Transportation and installation 2.2.2 Fixing of product Mount the product on a flat and stable floor with no vibrations. - Refer to “6.2 Outer dimensions” on page 6-2 for dimensions. - Use the foundation bolts to prevent the product from falling over. The foundation bolts are available separately as a set.
2. Transportation and installation 2.2.3 Pneumatic piping - Piping to the compressed air inlet and outlet should be connected with a union of fitting so that it can be removed. - Pressing the hexagonal fitting with screw wrench and so on, connect the air piping fittings to the body. - When mounting any part such as an air filter on the fitting at the compressed air inlet or outlet port, support the part to prevent excessive force from being applied to the product.
[Wiring of power supply] There are two methods depends on model (specified power). IDF15E1-10 (100V AC specification) Insert the power plug into an outlet of AC100V. ∗ Be sure to install an round fault circuit interrupter to the power supply. (To be prepared by the user.) [Sensitivity of leak current: 30mA or less, Rated current: 10A] Do not extend the power cable using power strip and so on.
2. Transportation and installation Terminal block (refer to “1.1 Name and function of parts” for details). Connect the power cable and the ground to the terminal block. The connection size is M3. Be sure to use a round crimped terminal. Applicable crimped terminal width: 6.5mm or less [Wiring procedure] 1.
