The linear drive DGC-...-HD is intended for positioning effective
loads with large loads. It is approved for the slide and yoke
operating modes (
observe load limits).
Pressureless movement of the slide is permitted only for fault cor-
rection and at low speed. If excessive speed is used, the resulting
low pressure can pull the sealing band into the piston chamber.
This leads to:
–
high leakage and
–
impermissible acceleration (e.g. with vertical mounting posi-
tion).
