The green scale range is the
permissible working range from -0.65 bar to -0.9 bar.
Fig. 8:
Vacuum gauge
During operation the vacuum is monitored by two pressure controllers. If the vacuum is in the
working range in both vacuum circuits, the green signal light is illuminated. The OKTOPUS
®
is ready for use.
If the vacuum decreases impermissibly in one or both vacuum circuits or the pressure rises
above -0.65 bar (red scale range), a warning is triggered automatically:
⇒
alarm buzzer sounds,
⇒
red warning light is illuminated.
Only interconnect vacuum hoses and couplings of the same color! Non-
compliance with these instructions could, in case of a breakdown of a vac-
uum circuit, lead to the load suddenly dropping due to uneven load distri-
bution.
If the alarm is activated, stop working instantly and evacuate the hazard
zone, as the sucked element could disengage suddenly. Never stand or
walk under the OKTOPUS
®
or the suctioned element!
The alarm remains active until the vacuum pressure is restored within its
permitted limits.
3.3 Radio remote control
The OKTOPUS
®
GLASS-Jack GL-CC 1200 is operated with a radio remote control. The
transmitter of the radio remote control is shown in fig. 9.
Radio remote controls are subject to national standards. For this reason,
check if it is permitted to employ the radio unit at the operation site prior to
turning it on. In case of doubt contact the OKTOPUS
®
manufacturer.
Red range
