Operating Precaution - SMC Networks AFF75A-20 Operation Manual

1.Operating Precaution

Selection / Design
Warning
1. Confirm the specifications.
This product is designed only for use in compressed
air systems (including vacuum).
Do not operate at pressures or temperatures, etc.,
beyond the range of specifications, as this can cause
damage or malfunction. (Refer to the specifications.)
We do not guarantee against any damage if the
product is used outside of the specification range.
2. To select equipment first, thoroughly verify the
purpose, specification requirements, and the
operating conditions such as fluid, pressure, flow
rate, temperature,
making sure not to exceed the specification
ranges. If handled
unforeseen accidents.
3. Do not use this product for caisson shielding,
breathing, medical use, medicine that is injected
by humans, or for blowing air on food products.
This product has been designed exclusively for
industrial compressed air, and it should not be used
for any other purpose.
4. Do not use this product on board a vehicle or a
vessel.
This product must not be installed and used on board
A conveyance such as a vehicle or a vessel, since it
may become damaged due to vibrations.
5. Do not disassemble the product or make any
modifications, including additional machining.
It may cause human injury and/or an accident.
6. Do not operate under the conditions listed below
due to a risk of malfunction.
1) In locations having corrosive gases, organic
solvents and chemical solutions, or in locations in
which these elements are likely to adhere to the
equipment.
2) In locations in which sea water, water, or water
steam could come in contact with the equipment.
3) In locations that are exposed to direct sunlight.
(Shield the equipment from sunlight to prevent
overheating. )
4) In locations that have a heat source and poor
ventilation. (Shield the equipment from heat sources
to protect it from softening degradation due to
radiated heat. )
5) In locations that are exposed to shocks and
vibrations.
6) In locations with high humidity or a large amounts of
dust.
Caution
1. The mist separator is not applicable to gases
other than compressed air.
The mist separator is not applicable to gases other
Than compressed air (example: oxygen, hydrogen,
Flammable gas, mixed gas).
2. Do not use compressed air that contains
chemicals, organic solvents, salt, or corrosive
gases.
Do not use compressed gas containing chemicals,
organic solvents, salt or corrosive gas. This can
cause rust, damage to rubber and resin parts, or
malfunction.
and environment. Then,
improperly, leading
3. Operate within the specified operating pressure
range.
Damage, failure, or malfunction may occur if the mist
Separator is operated above the maximum operating
pressure.
4. Do not introduce an air flow that is greater than
the rated flow rate.
If the rated flow rate is exceeded even momentarily,
it could cause insufficient moisture elimination or
drain or oil splash to the outlet side or lead to
equipment damage.
Warning
to
1. Safety measure
The weight of this product is 50kg or more.
Transfer and install this product using the crane
etc, to prevent a drop and a fall.
Caution
1. Verify the installation position.
Make sure to install this product on horizontal place.
Design the piping so that a slight taper is provided
along the flow to prevent the drain from accumulating.
2. Ensure sufficient
activities.
When installing the products, allow access for
Maintenance.
3. Verify the IN and OUT sides.
When connecting the piping, avoid interchanging the
IN and the OUT sides.
4. Fix the feet to the ground firmly using foundation
bolt, etc.
5. Preparation before piping
Use an air blower to thoroughly flush the piping to
remove any foreign matter from inside the piping
before connecting them.
Operating Precaution
Warning
1. Do not loosen bolts, while pressure is applied.
Before disassembling the equipment on the
compressed air side for loosening the bolt, confirm
that the pressure is set to zero.
Caution
1. During operation
Comfirm that air leakage do not occur.
If an abnormal condition occurs, such as air leakage,
Immediately, stop the flow of compressed air and
confirm connection of piping, etc.
