Basic safety notes 2.5 Gripper fingers Requirements of gripper fingers Accumulated energy can make the product unsafe and risk the danger of serious injuries and considerable material damage. Execute the gripper fingers in such a way that the product reaches either the "open" or "closed" position in a de- energized state.
Basic safety notes Trained electrician Due to their technical training, knowledge and experience, trained electricians are able to work on electrical systems, recognize and avoid possible dangers and know the relevant standards and regulations. Qualified personnel Due to its technical training, knowledge and experience, qualified personnel is able to perform the delegated tasks, recognize and avoid possible dangers and knows the relevant standards and regulations.
Basic safety notes Eliminate any malfunction immediately. Observe the care and maintenance instructions. Observe the current safety, accident prevention and environmental protection regulations regarding the product's application field. 2.10 Transport Handling during transport Incorrect handling during transport may impair the product's safety and cause serious injuries and considerable material damage.
Basic safety notes Disconnect power sources before installation, modification, maintenance, or calibration. Ensure that no residual energy remains in the system. If the energy supply is connected, do not move any parts by hand. Do not reach into the open mechanism or movement area of the product during operation.

Basic safety notes action being dependent on the control unit and the current operating condition of the drive. Perform maintenance work, modifications, and attachments outside the danger zone defined by the movement range. To avoid accidents and/or material damage, human access to the movement range of the machine must be restricted.
Basic safety notes 2.13.4 Protection against electric shock Possible electrostatic energy Components or assembly groups may become electrostatically charged. When the electrostatic charge is touched, the discharge may trigger a shock reaction leading to injuries. The operator must ensure that all components and assembly groups are included in the local potential equalisation in accordance with the applicable regulations.
Basic safety notes 2.14 Notes on particular risks DANGER Risk of fatal injury from suspended loads! Falling loads can cause serious injuries and even death. Stand clear of suspended loads and do not step within their swiveling range. Never move loads without supervision. Do not leave suspended loads unattended.
Page 17
Basic safety notes WARNING Risk of burns through contact with hot surfaces! Surfaces of components can heat up severely during operation. Skin contact with hot surfaces causes severe burns to the skin. For all work in the vicinity of hot surfaces, wear safety gloves. Before carrying out any work, make sure that all surfaces have cooled down to the ambient temperature.

Assembly 4 Assembly 4.1 Mounting the gripper The gripper can be fastened on the side, on the finger side and on the bottom. Screws are included in the accessory pack for lateral and finger- side mounting. Centering is performed by means of centering sleeves, which are also included in the accessory pack.

Assembly NOTE Observe the requirements for the compressed air supply, Link Technische Daten. In case of compressed air loss (cutting off the energy line), the components lose their dynamic effects and do not remain in a secure position. However, the use of a SDV-P pressure maintenance valve is recommended in this case in order to maintain the dynamic effect for some time.

Assembly Switching function: brown drawn in undampened closer load black condition blue The inductive proximity switches used are equipped with reverse polarity protection and are short-circuit-proof. Make sure that you handle the proximity switches properly: Do not pull on the cable. Do not allow the sensor to dangle from the cable.

Loosen the screw (29) and turn the switching lug (9) so that it faces towards the proximity switch. Re-tighten the screw (29). For PWG 65 (INW 60): Carefully push the proximity switch into the bracket (10) until it touches the switching lug. Then pull back the proximity switch approx. 0.5 mm.
Unused air connections open. Close unused air connections. Flow control valve closed. Open the flow control valve. Component part defective. Replace component or send it to SCHUNK for repair. 5.2 The module does not travel through the entire stroke? Possible cause Corrective action Pressure drops below minimum.
Maintenance 6 Maintenance 6.1 Notes Original spare parts Use only original spare parts of SCHUNK when replacing spare and wear parts. 6.2 Maintenance interval CAUTION Material damage due to hardening lubricants! Lubricants harden more quickly at temperatures above 60°C, leading to possible product damage.
Maintenance Unscrew the screws (25) and remove the plate (6). Loosen the set-screws (30) until the bolt (8) can be pushed out. Mark the installation position of the bolts and the fingers / jaws (7 / 11). Remove the fingers / jaws (7 / 11). Unscrew the screw (23) and remove the bar (5).
