and other safety practices.
1. The compatibility of pneumatic equipment is the responsibility of the person
who designs the pneumatic system or decides its specifications.
Since the products specified here are used in various operating conditions, their compatibility with the
specific pneumatic system must be based on specifications or after analysis and/or tests to meet your
specific requirements. The expected performance and safety assurance will be the responsibility of the
person who has determined the compatibility of the system. This person should continuously review the
suitability of all items specified, referring to the latest catalogue information with a view to giving due
consideration to any possibility of equipment failure when configuring a system.
2. Only trained personnel should operate pneumatically operated machinery and
equipment.
Compressed air can be dangerous if handled incorrectly. Assembly, handling or maintenance of
pneumatic systems should be performed by trained and experienced operators.
3. Do not service machinery/equipment or attempt to remove components until
safety is confirmed.
1. Inspection and maintenance of machinery/equipment should only be performed once measures to
prevent falling or runaway of the driven object have been confirmed.
2. When equipment is to be removed, confirm the safety process as mentioned above. Cut the supply
pressure for this equipment and exhaust all residual compressed air in the system.
3. Before machinery/equipment is restarted, take measures to prevent shooting-out of cylinder piston rod,
etc.
4. Contact SMC if the product is to be used in any of the following conditions:
1. Conditions and environments beyond the given specifications, or if product is used outdoors.
2. Installation on equipment in conjunction with atomic energy, railway, air navigation, vehicles, medical
equipment, food and beverages, recreation equipment, emergency stop circuits, clutch and brake circuit
in press applications, or safety equipment.
3. An application which has the possibility of having negative effects on people, property, or animals,
requiring special safety analysis.
