2.7.1.6 If a flow control valve is used, it must have free flow
(indicated by an arrow on the valve body) directed
away from the element.
2.7.1.7 The final connection to the rotorseal MUST be made
with flexible hose and place no radial load upon the
rotorseal.
Do not use rigid pipe at the connection to the
rotorseal. Rigid piping will result in excessive
loads on the rotorseal bearings, shortening
life.
Maximum applied air pressure is 125 psig
(8.5 bar). Operation at pressures exceeding
125 psig may result in damage to the element.
Consult the factory if operation at pressures
greater than 125 psig is desired.

3.0 OPERATION
Exceeding the operating limits described in
this section may result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
3.1 Torque, RPM and Pressure Limits
3.1.1 The developed torque is directly proportional to the
applied air pressure. If the developed torque seems
inadequate, check for oil, grease or dust contamina-
tion.
Maximum applied air pressure is 125 psig (8.5
bar). Operation at pressures exceeding 125
psig may result in damage to the element.
Consult the factory if operation at pressures
greater than 125 psig is desired.
