Install Hex Nipple 1/8” (216P-2) to VIAIR Compressor (00090) output port
Connect Union Tee (2203P-2) to Hex Nipple 1/8” (216P-2)
Connect Adapter 1/4” to 1/8” F/M (229-4-2) to Union Tee (2203P-2)
Install Pressure Relief Valve (16-004-011) to the Adapter 1/4" to 1/8” F/M (229-4-2)
Connect Male Connector (W68PLP-4-2) to the final slot on the Union Tee (2203P-2)
Secure all connection points with wrenches
Use PTFE tape on all threaded connections
The final product should look like the image above
The Pressure Relief Valve needs to be calibrated
Attach Male Connector (W68PLP-4-2) to a slot on the Union Tee (2203P-2)
Install Pressure Switch (SM-2B-115R/443) into the middle slot of the Union Tee (2203P-2)
Connect Hex Nipple 1/8” (216P-2) to remaining port on Union Tee (2203P-2)
Connect a different Union Tee (2203P-2) to Hex Nipple 1/8” (216P-2)
Attach Pressure Gauge (18-013-212) to middle port of Union Tee (2203P-2)
Connect Hex Nipple 1/8” (216P-2) to remaining port on Union Tee (2203P-2)
Attach Micro Valve (MV709-2) to the open threads on the Hex Nipple (216P-2)
Secure all connection points with wrenches
Use PTFE tape on all threaded connections
The final product should look like the image above
Install one Male Connector (W68PLP-4-2) into the outlet pressure port of the Pressure Regulator (R07-100RNEA) (designated by a larger port with an arrow pointing away from the regulator)
Install another Male Connector (W68PLP-4-2) into the inlet port of the Pressure Regulator (R07- 100RNEA) (this is the opposite port from the outlet where the other male connector was just installed)
Attach Pressure Gauge (18-013-212) to an open port on the Pressure Regulator (R07-100RNEA)
Plug the remaining port of the Pressure Regulator (R07-100RNEA with the plugs provided or the 1/8” Plug (218P-2) provide in the KOP
The regulator should be mounted using the provided bracket and nut kit
Secure all connection points with wrenches
Use PTFE tape on all threaded connections
The final product should look like the third image above
The regulator needs to be adjusted for a specific pressure by rotating the knob
Attach Elbow Push to Connect fittings (W369PLP-4-2) to both the inlet and outlet pressure port of the actuator
Secure all connection points with wrenches
Use PTFE tape on all threaded connections
Screw in all three push to connect fittings into ports 1, 2 and 4 of the Solenoid Valve (566475)
Connect both wires (566654) to the Electrical Sub Bases (566716)
The final product should look like the bottom image above but not exactly the same
This valve pictured above is a 24 volt solenoid, the same as the one provided in the KOP
The air tank in the KOP uses two push to connect fittings to make attachment easier
NEVER use the air tank outside of operating conditions
Install the air tank on the robot such that it is shielded from impact from other robots
When fastening tank do not over tighten or cause pressure to the outside of the tank
