  • Page 3 Safety Instructions These safety instructions are intended to prevent hazardous situations and/or equipment damage. These instructions indicate the level of potential hazard with the labels of “Caution,” “Warning” or “Danger.” They are all important notes for safety and must be followed in addition to International Standards (ISO/IEC) , and other safety regulations.
  • Page 4 Safety Instructions Caution We develop, design, and manufacture our products to be used for automatic control equipment, and provide them for peaceful use in manufacturing industries. Use in non-manufacturing industries is not covered. Products we manufacture and sell cannot be used for the purpose of transactions or certification specified in the Measurement Act.

    Lubrication of non-lubricating cylinder  The product is a non-lube type and should be used without lubrication. If it is necessary to lubricate, install the lubricator in the circuit and use Class 1 turbine oil (with no additive) ISO VG32. Once lubricant is used in the system, lubrication must be continued because the original lubricant applied during manufacturing will be washed away.
  • Page 7 ! C a u t i o n 1.Avoid having a large gap between the clevis and mating bushing, as this exposes the pin to a bending load. 2.Do not touch the cylinder during high speed and high frequency operation of the cylinder.
  • Page 8: Mounting And Installation

    2-3. Mounting and Installation 1) There is a tolerance location diameter at the end surface of the cover specifically for accurate alignment when mounting. 2) The foot mounting cylinder has a hole in the foot to drive a pin into for accurate positioning and fixing.
  • Page 9 2) When female rod end is used, use a washer, etc. to prevent the contact part at the rod end from being deformed depending on the material of the work piece. 3) For the female rod end thread type, spanner flap (K and KA portions) will be inside of the bracket when the piston rod is retracted at the stroke end.

  • Page 11: Speed Control

    2-5. Speed control When the piston speed is adjusted, install SMC AS series speed controller near the air supply port to adjust to the specified speed. There are two methods of speed adjustment, one is to restrict air supplied to the product (meter-in), and the other is to restrict air exhausted from the product (meter-out).

    7)Do not turn the cushion valne the number of rotations shown below or more from its fully closed state. If it is turned the number of rotations shown below or more, the cushion valve may come off and jump out by the air pressure. Table 2 The applied kinetic energy must be within the allowable value when an inertial load is actuated.

D-M9NW・M9PW・M9BW・M9NW V・M9PWV・M9BWV (2)Make sure that auto switch mounting band is D-M9NA・M9PA・M9BA・M9NA V・M9PAV・M9BAV not slanted.
  • Page 15 Auto Switch Mounting Brackets/Part No. Table 4 Note 1) Since the switch bracket (made from nylon) are affected in an environment where alcohol, chloroform, methylamines, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid is splashed over, so it cannot be used. Note 2) When mounting a D-M9A(V) type auto switch, if the switch bracket is mounted on the indicator light, it may damage the auto switch.

For disassembling, hold the flats of the tube cover gently in a vice and hold the flats of the rod cover with a spanner or adjustable wrench to loosen and remove the rod cover.
  • Page 22 3-2-3. Grease ! C a u t i o n Use SMC’s recommended grease.  Grease pack part number: GR-S-010 (10g), GR-S-020 (20g) Refer to Page 27 for made to order product (XC85, X446). 1) ① Rod seal Apply a thin layer of grease to all surfaces of the new seal to make it easy to mount the rod seal and improve sealing.
  • Page 23: Consumable Parts

    3-2-4. Mounting of seals 1) Rod seal (Fig.8, ① ) Pay attention to the mounting direction of the seal. Apply grease all over the seal and inner surface of the bushing as shown in Fig. 9. If it is difficult to apply grease, for example to a small bore diameter, use a precision screwdriver.
  • Page 24 3-3-2. Storage of seals ! C a u t i o n Store seals in sealed packaging such as polyethylene bag and place it in a  box. Avoid locations exposed to direct sunlight and high temperature and  humidity. In particular, isolate from equipment that can generate heat, radiation and ozone.
