Recommended Pneumatic Circuit
Speed is controlled by meter-out circuit. Using concurrently the 
meter-in circuit can alleviate the stick-slip. More stable low speed 
operation can be achieved than meter-in circuit alone.
Warning
Dual speed controller
Horizontal Operation
1
Meter-in speed controllers can reduce lurching while controlling 
the speed. The two adjustment needles facilitate adjustment.

Selection Pneumatic Circuit
Caution Caution
1. Operate within the standard strokes.
Operating with the stroke exceeding the standard stroke may 
cause malfunction.
2. Provide a construction that does not apply a lateral 
load to the cylinder.
Applying a lateral load to the cylinder may cause malfunction.
3. Do not use the product at a high frequency.
Use it at 30 cpm or less as a guideline.
4. Do not wipe out the grease in the sliding part of the 
air cylinder.
Doing so forcefully may cause malfunction.
1. The piping length between the speed controller and 
the cylinder port must be kept as short as possible.
If the speed controller and the cylinder port are far apart, 
speed adjustment may be unstable.
2. Use a low speed controller to easily adjust for low 
speed operation or a dual speed controller (Series 
ASD) to prevent cylinders from popping out.
(When the low speed controller is used, the maximum speed 
may be limited.)
Low Speed Cylinder
Specific Product Precautions
Be sure to read before handling.
Refer to front matters 42 and 43 for Safety Instructions and pages 3 to 11 for Actuator 
and Auto Switch Precautions.

(1) Speed is controlled by meter-out circuit. Using concurrently 
the meter-in circuit can alleviate the stick-slip.
∗
(2) Depending on the size of the load, installing a regulator with 
check valve at position (b) can deduce lurching during 
descent and operation delay during ascent.
As a guide,
when W + P
0a>P0A,
adjust P
1 to make W + P1a = P0A.

Since CJ2X, CUX10 are subject to internal leakage due to their construction, the speed may not be fully controlled with the meter-out controller 
(∗) during low speed operation.
