CAUTION
When not using NAKANISHI Air Line Kit, make sure that the incoming air supply is dry, clean
and properly regulated.

CAUTION
・
The Air input joint
⑦
, is designed to accept cooling air between 0.25 - 0.3MPa (36.3 - 43.5psi).
If the air pressure is too low, the CONTROLLER will not operate and an Error code will be
generated.
・
The cooling air also provides air purge protection to the motor spindle. If the Main Power
Switch
⑨
is turned OFF, the cooling air will continue to
À
ow. When using the CONTROLLER
and SELECTOR without supplying cooling air, change setting parameter
"
Setting Air
Input Monitoring Override " to ON. Never spray coolant directly on the spindle body without an
air purge.
・
When using the SELECTOR, do not use Air input Joint
⑦
nor Air Output Joint
⑧
of the
CONTROLLER. Install the provided Air Plug ((
₥
6) for air stop) for safety and dust proo
¿
ng to Air
Input Joint
⑦
and Air Output Joint
⑧
. The Air Input can be directly connected to the SELECTOR.
・
Do not make any sharp bends in the air hose, or pull on the hose as this can cause the hose to
break, cut off the air supply or weaken the hose over time resulting in deterioration of the motor
and spindle.
・
Attach the provided Connector Cover for safety and dust proo
¿
ng when not using the External
Input / Output Connector A
③
, B
④
, or Serial I / F Connector
⑤
of the CONTROLLER.
・
Never supply over regulated air pressure. There is a possibility to damage to the air detection
sensor inside the CONTROLLER.
・
The air detect function within the CONTROLLER detects air input supply only. If the Air Out hose
is damaged from the CONTROLLER, it will not be able to detect the lack of cooling and purging
air to the motor spindle.
