Before installation, check whether the slide valve is adjusted correctly. Adjust the setting if necessary:

Check whether the slide valve closes tightly.

Inductive limit switches (optional): check the settings “Slide OPEN” - “Slide CLOSED”.

See section 4.1.3 for information about setting the limit switches.

4.1.2 Pneumatically actuated slide valves

Before a pneumatically actuated slide valve is installed, a check should be made to see that it is working

properly:

The tip of the slide plate may be no further than 5 mm away from the frame

If necessary, the limit switches must be set:

Undo the lock nuts and screw the limit switches in or out until the correct end position has been

reached.

Caution! Damage to property!

Caution: Do not screw the limit switches in too far, otherwise the switching lug will

shear them off.

Caution: Look out for shear point when closing the slide valve.

4.1.3 Motor-actuated slide valves

Before a motor-actuated slide valve is installed, a check should be made to see that it is working properly.
