Introduction
The pneumatic vibration isolation system is an ideal work platform for equipment, which is
sensitive to vibration, e.g. microscopes, scales, interferometers, and similar devices.
The work surface of the table is separated from the floor by means of a highly effective system
of pneumatic supports.
The system features solid and light optical tables of different sizes, which enable the production
of a wide selection of systems for a variety of tasks requiring different sizes and loads

Fig. 1. Specification of 1VIS10
A specification of a pneumatic support is presented in fig. 1.
Although each support is intended for a load of up to 160 kg, you should prevent overloads of
the table at the edges, otherwise any one pneumatic support may become overloaded even if the total
weight fits within the limits set. Loads with the centre of gravity located very high may result in
instability of the entire system. Please refer to section 3.2 of the manual.
The system is managed by means of level controls; there are 3 controls per system. Please see
fig. 3.
