Adjusting the Proximity Targets
Three Points of Adjustment
• Cylinder engagement through setting of Proximity Target
• Rate of application swing by adjusting Hydraulic Flow Control
• Rate of return swing by adjusting Pneumatic Flow Control
Depending on desired performance, the controls will have their own effect on the operation with their adjustment.
1) Cylinder Engagement through Setting of Proximity Target.
Since the “intitial” position has the arms at approximately 17° towards the entrance of the wash, gravity supplies the force
needed to start the arms movement. As the arms approach their vertical (straight up and down) position, the force of
gravity diminishes before this force has completely diminished, the hydraulic cylinder engages. The power of the cylinder
moves the arms to appromately 17° towards the exit of the wash to complete the swing.
