Precautions

 

Installation 

• 

Installing the slider type in the horizontally oriented wall mount or ceiling 
mount may cause the stainless steel sheet to be loosened or be off the 
right position. Continued use of the actuator with this condition may 
result in the breakage of the stainless steel sheet. Adjust the sheet 
tension accordingly in the regular inspection. 
(Refer to the maintenance section on the Instruction Manual for the 
procedure of stainless steel sheet tension adjustment.)

 

• 

Avoid using the actuator with no brake in the vertical orientation.

 

Attachment Surface

 

• 

The base has to have a structure with sufficient rigidity to prevent 
oscillation.

 

  The side and the bottom surfaces of the base of the actuator are the 

datum for the slider drive. If accuracy for its run is required, use these 
surfaces as a datum of the installation.

 

Datum Surface

Datum Surface

 

• 

The actuator mounting surface and other surfaces that are used as a 
datum should be flat enough with an accuracy of machining or 
equivalent treatment, and the flatness of the mounting surface needs to 
be 0.05mm/m or less.

 

• 

Secure the space where maintenance work can be performed. 

Bolt to be used

 

• 

For the bolts to be used, a high-tensile bolt complying with ISO-10.9 or 
more is recommended. 

•  

Use stainless steel screws for Dustproof/splash proof type RCP5W. 

• 

If using the tapped holes, use screws with the thread length dimension 
being less than the effective depth of the holes. 

• 

In case the tapped hole is a through hole, be careful so the screw tip 
does not exceed the surface of the tapped hole. 

• 

For the actuator mounting, use a bolt with the dimension of its effective 
mating length to the tapped hole is as stated below. 
If tapped hole on steel 

 thread length same as nominal diameter 

If tapped hole on aluminum 

 thread length 1.8 times longer than 

nominal diameter 

However, when utilizing the tapped hole actuator attach on, 
RCP5-RA4C/4R is 6mm or less, 
RCP5-RA8C/8R is 12mm or less, 
RCP5-RA10C/10R is 15mm or less, 
RCP5W-RA6C is 6mm or less, 
RCP5W-RA7C is 7.5mm or less. 
RCP5W-RA8C is 8.5mm or less, 
RCP5W-RA10C is 10mm or less. 

Tightening Torque

 

• 

Please follow the specification values stated in the Instruction Manual 
(DVD) for the tightening torque. 
Failure to do so may cause an operation problem.

 

Load Moment and 
Overhung length 

  Please follow the specification values stated in the Instruction Manual 

(DVD) for the    load moment and the overhung length of the slider type. 
Failure to do so may cause abnormal vibration or noise, and also may 
remarkably shorten the product life. 

Rod Tip Allowable 
Static Load, Load 
Offset Distance

 

  Follow the specific values described in the instruction manual (DVD) for 

the rod tip dynamic allowable load and the load offset distance for the 
rod type. Failure to do so may cause abnormal vibration or noise, and 
also may remarkably shorten the product life.

 

Stainless steel sheet

 

• 

Please do not hold the stainless steel sheet directly with hands. Please, 
also, be careful not to make a dent on the stainless steel sheet. 
Stainless sheet is easy to get dented because it is thin. Using it with a 
dent on may cause a breakage.

 

• 

If there is dust or metal contamination attached on the stainless steel 
sheet, please wipe it off the sheet surface. Operation with the stainless 
sheet that has foreign matters on its surface may cause problems such 
as sheet damage, waviness, etc. inside the slider.

 

• 

Please do not operate the unit in the ambient with dust or metal 
contamination. 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 

For the controller, only the dedicated controller manufactured by our company can be used.

 

For the connection between the actuator and controller, use the attached dedicated connection 
cable. 
 

 

 
 

  [Prohibited Items in the Cable Processing] 

 

  Do not pull or bend forcibly the cable so as not to give any extra load or tension to the 

cable. 

  Do not process the cable for extension or shortening by means of cutting out, 

combination or connecting with another cable. 

 

  Do not bend the cable in the area from the connector tip to 150mm on the both ends.

  Do not let the cable flex at a single 

point. 

  Do not let the cable bend, kink or twist. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  Do not pull the cable with a strong 

force. 

  Do not let the cable receive a turning force 

at a single point. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  Do not pinch, drop a heavy object 

onto or cut the cable. 

  When fixing the cable, provide a moderate 

slack and do not tension it too tight. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  Separate the I/O line, 

communication line and power line 
from each other. 
Do not store in the same duct. 

Follow the instructions below when using a 

cable track. 

  If there is an indication to the cable for the 

space factor in a cable track, refer to the 
wiring instruction given by the supplier 
when storing the cable in the cable track.

  Avoid the cables to get twined or twisted 

in the cable track, and also to have the 
cables move freely and do not tie them 
up. (Avoid tension being applied when the 
cables are bent.) 
Do not pile up cables. It may cause faster 
abrasion of the sheaths or cable 
breakage.. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

          Note: 

  When the cable is connected or disconnected, make sure to turn off the power to the 

controller. When the cable is connected or disconnected with the controller power turned 
ON, it might cause a malfunction of the actuator and result in a serious injury or damage 
to the machinery. 

  When the connector connection is not correct, it would be dangerous because of a 

malfunction of the actuator. Make sure to confirm that the connector is connected 
correctly.
