4-10 Operation
Pneumatic Regulators and Gauges
The Axiom X-1000 Dispensing System has Pneumatic Regulators and Gauges that control the air for the
following systems:
• Main Air
• Fluid
• Dispensing Valve [Operation and Cooling (DJ-9000)]
• Tooling (if applicable)
• Impingement Heaters (if applicable)
The Main Air Pressure Regulator and Gauge set is located on the back panel at the right rear of the
dispensing system as shown in Figure 4-6. The Fluid, Valve, and Tooling Regulators and Gauges are
located inside the lower front cabinet under the keyboard tray (see Figure 4-7). The Impingement Air Shutoff
Valve and Flowmeters are also in the lower front cabinet. The function and operation of these air
pressure/flow control devices are explained in the following paragraphs. Recommended pressure settings
are provided in Table 4-5.

Comments
Main Air Pressure Regulator 620.5 kPa (90 psi) Facility pressure is 586 to 620 kPa
(85 to 90 psi).
Fluid Air Pressure Regulator 206.8 to 275.7 kPa
(30 to 40 psi)
Depends on fluid being dispensed
and Dispensing Valve being used.
Refer to the manual applicable to the
Dispensing Valve on your system.

X-1010: 413.6 kPa (60 psi)
X-1020: 275.7 kPa (40 psi)
--
Valve Air Pressure Regulator 482.6 kPa (70 psi), approximate Depends on Dispensing Valve used.
Refer to the manual applicable to the
Valve on your dispensing system.
Cooler Air Pressure (X-1020) 413.6 kPa (60 psi) Used with the DJ-9000 Series Valve
only.
Impingement Flowmeters 113 L/min. (4.0 SCFM) maximum Depends on the design of the
Impingement Heater.
Main Air Regulator
The Main Air Pressure Regulator (Figure 4-6) is a combination filter and Regulator with an attached pressure
gauge that provides clean, dry, regulated air pressure to the dispensing system from your facility air source.
The Gauge indicates the regulated air pressure going into the system.
