Cleanroom-model Manipulator

For the Cleanroom-model, an exhaust system is necessary. For details, refer to

Setup &

Operation: 2.6 Specifications

Protection-model Manipulator

For the Protection-model, also make sure to follow the following precautions.

CAUTION

■

When operating the Manipulator under special environmental conditions (adverse

conditions with dust and oily smoke), do not place the Controller in the same

condition since the Controller does not comply with IP67. Doing so may cause

equipment damage to and/or malfunction of the Controller.

■

After using the brake release unit, be sure to reconnect the external short

connector to the Manipulator. The brake release unit is not certified with the

protection rating (IP67).

M/C Cable Connection method

Connect the power connector and the signal connector of the M/C cables to the Controller.

Grounding

WARNING

■

Ground resistance must be 100

or less. Improper ground resistance may

result in fire and/or electric shock.

■

Do not use the ground line for the Manipulator in common with other ground lines

or grounding electrodes for other electric power, motor power, welding devices,

etc. Using the ground line for the Manipulator in common with other ground lines

or grounding electrodes may result in electric shock and/or malfunction of the

robot system.

■

When using metal ducts, metallic conduits, or distributing racks for cable, ground

in accordance with national and local electric equipment technical standards.

Grounding that does not meet the standards may result in electric shock and/or

malfunction of the robot system.

Follow local regulations for grounding. It is recommended that the core size of the
grounding wire be 5.5 mm

or more.

Directly connect the ground line to the Manipulator as shown in the figure below.

Detail of A

5.5 mm

or more
