1 Compressed air connection
2 Alternative compressed air
3 Air flow
Principle of Operation
The NCT unit works in accordance with the Bernoulli principle, i.e. a vacuum is
created due to the difference in speed for the air flow (3) and the static air.
5 Assembly
Installation requirements
During operation, the "non-contact" transport system only permits a very low
amount of transverse force loads on the component to be moved. Transverse forces
cannot be absorbed if the stops are disassembled. The maximum transverse force
load depends on many basic conditions and must be determined for each specific
application.
NCT-AL: Avoid direct sunlight (UV light) and contact with aggressive cleaning agents.
NCT-PK: This variant is resistant to all common cleaning agents with the usual
concentrations and periods of exposure. Avoid direct sunlight (UV light).
Assembling the NCT unit
Danger due to uncontrolled movements!
If compressed air is connected while the NCT unit is being installed, this can lead
to personal injury or damage to the system.
O Make sure that the relevant part of the system is not under voltage or pressure
while the unit is being installed.
O Make sure that the unit is completely installed before connecting compressed
air.
O Make sure that the compressed air supply cannot be reconnected, if the
system has to be left unattended during installation.
The NCT unit is dimensioned for a particular application. It must never be altered or
modified from its original configuration.
