REQUIREMENTS TO PREMISES WHEN INSTALLING ELECTROCHEMICAL MACHINES
Electrochemical machines SFE-5000М, SFE-8000М, SFE-12000М can be installed in any heated room with a level concrete floor.
At the factories such machines are installed in processing lines of tool and machine workshops or in a separate room without any special requirements to operation of metalworking machinery.
It is allowed to install the machine near metal-cutting equipment.
However, it is necessary to prevent metal-cutting chips and abrasive particles from getting into electrolyte of the machine.
The installation of the machine is carried out on a level concrete (cement) floor without any additional requirements.
Requirements to energy carriers and communication lines
Premises where a SFE machine is installed shall be equipped with:
Cooling water parameters in cooling system of a TCS:
- temperature at the inlet of the cooling system is from 274 K (+1°С,) to 298 K (+25° С);
- pressure is from 0,15 MPa to 0,25 MPa;
- flow rate is not less than 0,3 m3/h;
- hardness is not less than 3,563 mg-eq;
- content of non-dissolved sludge is not more than 0,005 mg/l.
Cooling water parameters in cooling system of a pumping station:
- temperature at the inlet of the bath coolant is from 274 K (+1°С,) to 298 K (+25° С);
- pressure at the inlet of the bath coolant is from 0,15 MPa to 0,25 MPa.
In case of absence of the self-contained cooling system a cold water main pipe shall have two valves:
Protection is phase fuse current not less than 100A. External supply-line fuse 125 A. It is not allowed to set energy-intensive loads on the feeder, that can result in voltage fluctuation in the circuit at their switching on/off, which can cause failure of the electrochemical machine operation.
Dimension sizes of SFE electrochemical machines
| Machine model | Length (depth), mm | Width, mm | Height, mm | Weight, kg | Required space, m2 |
| SFE-5000М | 2000 | 1700 | 2050 | 2100 | 3,4 |
| SFE-8000М | 2000 | 1700 | 2050 | 2100 | 3,4 |
| SFE-12000М | 2100 | 1700 | 2100 | 2900 | 3,57 |
When installing any machine model, it is necessary to place it in such a way that there is a pass left not less than 1000 mm from any side, and 1500 mm from the side of the working area.
Additional equipment of an electrochemical machining workshop
When organizing a working area of an operator of the machine, it is necessary to provide a convenient placement of all applied equipment, instruments, blank parts and finished parts, thus it excludes any unnecessary movements.
