Before using the ISCO device, be sure to read the "Safety Instructions", "Common Safety Instructions for roducts Listed in This Manual" on page 13 to 15 and "Common Safety Instructions for Solenoid Valve" on page 108. Warning : 1. Where the Solenoid Valve is used with vibration of 5G or below, install it in such a way that the direction of vibration is perpendicular to the spool valve. * See the following illustration : 1. When the valves are used as Valve Manifold, back pressure can cause malfunction of the actuator (single acting cylinder, etc.). In such a case, provide a check valve to exhaust port. 2. Do not use a 3-position valve for middle stop of the cylinder that requires accuracy. Compressiveness of air may not allow accuracy in stop position. lso, the valve permits leakage, so that the stop position may not remain constant for a long time. 3. Do not give excessive tension or bending to the individual plug-in connector (cable). Disconnection or damage to the connector may result. 4. 24VDC specifications. s a countermeasure against surges, this valve is equipped with surge absorbers as standard. However, since surges cannot be completely absorbed, care should be taken to prevent them. 5. When manual cover is closed, the manual and lock operation can not be conducted.

Manual operation of the valve can operate the actuator connected to it. Therefore operate after confirming safety. 4. Consult ISCO on applications where power is continuously supplied to the valve for a long time. 5. Be sure to turn off power before installing the wiring. lso pay special attention to wire colors in wiring. 6. You can use these valves without lubrication. When you lubricate, however, use Turbine Oil Class 1 (ISO VG 32). Once you start the habit of lubrication, do not stop it. Otherwise the initial lubricant will be lost, thus causing malfunction. 7. Before wiring, check the ports of the valve by the marking on the body. 8. For maintenance or checks, turn off power, stop air supply and make certain that the pressure inside the piping has become zero. With the 3-position all port block type, watch out for the air remaining between valve and cylinder. 9. With the manifold having a silencer, clogging of the element raises the resistance to exhaust, thus lowering the performance of the system as a whole. Therefore conduct periodic maintenance and checks. 108
