Compressed air reservoir ( 3 )
If the position i ng behaviour does not conform to your require-
ments, and if you ascertain fluctuations in pressure of over
1 bar at the measuring point, then proceed as follows:
S Fit a compressed air reservoir (e.g. type VZS-...-B) be-
tween the service unit and the proportional directional
control valve.
In this way you can reduce fluctuations in pressure during
operation. You can compensate for slight excesses in the per-
mitted pressure fluc tuation by using supply tubing with a
larger diameter .
Reservoir volume:
The reservoir volume should be at least four times as large as
thevolumeofthedriveused.
