 Precautions for design
！ WARNING
① External parts including the bonnet, handle, cover (Material: polyacetal) are made of resin.
Organic solvents including synthetic fluid, chemicals including acetone, alcohol, ethylene
chloride, sulphuric acid, nitrate, hydrochrolic acid, cutting oil, kerosene, gasoline, lock
material of screw are harmful. Do not use the regulator where containing those.
② Consult SMC if no leakage is allowed due to the environment, or operating fluid is not air.
③ Protect from ultra violet ray and radiation heat by shield.
④ A safety device needs to be installed if output pressure is exceeding the set pressure,
otherwise this can cause the breakage of outlet device and equipment or malfunction.

！ CAUTION
① The use outside specifications is prohibited.
② Air consumption from release port is 0.1L/min(ANR) or less.
Selection
！ WARNING
① Mineral grease used on internal surfaces and packing may leak to the outlet. Please
contact SMC if this is a problem.
② Long absence of operation or operation with outlet circuit sealed or balance circuit may
cause pressure fluctuation in outlet set pressure. Please consult SMC if this is a problem.
③ Set pressure of outlet pressure shall be 85% or less of inlet pressure. Pressure over 85%
makes operation susceptible to flow and inlet pressure which lead to cause unstable
operation.
④ Maximum set pressure range in the spec. has margin. Pressure set may be higher than
the maximum value.
⑤ If regulator is used with circuit which requires high exhaust sensitivity or set precision,
please consult SMC.

Installation
！ WARNING
① Connect the regulator ensuring the direction of "1" (IN) and "2" (OUT) for air direction or an
arrow. Wrong connection may cause malfunction.
② Install with enough space around regulator to perform regular maintenance and operation.
The required space is shown on 「11. Dimensions」 (P15).
③ Do not drop nor apply impact during transportation or installation. These lead to cause
precision failure of pressure.
④ Do not install in areas of high humid or high temperature. Or pressure gauge may
malfunction.

Adjustment
！ WARNING
① Adjust the pressure adjusting handle ensuring correct inlet pressure and outlet pressure.
Excessive rotation may cause damage to internal parts.
② Operate the pressure adjusting handle manually. Tools may break the handle.
！ CAUTION
① Check inlet pressure before setting up.
② Be sure to unlock the handle before adjusting the pressure and lock it after setting the
pressure. Failure to follow this procedure can damage the handle and the outlet pressure
may fluctuate.
・Pull the pressure regulator handle to unlock. (You can visually verity this with the "orange
mark" that appears in the gap.)

3
 ・Push the pressure regulator handle to lock. When the handle is not easily locked, turn it left
and right a little and then push it. (When the handle is locked, the "orange mark", i.e., the
will disappear.)
③ For the regulator with the pressure gauge, do not apply pressure exceeding the maximum
scale of the pressure gauge in order to protect the gauge.
④ Adjust pressure incrementally. Pressure may become lower than set pressure if adjusted by
decreasing the value. Rotate the handle clockwise to raise the set pressure.
Counterclockwise to reduce the pressure. Moreover, please lock the handle after setting
pressure.
⑤ Outlet pressure may rise if eliminate the inlet pressure after pressure setting and supply
pressure again. The pressure becomes close to the set pressure after air is consumed in
outlet.
⑥ Outlet pressure may change if regulator is used for long periods. Please confirm set pressure
regularly.
Piping
！ WARNING
① Blow out or clean piping before piping to eliminate swarf, cutting oil, solid foreign material.
Contamination of piping may cause damage or malfunction.
② When installing piping, avoid chips and sealing materials from piping screws entering the
inside of equipment. Or malfunction may occur. When use sealing tapes, leave 1.5～2
threads of the end of thread exposed.
③ Hold the female screw side and screw in piping with recommended tightening torque.
Insufficient tightening torque lead to cause loose piping or sealing failure. Excessive torque
may lead to cause screw breakage. Tightening without holding female screw side applies
excessive force to the piping bracket which lead to cause breakage.

④ Do not apply any torsional moment, or bending moment except the weight of the regulator
itself. External piping needs to be supported separately. Hard piping like steel tube is
susceptible to excessive moment load or vibration. Insert the flexible tube to cancel the
influence.

Air Source
！ WARNING
① Use clean air. Compressed air containing chemicals, organic solvent, synthetic oil or corrosive
gas may lead to cause breakage of parts or malfunction.
② Air containing too much moisture may cause malfunction. Install the air drier or the aftercooler
before the regulator.

Maintenance
！ WARNING
① Maintenance and checks should be done by following the procedure in the operation manual.
Incorrect handling of the product may cause breakage or malfunction of the equipment or
device.

！ CAUTION
① If the first operation is performed and defective setting and the exhaust leakage is found, it is
likely there is foreign object in an internal valve sliding surface or an internal valve seat part.
Failure to remove these parts may cause damage to internal parts.
