3200SS

Model 1500SS Control Package

The same as the Model 3200SS Control System with the listed included components:

Dual Solenoid Valve

Dual Solenoid Valve No. 303A

The No. 303A dual solenoid valve is monitored and contains a pressure controlled spool in an assembly mounted between the pilot and valve body assemblies. Pressure signals are applied to each end of the monitor spool. If these signals differ by more than a built-in design limit, they cause the spool to shift to a latched position. The spool movement causes the pilots to be exhausted and pilot supply air to be vented to the atmosphere, thus rendering the valve inoperable. The monitor must be reset by unlatching the spool before another valve cycle can be initiated.

Operator Station

Operator Station No. UL-501

No. UL-501 Two UltraTouch modules mounted on a NEMA 12 operator station run bar with a red mushroom emergency stop button located in the center and a yellow mushroom top stop button located off center. This style assembly is ideal for the metal stamping/metal fabrication industry. All the modules are mounted in accordance to OSHA, ANSI, and CSA standards in regards to run button spacing.

Heavy Duty Pressure switch No. 306

Heavy Duty Pressure Switch No. 306

This NEMA 12 oil-tight and dust-tight switch is adjustable from 1 to 115 PSI.

Filter Regulator Lubricator No. 311

Filter Regulator Lubricator No. 311

Rotary Cam 310A

Rotary Cam Switch with Drive Check No. 310A

This NEMA 12 rotary switch provides limit switch functions required by control system. Spring-loaded mounting absorbs shock and will stop the press should the drive chain break. Cams are easily adjusted with tool provided.
