    Laboratory practice #1
    2. Testing all the equipment in the table above
    i) Check the shut-off valve position at the compressor and make it off-position (vertical
    position).
    ii) Switch on the compressor. Observe if the pressure gauge reading is increasing. Wait until the
    compressor switched off automatically and record the pressure reading
    P = ___________
    iii) Read the following note
    The work bench is shown below. The components have a quick connector to fix them on the base
    panel of the workstation. Press the fittings head with your two fingers while you pull or fit the plastic
    tubing from/in the fittings.

    Quick connector ---fixed status

    Quick connector – removal way

    iv) Construct the following circuit on the workbench including manifold and other fittings

    A1 A2 A3

    v) Open the shut-off valve (horizontal position) and record the action of each actuator
    A1: ______________ A2 _________________ A3 __________________

    vi) Take pressure P1 readings at the following points as shown in the Table

    No Readings at P1 P2 Discuss in the readings


    1 Compressor
    2 Air service unit
    3 At the cylinder A1
    4 At the cylinder A3

    vii) Adjust the working pressure to 4bar as shown below and record the pressure P2 readings
    a) Pull over the service unit cover
    b) Rotate forward to add pressure
    c) Reverse rotate to reduce pressure
    d) Normally set the pressure to 4 bar

    viii) Switch of the shut-off valve and construct the circuit shown below

    A2 A3
    A1

    Z2
    Z1

    ix) Record the action of the cylinders and the readings of the manometers

    A1: ____________ A2: _____________ A3: ____________ Z1: ______ Z2: _________

    x) Check the operation of the manifold and the fittings used and write your observation (Be
    careful and Hold firmly the plastic pipe when you remove it from the fittings, as pressurized
    plastic swing wildly)

    xi) Turn-off shut-off valve and the power input then dismantle the circuit and return to their
    place
    xii) Write what you have learnt from this practice and write your observation
