Remove a Pallet
1. Open the safety circuit.
2. Install the pallet removal tool on the pallet:
a. Align the pallet removal tool
holes with the pallet shoulder
screws and then position the tool
against the front of the pallet.
b. Slide the pallet removal tool to the left, to locate the shaft of the two
(2) shoulder screws into the tool slots.
c. Rotate a locking finger over each
of the two (2) shoulder screws.
• The magnetic field generated by the pallet magnets can be harmful to
pacemaker wearers. Maintain a minimum distance of 31 cm (12 in.)
between the pallet and the implant location. The magnetic field may
also induce magnetic materials into motion, creating potential
projectiles or pinch points. Various electronic equipment and
magnetic data carriers can also be affected by magnetic fields.
• Always install a keeper plate on the pallet magnet when a pallet is
removed from the SuperTrak conveyance platform to reduce the
magnetic field to a safe level.
• Make sure the motor power is OFF when a pallet is installed on the
SuperTrak conveyance platform. The external safety circuit must turn
the failsafe output to the control panel OFF when the guard doors are
open, to disable the motor power.
The magnetic attraction between the permanent magnets of the pallet
and the motor increases as the distance decreases. Prevent strong impact
of the pallet with the motor or damage can occur.
