Installation Requirements Overview
Power Supply
Proper power supply and wiring are critical to the performance of
the FT-70. An unconditioned power source or improper wiring can
create noise transients that adversely effect the CPU. Noise
transients can create false rejects or cause premature failure of
electrical components.
• The power must be computer grade.
• The FT-70 requires 115 VAC (
±
10%) at 50/60 Hz, single phase
power at 2 amps (or 230 VAC (
±
10%) at 1 amp). There is a
voltage select switch inside the FT-70 which must be set to the
correct input voltage.
• The power should originate from a clean branch circuit that is
not used for electric motors or other equipment which can
cause electrical transients. The neutral line must be properly
grounded.
• If power regulation cannot be maintained between 105 and 125
VAC (or 220 to 250 VAC), a voltage regulator must be installed.
Industrial Dynamics recommends the SOLA Micro/Minicom-
puter Regulated Power Supply.
Pneumatics
The FT-70 requires 7 psi to maintain the air purging of the
inspection head. Air purging the unit keeps the electronics free of
contaminants and corrosion. The air purge system consists of an
air filter/pressure regulator unit mounted externally and an
internal muffler/disperser.
• Input Air Supply: 80 to 120 psi and not less than 1.5 cfm.
• Pressure Regulator Output: 0.5 cfm (preset at factory).
For information on the air requirements for you rejector, refer to
your rejector manual.
