INTRODUCTION The PneuTorque PTS series are non-impacting, air driven power tools designed for applying torque to threaded fasteners. Remote control versions have no direction/shut-off control on the tool but rely on external pneumatic circuitry (not provided) to provide this function. This opens up numerous application possibilities for the PneuTorque ranging from simple stall shut-off in a hazardous working environment to sophisticated, multi-spindle torque and angle shut-off systems. Together with the external pneumatic circuitry an external pressure regulator (Lubro Control Unit) is needed; this allows the air pressure to be adjusted to determine the stall torque from the graph provided. There are models to cover torque capacities of 500 Nm to 7,000 Nm. Also available with Auto Two Speed gearbox to increase free run speed. The PTS must always be operated with the following:

Filtered dry air supply. Minimum recommended compressor rating: 6.9 bar (100 psi), 19 l/s (40 CFM).

Lubro Control Unit or similar Filter, Regulator and Lubricator Unit Bore (12 mm).

Impact or high quality sockets. Parts Included

SET UP INSTRUCTIONS 1. Torque Reaction The reaction plate is used to take the torque reaction force (which is equal and opposite to the tool output) and can also be used to mount the tool.

NOTE: The remote control tools are not supplied with a reaction plate/bar as standard. Norbar offer several types of reaction bar (like the double-sided reaction plate shown in Figure 4) and weld rings (figure 3) which allow users to integrate the reaction spline into their own custom reaction solutions. Alternatively, contact Norbars Engineer-to-Order team for a bespoke design and quotation for a reaction solution.

The conventional way to retain the tool within the reaction spline is via the circlip which locates in the groove at the front of the spline feature. If using a conventional reaction bar: It is essential that the reaction plate rests squarely against a solid object or surface adjacent to the fastener to be tightened. The contact area must be within the shaded area of Figure 5, with the contact area as large as possible.

WARNING: CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THAT THE REACTION PLATE IS ONLY USED WITHIN THE LIMITATIONS SHOWN IN FIGURE 5.

For special applications or where extra length sockets must be used, the standard arm may be extended but only within the limitations shown on Figure 5.

WARNING: FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE LIMITATIONS SHOWN IN FIGURE 5 WHEN

MODIFYING STANDARD REACTION PLATES MAY RESULT IN PREMATURE WEAR OR DAMAGE TO THE TOOL.

Standard drive square extensions MUST NOT be used as these will cause serious damage to the tool output drive. A range of nose extensions is available for applications where access is restricted. These are designed to support the final drive correctly. When the PneuTorque is in operation the reaction plate rotates in the opposite direction to the output drive square and must be allowed to rest squarely against a solid object or surface adjacent to the bolt to be tightened. (See Figure 6).

WARNING: ALWAYS KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF THE REACTION PLATE WHEN THE TOOL IS IN USE OR SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT.

2. Air Lubrication

The tool must be used with oil lubrication in the supplied air. This is achieved by using a Lubro Control Unit (not supplied). Set the air lubrication:

a. Fill Lubro Control Unit with appropriate air-tool grade oil.

b. Ensure the tool drive is free to rotate.

c. Run the tool adjust the tool to max pressure according to the setting data.

d. Adjust Lubrication Unit to supply 4 drops of oil per minute. See Lubro Control Unit Operators Manual for more details. 3. Tool Control Systems The remote control air motor requires a separate external pneumatic circuit (not supplied) for on/off and clockwise / anticlockwise control of the tool. The direction of tool rotation is determined by pressurising either the clockwise or anti-clockwise air inlet ports. A Lubro Control Unit (Part Number 16074 - not supplied) is required to lubricate the air and control the air pressure so the correct torque is applied. Check the oil level in the Lubro Control Unit and fill to the correct level. Ensure air hoses are clean and free from dirt before connecting. The air supply hoses and control valves must be bore (12mm) and the hose from the supply to the control system must not be longer than 5 metres or the tools performance will be impaired. If the supply hose must be longer than 5 metres then bore must be used. Examples of pneumatic control circuits are shown in Figures 7 and Figure 8.

5. Exhaust Port The exhaust port, located under the tool, is common to both inlet ports. If required an exhaust hose can be connected, this will reduce the sound pressure level. The exhaust hose size must not be reduced from (19mm) or the tool performance will be reduced. TIP: As with any pneumatic tool a fine oil mist is present in the exhaust air. Please ensure the

exhaust air cannot cause a hazard.

6. Setting Torque to Tighten Fastener The torque created by the PneuTorque depends on the air pressure setting. All tools are supplied with setting data that gives the air pressure required to produce the correct torque output. Set the torque output as follows:

i) Use the setting data (supplied) to find the air pressure to achieve the required torque.

ii) With the tool running, adjust the Lubro Control Unit (not included) until the correct air pressure is shown on the gauge.

IMPORTANT: THE TOOL MUST BE FREE RUNNING WHILE ADJUSTING

THE AIR PRESSURE TO GIVE THE CORRECT SETTING. IMPORTANT: CHECK THAT THE LUBRO CONTROL UNIT IS SUPPLYING

APPROXIMATELY FOUR DROPS OF OIL PER MINUTE WHILE THE TOOL IS FREE RUNNING.

TIP: If unable to release the fastener, increase the air pressure to the tool. Do not exceed the

maximum air pressure.

TIP: In the event that lubrication fails and / or contaminated air (e.g. water) enters the tool it is strongly recommended that the tool is free run on a clean, dry and lubricated air supply for several minutes.

WARNING: EXCEEDING THE MAXIMUM AIR PRESSURE WILL CAUSE OVERLOADING AND MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS DAMAGE.

5. Remove tool from fastener.

16

MAINTENANCE For optimum performance and safety, regular tool maintenance is required. The user maintenance is limited to the replacement of the drive square and the silencers. Any other maintenance or repairs should be carried out by Norbar or a Norbar approved distributor. Maintenance intervals will depend on the tool usage and the environment in which it is being used:

The maximum recommended service and recalibration interval is 12 months OR 10,000 cycles, whichever occurs first.

If tool exhibits abnormal performance please contact your Norbar approved distributor. TIP: Steps the user can take to reduce the amount of maintenance required include:

1. Use the tool in a clean environment. 2. Use an air compressor fitted with a dryer. 3. Ensure the Lubro Control Unit has sufficient air-tool grade oil. 4. Ensure the Lubro Control Unit delivers air-tool grade oil at the correct rate. 5. Ensure the Lubro Control Unit is regularly maintained, see product manual. 6. Maintain the correct torque reaction. 7. In the event that lubrication fails and / or contaminated air (e.g. water) enters the tool it is

strongly recommended that the tool is free run on a clean, dry and lubricated air supply for several minutes.

8. Prior to long periods of storage it is strongly recommended that the tool is free run on a clean, dry and lubricated air supply for several minutes.

WARNING: GLOVES SHOULD BE WORN FOR MAINTENANCE TO AVOID CONTACT WITH GREASE AND OIL.

Air Lubrication Use appropriate air-tool grade oil (for example Shell Tellus S2 V15). Gearbox The gearbox is not user-serviceable. For more information on gearbox servicing please contact Norbar or your Norbar approved distributor. Silencer The PTS Remote silencer (#28704) is intended to last the lifetime of the tool (under optimum operating conditions). However, in adverse operating conditions a replacement is recommended if the user experiences a loss of tool performance. If silencer (#28704) needs replacing, simply unscrew exhaust port and refit with a new part.

17

Drive Square

To avoid internal damage (especially due to torque overload), the output drive square has been designed to shear first. This saves major internal damage and allows easy square removal. For drive square part numbers see page 8.

To replace drive square: 1. Remove the air supply. 2. Support the tool. 3. Remove the screw, then remove drive square. If the square has sheared it may be necessary to use pliers to remove the broken parts. 4. Fit new drive square. 5. Fit new screw and tighten between 4 Nm to 5 Nm (for PTS-52) or 8 Nm to 9 Nm

(for PTS-68/72/80/92/119). 6. Connect air supply. TIP: If the drive square fails continually then seek advice from Norbar or a Norbar approved

distributor. Calibration To maintain the PneuTorque accuracy it is recommended the tool is recalibrated every 10,000 cycles or annually, whichever comes first.
