiator. If the LED switch status does not change during inquiry of the stop positions the sensor is faulty and must be replaced.
3.2.7 Fitting the proximity switch in the module grooves There are two C-grooves for the proximity switches on the right-hand side of the CS module. These proximity switches are used to query the stop positions. Proximity switch Screw for fastening the clamping piece in the groove Screw for fastening the proximity Clamping piece...
