Adjusting The Distance Between Ink Jet And Ink Drop Voltage Detector - Leibinger RAPID Series Technical Information

Appendix
7.2.3

Adjusting the distance between ink jet and ink drop voltage detector

• The following steps are only necessary after the entire drop production unit was
disassembled and reassembled e.g. after exchanging defective parts.
Do not carry out these steps for a standard ink jet adjustment!
After a reassembling of the drop production unit, it may be necessary to adjust the distance
between the ink drop voltage detector and the ink jet.
Set screw: 0,9 mm hex
The optimal distance between ink jet (illustrated as blue dotted line) and the surface of the ink
drop voltage detector is 5/10 mm. It must be less than 1 mm.
Use the set screw to adjust the distance:
•
turn the screw to the right to increase the distance
• turn the screw to the left to decrease the distance.
