3.3 Installing the Sensor to the Robot
Parts required: Refer to Figure 3.3 and Section 14—Drawings .
Tools required: 4 mm hex wrench
Supplies required: Clean rag, Loctite
®
242 (if applicable, refer to step 3 and 4 )
1. Clean the mounting surfaces.
2.
Attach the mounting interface plate to the robot arm with the mounting fasteners.
3.
Attach the sensor to the mounting interface plate.
• Screws to have a minimum thread engagement length of 4.5 mm with a maximum thread
engagement less than the threaded depth listed in the customer drawing Section 14—Drawings .
• If the sensor is to be used in a high-vibration environment, Loctite 242 should be applied to the (6)
M5 socket head cap screws, class 12.9 so that the fasteners secure the sensor to the mounting plate.
a.
Using a 4 mm hex wrench, secure the sensor to the mounting interface plate with (6) M5 socket
head cap screws, class 12.9. Tighten to 52 in-lbs (5.88 Nm).
4.
Once the sensor is installed on the robot, the customer tooling or tool interface plate can be installed.
•
Screws to have a minimum thread engagement length of 4.5 mm with a maximum thread
engagement less than the threaded depth listed in the customer drawing Section 14—Drawings .
• If the sensor is to be used in a high-vibration environment, Loctite 242 should be applied to the (6)
M5 socket head cap screws, class 12.9 so that the fasteners secure the sensor to the mounting plate.
NOTICE: The tool must not touch any other part of the sensor except the tool side; otherwise,
the sensor will not properly detect loads.
5. Connect the cable(s) to the sensor and customer application.
a.
Connect a power and Ethernet cable (ATI P/N 9105-C-ZC22-ZC26-X) to the sensor’s M8
connector. Tighten to 4.43 in-lbs (0.5 Nm).
b.
Connect the branched cable (ATI P/N 9105-C-ZC26-U-RJ45S-X) to the cable from step
a . Tighten
to 7.08 in-lbs (0.8 Nm).
c.
Connect the RJ45 and power connections to the customer application. Refer to
Section 10.2.1—
LED Self-Test Sequence
for the LED outputs that occur whenever power is supplied to the sensor.
6.
Properly restrain and route the power and Ethernet cable; refer to Section 3.2—Routing the Cable .
7.
After installation is complete, the sensor is ready for an accuracy check as described in Section 3.6—
Accuracy Check Procedure and then for normal use.
