Intended use
The EP converter EP10000000R is a precision electronic pressure regulator which provides an
output pressure that is proportional to a given control signal.
It is intended for pneumatic applications where fi ne control of air pressure, or regular automated
pressure changes are required
WARNING!
Dangerous if misued!
Incorrect use of a proportional control valves can create dangerous situation
Do not use in areas where an explosive atmosphere may be present
general dangers
The following section lists residual risks which may be present even if the safety valves are used
correctly
WARNING!
Danger of injury caused by compressed air!
Compressed air can cause injuries if not handled correctly
Ensure system are depressurised before work begins
Have all work carried out by pneumatics specialists
WARNING! Personal requirement
Danger of injury caused by lack of training!
People who lack propoer training cannot assess the risk when handling the
proportional pressure control valves and they place others at risk of serious injury or death
Have all work on the pneumatic system carried out by pneumatics specialists
Have all electrical installation work carried out by qualified electricians
specialized operators
Pneumatics specialists are trained for the specialist area they work in, and they know the relevant
standards and regulations. Because of their special training and experience, pneumatics specialists
can carry out work on pneumatic, electropneumatic and mechatronic systems and identify and
avoid risks by themselves.
Because of their specialist training, knowledge and experience, and their knowledge of the
relevant standards and regulations, qualifi ed electricians are able to carry out work on
electrical installations and identify and avoid possible risks by themselves.
Qualified electricians are specially trained for the area they work in, and they know the relevant
