TOGGLE-AIRE®
Model SS-PB
Synchro-Sig Series -
Two Hand, Anti Tie Down Actuators
The Synchro-Sig
Series Model SS-PB Two Hand Actuator is one in a
series of actuators manufactured by AIM-Joraco, for
use on all TOGGLE-AIRE presses and equipment. As is
the case with all of our actuators, it is a direct
replacement for any of the earlier versions of
Synchro-Sig Series units found on our presses.
The SS-PB retrofits to any TOGGLE-AIRE press,
regardless of age, and immediately provides the
operator with a "State of the Art", ergonomically
engineered, anti tie down actuator. The actuating
“buttons” found at each end of the unit must be
simultaneously depressed to provide a signal to your
press. When one or both buttons are released the
output is terminated. Both buttons must then be
totally released before the unit will allow another
signal to the press. The operator's hands remain in
the "neutral" position when cycling the actuator
because the palms of the hand are used to depress the
buttons.
Specifications
& Features
Dimensions:
SS-PB . . .
Enclosure: left to
right: 12", 1.75" front to back, 3.5" top to bottom,
with 18" between the palm balls.
SS-PB-24 .
Enclosure: left to
right: 18", 1.75" front to back, 3.5" top to bottom,
with 24" between the palm balls. The SS-PB and
SS-PB-24 mount directly in place of existing SS units
in exactly the same manner.
Operating Pressure:
50 PSI
Minimum, 125 PSI Maximum. Pneumatic inputs and outputs
connect to your TOGGLE-AIRE press in exactly the same
way as your existing SS unit. Absolutely no
changes are required to the control valving on your
press.
Construction:
The main enclosure
is made of heavy gauge steel, factory sealed to
maintain the integrity of the controls contained
therein. The actuating buttons are permentantly
secured to the enclosure and are not field servicable.
Button Guards:
All SS-PB
units are supplied with an integrated "ring" guard
which isolates the actuating buttons as shown in the
photo above.
Hardware:
Units are
supplied with bulkhead fittings and all necessary
mounting hardware. NOTE : SS-PB units can be
easily mounted in places other than the press platen
if your application or operator safety so demands.
THINK SAFETY - WORK SAFELY
IMPORTANT! All TOGGLE-AIRE® Synchro-Sig Series Actuators, including the Model SS-OT Optical Touch Two Hand Actuator, are designed and sold for use on TOGGLE-AIRE®
and DIRECT-AIRE presses as well as many other types of pneumatic equipment. They are intended as general use cycle initiators, and ARE NOT, in and of themselves safety devices. Because it is impossible to anticipate the conditions under which our equipment will be operated, additional devices and methods may be required to insure operator safety. Besides conforming to all national, state, OSHA, and ANSI standards and codes, the buyer should consider the safety of the entire operation involving any press or machine, and see that any additional guarding, training, and maintenance deemed necessary is developed and enforced to protect the well being of the machine operator. |
