The Table can be used as follows:
If you are using only one motor with each air treatment unit and valve,
simply follow the table. If you are using more than one motor with
the same air treatment unit: read the table values for selecting the
air treatment unit and add them together, and select a suitable air
treatment unit from the table showing air flows per treatment unit. Then
read the values for selecting the valve from the bottom of the table, and
select a suitable valve from the table showing air flows per valve family.
The air treatment units have the following flows in Nl/Min at 7.5
bar supply pressure and 0,8 bar pressure drop

The air supplying the motor must be filtered and regulated. Directional
valves are needed to control the pressurized air which will cause the
motor to rotate. These valves can be equipped with several means of
actuation, such as electric, manual or pneumatic control. When the
motor is used in a non-reversible application, it is sufficient to use a
2/2 or 3/2 valve for supply. Either one 5/3 or two 3/2 valves are needed
for a reversible motor, to ensure that the motor gets its compressed
air and the residual outlet is vented. A flow control can be installed in
the inlet pipe to regulate the motor speed if the motor is not used as a
reversible motor. One flow control with by-pass is needed to regulate
each direction of rotation if the motor is used as a reversible motor.
The built-in check valve will then allow air from the residual air outlet to
escape through the outlet port in the control valve.
The compressed air supply must have sufficiently large pipes and
valves to give the motor maximum power. The motor needs 6 bar at
the supply port all the time. A reduction of pressure to 5 bar reduces
the power developed to 77%, and to 55% at 4 bar.
Choice of Components for Air Supply
Since the supply pressure at the air motor inlet port is of considerable
importance for obtaining the power, speed and torque quoted in the
catalog, the recommendations below should be observed.
The following data must be complied with:
Supply pressure to air treatment unit: Min 7.5 bar
Gauge pressure: 6.7 bar
Pipe length between air treatment unit and valve: Max. 1 m
Pipe length between valve and air motor: Max. 2 m
The pressure drop through air treatment unit - pipe -
valve - pipe means that 6 bar pressure is obtained at the
motor inlet port.
Please refer to the correction diagram on page K5, which shows what
lower supply pressure means for power, speed and torque.
