Compact
Actuator (DRL Series) Installation
Installing
an Actuator
- Insert the pilot located on the actuator mounting
surface into the metal plate's countersunk hole
or through-hole.
- Insert the actuator to a rigid metal plate (with
a thickness of 0.2 inch (5mm) or more), using
mounting bolts. A mounting plate (model: PATP-)
is available as an accessory.
|
|
There
are three ways of mounting an actuator to device.
|
Using
Mounting Taps of an Actuator
|
 |
Using
a Mounting Plate (Accessory)

Installation
Conditions
Install the actuator in a place satisfying
the following conditions, or the product may be damaged. |
- Inside an enclosure installed indoors (with
ventilation holes provided)
- Ambient temperature: 32°F to 104°F (0°C
to +40°C) [nonfreezing]
- Ambient humidity: 85% or less (no condensation)
- Free of explosive, or toxis gases (sulfide gas,
etc.) or liquids.
- Not exposed to direct sunlight.
- Not exposed to significant amounts of dust or
iron powder.
- Not exposed to water (rain, water droplets)
, oil (oil droplets) or other liquids.
- Not exposed to air having a high salt content
- Not subject to continuous vibration or excessive
shock.
- Not subject to significant electromagnetic noise
caused by welding machines, power equipment, etc.
- Not exposed to radioactive materials, magnetic
fields or vacuum conditions.

Anti-spin
Mechanism
The
moving part of the standard motor does not have
an anti-spin mechanism. Always provide an external
anti-spin mechanism, such as a guide for positioning
operation. In addition, make sure the load is supported
with a linear guide, etc. |

 |
Installing
a Load
| Standard
Type |
 |
|
1.
Retract the screw shaft until it stops at the set
collar
2.
Holding the flat section of the screw shaft with
a wrench, affix the load with a screw (or nut, in
the case of the DRL28).

Installation
Accuracy
When
connecting a load, ensure the installation accuracy
specified below. Poor installtion accuracy may result
in a malfunction or shortened service life.

|
When
using load-mounting taps on the screw-shaft side
Install the load using load-mounting taps on the
L-shaped bracket and the appropriate bolts (not
supplied).


|
|
When
using load-mounting taps on the linear-guide side
Install the load using load-mounting taps on the
L-shaped bracket and appropriate bolts (not supplied).


|
- When
installing a load to the guide type, do not disconnect
the ball screw from the L-shaped bracket. This may cause
an offset when assembling, resulting in malfunction.
- Do
not apply an overhung load to the L-shaped bracket of
the guide type. Also, do not apply an inertial load
to the L-shaped bracket of the DRL28 guide actuator.
Doing so may result in a malfunction or shortened service
life.
- When
transporting, remove the load installed to the actuator,
or damage may be caused to the equipment.
