2-2 Notice on handling
Handle RSF-B mini series actuators with care, specifically:
2-3 Location and installation
2-3-1 Environment of location
The environmental conditions of the location for RSF-B mini series actuators must be as follows.
◆
Service temperature: 0
°
C to 40
°
C
When the actuator is installed in a closed space, the temperature in the
space may be higher than the atmosphere because of heat emission by the
actuator. Design the closed space size, ventilation system, and device
locations so the ambient temperature near the actuator is always 40
°
C or
less.
◆
Service humidity:
20 to 80% relative humidity, without condensation
Make sure no water condensation occurs at the place where there is a large
temperature change in a day or due to frequent heat-and-cool cycles due to
the operation of the actuator.
◆
Vibration:
25 m/sec
2
(10Hz~400Hz) or less
◆
Impact:
300 m/sec
2
or less
◆
Make sure the actuator is in an area free from: dust, water condensation, metal powder, corrosive
gas, water, water drops, and oil mist.
◆
Locate the driver indoors. Do not expose it to the sunlight.
(1) Do not apply impact or unnecessary excessive force to output
flange of actuators.
(2) Do not put actuators on in a location where the driver could
easily fall.
(3) The allowable temperature for storage is from -20
°
C to +60
°
C.
Do not expose it to the sunlight for a long time and do not
store it in areas with widely fluctuating temperatures.
(4) The allowable relative humidity for storage is 80% or less.
Do not store it in highly humid place or in a place where
temperature changes excessively during the course of a day.
(5) Do not store units in locations with corrosive gas or particles.
CAUTION
WARNING
Do not plug the actuators directly into a commercial line power
source.
This could burn out the actuator, potentially resulting in a fire
and/or electrical hazard.
