Checking the valve-cylinder combination
WARNING
When exhausting or repressurizing the valve terminal
under the following conditions:
– with safety start-up valve
(slow pressure build-up) and
– when there is an electrical signal
(e.g. after EMERGENCY STOP)
Supply the auxiliary pilot air separately (3 to 8 bar).
The auxiliary pilot air must reach its full level immedi-
ately after being switched on, otherwise the slow pres-
sure build-up of the overall supply will have no effect
with cylinders actuated as follows:
– by means of single solenoid valves
– by means of double solenoid valves which are
switched to flow-through during the pressureless
phase.
The effects of slow pressure build-up when there is an
electrical signal are shown in the table below.
