5.Operating Air and Piping
5-1) Install air filter.
The rodless cylinder is non-lubrication type.
Install air filter to upstream near the valve and
adjust pneumatic pressure decreased to
desired set pressure by regulator.
5-2) Lubrication to compressed air
The rodless cylinder can be operated only
by initial lubrication at shipment. But if the
lubrication needs to be added due to
specifications, use Turbin oil class 1 (no
additive) ISO VG32. If the operation without
supply of additional lubrication is required
again, the cylinder needs to be sent to SMC
factory to enable re-application of adequate
amount of lubrication (grease).
5-3) For piping at both ends, change the
position of plug suitable for each operating
condition.
The piping port is made on axial direction of
cylinder and side face, but the port on side
face is plugged for shipment.
5-4) For common piping, remain switch
rail and plug installed. Removal of these
components may cause external leakage.
6.Disassembly and Maintenance
If the cylinder needs to be disassembled for
replacement of piston packing, soft wiper and
wearing, specific tool is required. The specific
tool can be ordered by part no. shown on Table 6.

6-1) If the cylinder body or piston is removed
from cylinder tube, displace the positions
of external slider and piston forcedly to
eliminate holding force and take out them
individually. If they are removed together with
holding force left, they become unable to
separate from each other by internal and
external magnet force.
6-2) Loosen hexagon socket head female on side
of end cover by hexagon wrench, take off
attachment ring from the end cover with specific
tool and then remove the end cover from
cylinder tube. After that, remove Circular stop
ring mounted on the external face of the cylinder
tube by snap ring pliers. The used magnet
has strong suction force and should be
handled with care when external slider and
piston slider are removed from cylinder tube.
6-3) Never disassembly the parts which compose
the magnet (external slider and piston slider).
The disassembly of them may deprive holding
force from the magnet and cause operating
failure.
6-4) Take off the watch for handling of external
slider and piston slider.
6-5) Handle external slider and piston slider with
care to protect the magnet from drop on the
floor and collision to the metal. And apply
the grease periodically on external face of
cylinder tube. The grease can be ordered
by the following part no.
<φ6, φ10>
1) Inner side of cylinder tube
GR-S-*
2) Outer side of cylinder tube and sliding side of
switch rail
GR-F-*
<φ15~φ63>
GR-S-*
Note)This grease is used for inner and outer side of
cylinder tube.
