5.3 Pneumatic connection
CAUTION
Material damage due to loss of compressed air!
The SWA can become loose in the event of a loss of compressed
air, but the connection between SWK and SWA is ensured by a
patented self-locking mechanism. The SWK can then no longer
decouple a coupled SWA or accept a new SWA. A loss of
compressed air leads to increased wear.
• End the fail-safe operation as soon as possible. To do this,
restore the compressed air supply or stop operation of the
machine/automated system to eliminate the cause of the
failure.
• After a fail-safe operation, check the system for damage and
monitor the resumption of normal operation for proper
functioning.
NOTE
Observe the requirements for the compressed air supply,
