8. Transport the module assembly to the mounting location and lower it slowly and
carefully into position.
9. Secure the system to the mounting platform, then go to the next chapter for
details on connecting cables to the controller and other system components.

Cleanroom System Installation

The installation of modules in a cleanroom system is nearly identical to the installation of
standard modules. On cleanroom systems, two 8-mm lines per module exit from the first
module. The air lines must be connected to the house vacuum system, using the following
guidelines.
Before installing the air lines, do the following for all types of systems:
• Follow the system-specific instructions in this manual for installing the Python
system.
• Cut two sections of pneumatic tubing per cleanroom module to use for the air
lines. Make sure the air lines are long enough to extend from the house vacuum
source to the modules.
When installing the cleanroom modules, note the following.
• To maintain Class 10 cleanliness, make sure that the module speed does not
exceed 500 mm/sec.
• Supply 30-45 liters/minute per air line (60-90 liters/minute per module) of air
flow from the vacuum source at the point where the air lines enter the first
module. Note that, due to air loss along the lengths of tubing, it might be necessary
to supply more than 60 liters/minute from the vacuum source to achieve this level
at the module entry point.
Connect air lines between the house vacuum source and the two air lines per module that
exit from the first module.
