2. Handling of the Unpacked Product
Do not transport the actuator by holding the cable or move it by pulling the cable.
•
When the actuator is taken out from the package and handled, hold the base section.
•
When the stainless sheet is attached, never hold the stainless sheet section.
•
When transporting the actuator, be careful not to hit it against other objects. In particular,
pay attention to the side cover.
•
Do not give any unnatural force to any of the sections in the actuator. In particular, pay
attention not to apply any force on the stainless steel sheet if the actuator is equipped with
the stainless steel sheet.
Environments for Installation, Storage and Preservation
1. Installation Environment
Please attempt to avoid installing the product to such places as listed below.
It is generally the environment where a worker can work without any protection gear.
Also, make sure to keep enough space necessary for maintenance work.
•
Place where exposed to radiant heat from a huge heat source such as heat treatment
•
Place where the ambient temperature goes out of the applicable range from 0 to 40
°
C
•
Place where condensation would occur due to sudden temperature change
•
Place where the relative humidity exceeds 85% RH
•
Dustproof/splash proof type RCP5W possesses the protection structure against dust and
water equivalent to IP65.
•
Place where exposed to the direct sunlight
•
Place where corrosive gas or flammable gas exist
•
Place where it contains a lot of dust, salt or iron (Outside of an ordinary assembly plant)
(Dustproof/splash proof type RCP5W-RA6C and RA7C possesses the protection
structure against dust equivalent to IP67.)
(Dustproof/splash proof type RCP5W-RA8C and RA10C possesses the protection
structure against dust equivalent to IP65.)
•
Place where water, oil (includes oil mist and cutting fluid) or chemical is splashed
(Dustproof/splash proof type RCP5W-RA6C and RA7C possesses the protection
structure against water equivalent to IP67.)
(Dustproof/splash proof type RCP5W-RA8C and RA10C possesses the protection
structure against water equivalent to IP65.)
•
Place where the product main body receives vibration or hit impact
•
Place with an altitude of 2,000m or more
Make sure to have a treatment for blocking when using in the following conditions:
•
Place where noise is generated by such facts as static electricity
•
Place where exposed to the influence of strong electric or magnetic field
•
Place where exposed to the influence of ultraviolet or radiant rays
2. Storage and Preservation Environment
•
The storage and preservation environment should comply with the same standards as
those for the installation environment. In particular, when the machine is to be stored for a
long time, pay close attention to environmental conditions so that no dew condensation
forms.
•
Unless specially specified, moisture absorbency protection is not included in the package
when the machine is delivered. In the case that the machine is to be stored and preserved
in an environment where dew condensation is anticipated, take the condensation
preventive measures from outside of the entire package, or directly after opening the
package.
•
For storage and preservation temperature, the machine withstands temperatures up to
60
°
C for a short time, but in the case of the storage and preservation period of 1 month or
more, control the temperature to 50
°
