2.7 Additional Safety Information
l
In hazardous (explosive) atmospheres
l
In the presence of ionizing or non-ionizing radiation
l
In life-support systems
l
In residential installations
l
Where the equipment will be subject to extremes of heat or humidity
l
In mobile, portable, marine, or aircraft systems
NOTE:
The gyroscope used to assist in platform navigation requires a sta-
tionary environment for optimum accuracy. Therefore, we do not recom-
mend them for use on a ship, train, aircraft, or other moving environment.
IMPORTANT:
The instructions for operation, installation, and main-
tenance given in this guide and the AMR user’s guide must be strictly
observed.
Non-intended use of AMRs can:
l
Cause injury to personnel
l
Damage itself or other equipment
l
Reduce system reliability and performance
IMPORTANT:
Since the robot is not water proof (IP20), floors must be
kept relatively dry, as any dampness can cause the wheels to slip. This
can cause problems for braking as well as navigation. Refer to 13849-2 for
instructions on how to test the robot in non-standard environments.
If there is any doubt concerning the application, ask your local Omron Support to determine if
it is an intended use or not.
Robot Modifications
If the user or integrator makes any changes to the robot, it is their responsibility to ensure that
there are no sharp edges, corners, or protrusions.
Note that any change to the platform can lead to loss in safety or functionality. It is the
responsibility of the user or integrator to ensure that all safety features are operational after
modifications.

The Mobile Robot LD Safety Guide (Cat. No. I616) provides detailed information on safety for
Omron Robotics and Safety Technologies, Inc. mobile robots. It also gives resources for inform-
ation on relevant standards. It ships with each mobile robot.
