    The intended use of the P-2x5 is only possible in a completely mounted and connected state and only in combination with suitable drive or control electronics (p. 12) available from PI. The electronics is not included in the scope of delivery of the P-2x5.

  • Page 10: Organizational Measures

    2 Safety Temperature changes and compressive stresses can induce charges in the P-2x5 piezo actuator. After being disconnected from the electronics, the piezo actuator can stay charged for several hours. Touching the live parts of the P-2x5 can result in serious injury or death from electric shock.

    3 Product Description Technical Features 3.6.1 PICA Piezo Actuators P-2x5 are PICA preloaded high-load piezo actuators for static and dynamic applications. They have a submillisecond response time and subnanometer resolution. The piezo actuators have a friction-free, preloaded PICA Power piezo ceramic that is integrated in a stainless-steel housing.

  • Page 21: Unpacking

    4 Unpacking Unpacking NOTICE Destruction of the piezo actuator due to rapid discharging! If the P-2x5 is not connected to the electronics, the lines on the voltage connection must be short-circuited in order to prevent the piezo actuator from charging during temperature changes and compressive stresses.
  • Page 22 When handling the vacuum version of the piezo actuator, appropriate cleanliness must be ensured. At PI, all parts are cleaned before assembly. During assembly and calibration, powder- free gloves are worn. Afterwards, the piezo actuator is cleaned once again by wiping and shrink-wrapped twice in vacuum-compatible film.
