FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
FOREWORD
Porter-Cable Model BN200V12 is a heavy duty, cordless, pneumatic brad
nailer. It is designed to install 18 ga. brad nails of various lengths from
3
/4" to
2". The tool comes equipped with Porter-Cable exclusive Twin Power
Source Technology (TPS)
™,
utilizing a built in, battery powered, air
compressor with Energy Management Control Circuit (Emc²)
™,
or it can be
used with a standard shop air compressor. It also has a user selectable
multi-position switch, built in pressure relief valve, and electronic self
diagnostic LED display. Tool is operational after only five seconds of
pressure build up time and can fire up to one nail per second.
POWER SOURCE
This tool is designed to operate on self contained, battery powered, internal
compressed air or compressed air provided by an External source. A four
position switch is provided for operation settings. Internal air “HIGH” pressure
position set point provides the most power for the most demanding driving
applications. Internal air “NORMAL” pressure position set point provides the
most commonly used power range for most driving applications, and is the
preferred setting for internal compressor cycling and battery life. The “OFF”
position disables the tool and, through internal mechanical linkage, opens the
internal pressure relief valve. As an added safety feature, the tool will
automatically shut off if the pressure relief valve remains open beyond three
minutes or if the tool remains idle for more than two hours. In either case the
switch must be moved to the “OFF” position and then to another setting.
“EXT AIR” (external) provides alternate shop air capability, if desired. If
compressed shop air is used, it needs to be clean, dry, and regulated at
pressures between 70 and 120 PSI (
4.8 to 8.3
BAR) (Pounds per Square
Inch). The shop air system should include a filter, a pressure regulator, and an
automatic oiler located as close to the tool as possible (within 15 feet is ideal).
