3.3.2 Information relating to the self-locking facility

WARNING
Danger of injury through loss of the self-locking facility.
Crushing and fatal injuries are possible.
• Use device with a brake.

CAUTION
Possible damage to the device or customer’s machine through loss of the self-
locking facility.
• Use device with a brake.

With the devices it is differentiated between dynamic and static self-locking. Dy-
namic self-locking arises from movement and static self-locking when the device
is at a standstill. The self locking facility on the devices is dependent on various
factors, e.g.:
• Flight angle of the spindle and nut
• Surface roughness of the flanks of the spindle and nut
• Running speed

The self-locking facility can be negatively influenced by a multitude of factors,


e.g. by:
• Shocks and vibrations
• Loads
• Heating

A theoretically self-locking spindle is no replacement for a brake. For this reason


the assumption of any warranty obligations relating to self-locking is excluded.

Self-locking is NOT for the purpose of fulfilling any safety-related properties.

In order to minimize any further dangers, observe the duty of care that is normal
for technical products.

Overload cut-off:
If enable is pending and a travel direction signal is issued, delay time "tV" starts
running. Only after "tV" has elapsed is the overload cut-off active for gating the
higher motor start-up current. If motor current rises above "IÜ", the motor is de-
energised. It can only be put into operation again after briefly deactivating the
enable or the direction of travel signal.

4.3.7 Bellows option


To assure permanent and trouble-free use of the bellows, the following must be
observed.

CAUTION
Damage to bellows
• Do not allow sharp edges to come into contact with bellows.
• Do not pinch creases of bellows during operation.
• Do not place bellows on moving machinery.

In the event of very long, horizontally positioned bellows, it is recommended to


suspend the bellows suitably in order to prevent any sagging and wear on the
piston rod.

To prevent any pressure building up on the inside of the bellows, a tongue-


shaped cut or a small hole should be made at the corresponding point in a bel-
lows crease.

4.4 Limit switches


To adjust the limit switches, use the locking frame or a suitable box spanner
(size 4).
If the "Rotary knob" option is used, no further tools are required.

Installation

4.4.1 Permissible adjusting range of limit switches

CAUTION
Risk of damage to unit by exceeding permissible range of adjustment.
• The "retracted" and "ejected" limit switches must not be adjusted any more
than 10 mm in the direction of stroke reduction.

4.4.2 Adjustment of limit switches

CAUTION
Risk of damage to unit by incorrect limit switch adjustment.
• Before adjusting the limit switches, the piston rod must be moved several
centimetres away from the position to be set.

Factory setting:
The limit switches have been preset to the dimensions defined in the order con-
firmation.

If other dimensions are required, they can be readjusted within the permissible
adjusting range as described below.

25
Installation

The adjusting screws are in the end cover on the housing side.

1. Carefully remove the locking frame (not applicable if "Rotary knob" option is
used).
2. Move the piston rod a few centimetres away from the targeted limit switch
position.
3. Adjust the limit switch (+/-).(see Tab. 8 "Setting for adjusting screw 1" and
Tab. 9 "Setting for adjusting screw 2").
4. Move the drive back to the limit switch.
5. Repeat the process until the desired dimension is reached.
6. Secure the locking frame again (not applicable if "Rotary knob" option is
used).
Rotary knob option: The rotary knobs are self-latching and have to be pushed
in direction end cover to make the adjustment. The adjustment must be made
when the knob is pressed in. It is not necessary to remove the end cover when
adjusting the rotary knobs.

4.4.3 Operation of unit

CAUTION
Damage to the device due to wrong operation.
• The thermal protection switch must not be used as a regular overload swit-
ching device.
• Fast polarity reversal of the traversing direction of the drive is not permissi-
ble.
• The drive must come to a complete standstill before changing the direction of
movement (for version with rated voltage 230 V 1 AC, 50 Hz)..
