5.1.3 Pneumatic Requirements
The factory compressed air supply must be “clean (to a 5 micron level), dry and unlubricated” air with a reg-
ulated maximum pressure of 100 psig (690 kPa).
Depending on your application, the actuator requires
between 35 to 100 psi. Stands include an in-line air filter. Actuators (alone) require a customer-
provided air filter. A quick-disconnect fitting is suggested. Use a lockout device on the air line if
required.
Air Filter
Actuators (alone) require a customer-provided air filter which protects from particulate matter of 5 microns
or larger. If a stand is mounted in a position other than upright (vertical), its air filter must be relocated and
oriented so its bowl is the lowest point, and the air flow across the air filter is horizontal. This may require
some re-plumbing of the existing equipment at the customer site. The air filter is held in place by two screws
on a bracket bolted to the actuator support, and by the factory-installed tubing.
Pneumatic Tubing and Connectors
Actuator assemblies are not externally plumbed from the factory, but provide conventional 1/4-inch OD
pneumatic tubing connection at the air inlet. If making connections for an actuator, or if re-plumbing your
system for a new air filter location, you must use 1/4-inch OD tubing and connectors rated above 100 psi
(use “Imperial Eastman® Poly-Flo Tubing 44-P-1/4”, and SMC 5/16” tubing, or equivalent, and appropriate
connectors).
Pneumatic Connections to Actuator
ae actuators require clean, dry input air at 100 psi filtered to 5 microns.
5.2 Physical Description
The 2000X Power Supply is part of an industrial system that can be used for ultrasonic welding, inserting,
staking, spot welding, swaging, and degating thermoplastic parts, and for cutting and sealing thermoplastic
fabric and film. Branson 2000X Power Supplies can operate with Actuators in manual, semi-automated, or
automated systems.
