Introduction and Warnings
MAP-180 is a pneumatic magnet meant for attaching ferromagnetic parts in lifting, work holding or
automation applications. The magnet’s state, attached or detached, is changed pneumatically.
MAP-180 pneumatic magnet doesn’t need pressurized air to keep its state. Air pressure is needed
only to change the state from attached to detached or vice versa.
Please read this manual carefully before deployment to ensure safe use of the device.
This device includes a source of magnetic field. A fluctuating magnetic field is produced
during the use in the proximity of the device.
The magnets of the lifting beam produce magnetic fields that may interfere with medical
devices such as metallic implants or cardiac pacemakers. Refrain from using the lifting
beam and keep out of close proximity unless you have approval from the manufacturer of
your medical device or from your physician.
Do not disassemble or replace the device parts. Only pneumatic connectors are user
changeable.
The device must not be used for lifting or transporting people.
Always pay special attention to the factors that may decrease the holding force of the
magnet.
The permitted holding force must not be exceeded.
Do not operate a damaged or malfunctioning device.
The designer and manufacturer of the whole system should always ensure that the system
