How to assemble the module

Assembly precautions

<div class="ico_caution">When assembling, pay attention to the direction of fluid supply. (supply side → output side)</div>

• Modular basic order : filter → regulator → lubricator
• When assembling multiple filters, assemble them in order from the largest to the smallest.
  e.g. KAF(5 μm) → KAFM(0.3 μm) → KAFU(0.01 μm)

1. Fasten the seal in the seal fastening groove between the products to be assembled or by using a spacer.
   Seal fastening groove : 301 body
   Spacer attach : 101, 201, 401, 601 body
2. After positioning both products, fix the front and rear module brackets.
3. Assemble the bracket fixing bolts from the front to the rear side of the bracket.

Installation and disassembly

Precautions before installation

<div class="ico_danger">Installation and disassembly of a pressurized product may cause personal injury and/or property damage.</div>

<div class="ico_danger ico_2ndline">Before installation, be sure to release the pressure inside the product and piping.</div>

• Ensure free space around the product for maintenance and safe operation.
• Do not install in a location with high humidity or temperature. Doing so may cause performance degradation or malfunction.
• Avoid dropping and external impacts when transporting and installing the product.
• Connect the pneumatic pipe after completing the installation.
• When connecting only the pneumatic pipe, without a separate mounting device, consider installing a separate pipe support to prevent excessive moment load or vibration on the pipe side. Otherwise, a malfunction or damage may occur.
• Before installing the piping, flush or clean the piping sufficiently to remove any foreign substances. Even when fastening piping or fittings, make sure that chips from the piping screws or sealing material do not move into the machine. These may cause malfunction.

Pneumatic piping

1. Check the flow direction and place the product. Check the IN and OUT or arrows on the product body.
2. Fasten the threaded part of the pipe or fitting to the pneumatic port.
   - Hold the female thread side and apply the proper torque.
   - Insufficient tightening torque may lead to loosening or an improper seal. Excessive tightening torque may cause damage to screws, etc.
3. After completely sealing the pneumatic port, connect the pneumatic tube.

Handling bowl

• In case the bowl is made of polycarbonate, avoid using it in an environment exposed to thinner, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, acetate ester, cyclohexane, sulfuric acid, lactic acid, or other chemicals.

Disassembly

<div class="ico_danger">Before disassembly, be sure to release the pressure inside the product and pipe.</div>

1. Exhaust air from the entire system and product.
2. Press and release the lock on the pipe or fitting, then pull out the hose line.
3. Loosen the fitting on the connecting flange and turn it out.

Maintenance

Air source

• Please use clean air.
• If the compressed air contains chemicals, organic solvents, synthetic oil, or corrosive gas, it may cause damage to parts or malfunction.
• Air containing a large amount of moisture or foreign substances can cause malfunction, so install an air dryer or an after cooler on the inlet side of the product.

Maintenance and inspection

• Regularly inspect the bowl for contamination, cracks, damage, and other deterioration. Use a neutral detergent for cleaning. If the contamination is severe, replacement is recommended.
• In case of cracks, damage, or other deterioration, replace it.

Oil adjustment

• When injecting oil through an open bowl instead of a refueling port, remove the residual pressure inside and then disassemble the bowl.
• Perform adjustment of the oil amount-adjusting valve manually. Excessive external impact due to the use of tools, etc. may cause damage.
• When you rotate to the - or + side of a regulating valve and reach the end, it stops to prevent any further adjustment. At this time, take care not to damage the regulating valve by attempting to rotate it further with excessive force.
• Use clean and pure oil. Failure to do so may cause inadequate loading or clogging.
• Inject oil only up to the maximum oil level of the case.

Cleaning

• Clean the exterior of the product periodically with a soft cloth.
  Allowable detergents : soapy water (maximum 60°C), neutral detergent (without aromatic compounds)
