SP-2000/X-Y AutoCam™ Pedestal - Vinten Radamec

SP-2000/X-YInstallationBalancing The PedestalBalancing can only be done with the full payload mounted.CAUTION: If the payload is changed for any reason, the columnmust be rebalanced.The column balance should be checked daily. If gas needs to be added after abalance check, use the procedure in the previous section.1. Switch the MCB controller to Local mode and twist the joystick to raise thecolumn to approximately the middle of its range. Make sure that all cablesand equipment such as the prompter are in their normal operating positions.2. Twist the MCB joystick to move the column up and down slowly around itsmid point and watch the balance meter on the rear panel of the pedestal.Balance Meter3. If the column is balanced, the meter deflection will be equal in both directions.If the deflection is greater when the column is raised, the pressure istoo low and gas should be added (use step 4). If the deflection is greaterwhen the column is lowered, the pressure is too high and gas should be discharged(use step 5).4. Briefly open the main valve on the gas tank to add gas and then recheckbalance. Continue adding a little gas at a time until balance is achieved. Goto Finishing Up.5. Briefly open the Purge Valve on the manifold to release a little gas and thenrecheck balance. Continue releasing a little gas at a time until balance isachieved. Go to Finishing Up.3-14 User Manual
