Assembly 7.7 Sensors The module is prepared for a number of sensors. Other sensors can be used with a mounting kit. • If you require further information on sensor operation, contact your SCHUNK contact person or download information from our homepage. • Technical data for the sensors can be found in the data sheets (included in the scope of delivery). 7.7.1 MMS 22 magnetic switch Fig. 7 NOTICE Sensor can be damaged during assembly. Do not exceed the maximum tightening torque of 10 Ncm for the set screws.
Assembly The proximity switches are electronic components, which can react sensitively to high-frequency interference or electromagnetic fields. 1 Check to make sure that the cable is fastened and installed correctly. Provide for sufficient clearance to sources of highfrequency interference and their supply cables. 2 Parallel switching of several sensor outputs of the same type (npn, pnp) is permissible, but does not increase the permissible load current.
Commissioning 8 Commissioning NOTICE Damage to the rotary module possible! The rotary module can be damaged if it arrives too abruptly in the end position. • The rotary motion must reach the end position without jerk or bounce. • Therefore flow control valves and shock absorbers must be used( 8.1, Page 23),( 8.2, Page 25). • Please observe the diagrams and information in the catalog pages. 8.
Commissioning Fig. 10 NOTE If the speed is too high the shock absorber will be overloaded. Fig. 11 4 Open the exhaust flow control valve until a smooth movement is reached. NOTE In most cases the rotation will still be too slow. Further adjustment and optimization of the swivel time is achieved via adjusting the shock absorber stroke. 24 08.
Commissioning 8.2 Adjustment of the shock absorber stroke NOTE When received from the factory, the unit is set to utilize the maximum shock absorber stroke. Fig. 12 The shock absorber stroke is too long and the end position is reached too slowly. Fig. 13 The shock absorber stroke is too short and the unit arrives in the end position too abruptly. Fig. 14 Optimal shock absorber stroke. 08.
Trouble shooting 9 Trouble shooting 9.1 Module does not move? Possible cause Corrective action Pressure drops below minimum. Check the air supply. ( 7.2, Page 15) Compressed air lines switched Check compressed air lines. ( 7.2, Page 15) Proximity switch defective or set incorrect. Repair the proximity switch. Unused air connections not closed. Close the unused air connections. Flow control valve closed. Open the flow control valve. Component is broken, e.g.
Trouble shooting 9.3 The module rotates abruptly? Possible cause Corrective action Too little grease in the mechanical guiding areas of the module Clean the module and relubricate it. ( 10, Page 28) Compressed air lines are blocked Check the compressed air lines for crushing or damage. Mounting surface is not even enough Check the levelness of the bolting surface. Flow control valve is missing or not set correctly Install and adjust flow control valve.
Maintenance and care 10 Maintenance and care 10.1 Notes DANGER Danger of explosion in explosion risk areas! • Follow the instructions in supplementary sheet "Installation and operating instructions - EX" for modules in explosionresistant versions (EX)! Original spare parts When replacing damaged parts (wearing parts/spare parts) only use SCHUNK original spares. 10.2 Maintenance and lubrication intervals. NOTICE At ambient temperature above 60°C the lubricants can harden faster.
Maintenance and care 10.4 Disassembly of the module Position of the position numbers ( 11, Page 31) WARNING Warning: Risk of injury when the machine/system moves unexpectedly!
