XT316Air ShockerThe air shocker is a pneumatic piston type shock generatorwhich removes material plugging due to bridging or adhesion ofbulk material inside a hopper or chute.

IP8101 Rotary Smart PositionerThe IP8101 is a rotary type smart positioner that will controlthe accurate positioning of pneumatic cylinders or processvalves. The cylinder or valve can be controlled accurately andmaintain any selected position from fully open to fully closedposition as determined from your control system.

Used extensively in mining and mineral processing, watertreatment, chemical processing, steel processing, and manyother industries the SMC IP8101 positioners are now anindustry standard and mount as a direct upgrade for thecurrent SMC IP6100 positioner.

Easy to set up and program, the positioner can be suppliedindividually or integrated onto process valves and cylindersas a complete solution. SMC has design, manufacturing andtechnical support to develop solutions for most industrialapplications requiring positioners. The positioner can be fittedto a wide range of valves with adaptor brackets and feedbacklinkages already developed for many configurations.

With programming carried out using a three button keypad andan integrated LED display the zero and span setup and otherfeatures have never been easier to access. IP8101 is availablein 4–20mA analog control and also with HART serial protocol.

Where weight is critical in such cases as transport the new CS2 range offers allaluminium tube and end covers. Thisresults in weight savings up to 50% inbore sizes up to 500 mm.

Cylinder mounting options includestandard foot, flange, single or double rearclevis and trunnion mount. Double rodclevis, spherical rod eye or floating jointmounts are available for the piston rod.

The heavy duty CS1 range offersaluminum or steel tube with steel covers.This extremely robust pneumatic cylinderis preferred in mining and resourceindustries with options such as solenoidvalve, position control and feedback ora range of sensors mounted directly tothe cylinder.
