Delay_System

12 The Special Springs system has been designed so as to force the hydraulic fluid – during the compression phase – to flow from the cylinders through the pressure-reducing valve and proceed at low pressure into the command unit. For functional reasons, the pressure-reducing valve has been integrated into the distribution unit which is always mounted on the tool. The connection between distribution and command unit is provided by two flexible hose pipes with quick coupling connectors of different sizes. Such a solution ensures that making the tool fully operative again is an extremely fast and safe process which does not require any new system calibrations. Note: Provided it has the required characteristics, a command unit can be connected to different tools. In such a case, it is necessary to check and re-adjust the system calibration values before each use. • Connection with manifold plate The cylinders are interconnected and mounted directly on the plate which features pre-designed pipes for the fluid to flow through. Such a solution has the following advantages: it uses less space on the tool; leaks are less likely to occur; it provides a cleaner operational environment: there are no hose pipes inside the tool. CONNECTING OPTIONS • Mixed connection Cylinder groups are mounted and interconnected through specific plates which are individually connected to the distribution unit.
