3.3.Air Supply
Caution
Use dry and filtered air only.
l
Follow ISO 8573-1 Class 7.4.4.
l
The optimal pressure for compressed air consumption is 6 bar (87 psi). The maximum pressure allowed is 8 bar (115
l
psi).
Robotiq recommends using a local pressure regulator with a filter and air dryer. The filter should prevent any dust
l
particle larger than 5 µm from getting inside the system.
3.3.1 .Connecting the Supply Line
Compressed air must be supplied to the Vacuum Gripper according to the technical specifications.
The air supply tubing must be connected and disconnected to or from the inlet port only when the line is depressurized.
It is recommended to use a lockout valve before connecting to the product.
To protect against whipping hazards, the air supply tubing (connected to the PowerPick20 vacuum generator) must be firmly
secured. An air fuse can also be installed.
At optimal pressure (6 bar / 87 psi), the air supply line must ensure an air flow of 510 lpm.
Make sure any other pneumatic equipment connected to the same supply line is not temporarily reducing the air flow made
available for the vacuum generator.
