Mounting arm tube installation
The control panel is designed for integration into a 48 mm mounting arm tube system. You can install the mounting arm tube either before or after installing the mounting arm adapter. The mounting procedure is the same in both cases.
You can either order a tube holder with a 48 mm tube already welded on from Beckhoff or a tube holder where you have to weld the tube yourself (see chapter 4.2 Mounting).
Regardless of which tube holder you have selected, you must mount the holder with the mounting arm tube on the mounting arm adapter as follows:
- 1. Pull the two O-rings onto the designated position on the tube holder (section A).
- 2. Brush the area marked in red with the assembly grease supplied (section A).
- 3. Remove the four M4 screws from each of the two side covers (section B).
- 4. Remove both side covers (section B).
- 5. Insert the mounting arm holder with the tube into the mounting arm adapter (section C).
- 6. Grease the set screw with the supplied assembly grease and insert it into the mounting arm adapter (section C).
- 7. Screw the side covers into place with a tightening torque of 1 Nm (section D).
- You have installed the mounting arm tube on the mounting arm adapter.
For more information on the assembly grease, please refer to the data sheet for the product ÄRO FOODgrease 2200 on the website of the manufacturer Äronix Spezialschmierstoffe.
