Before conducting maintenance/inspection, parts replacement or other operations on the product,
completely shut down the power supply. At this time, take the following measures:
1. Display a sign that reads, “WORK IN PROGRESS. DO NOT TURN ON POWER” at a conspicuous
place, in order to prevent a person other than the operator from accidentally turning on the power
while the operation is working.
2. When two or more operators are to perform maintenance/inspection together, always call out every
time the power is turned on/off or an axis is moved in order to ensure safety.
[Disposal]
z
Do not throw the product into fire. The product may burst or generate toxic gases.
Caution
[Installation]
z
Do not use the product under direct sunlight (ultraviolet ray), in a place exposed to dust, salt or iron
powder, in a humid place, or in an atmosphere of organic solvent, phosphate-ester machine oil, etc.
The product may lose its function over a short period of time, or exhibit a sudden drop in performance
or its service life may be significantly reduced.
z
Do not use the product in an atmosphere of corrosive gases (sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid). Rust
may form and reduce the structural strength of the product.
z
When using the product in any of the places specified below, provide a sufficient shield. Failure to do
so may result in malfunction:
1. Place where large current or high magnetic field is present
2. Place where welding or other operations are performed that cause arc discharge
3. Place subject to electrostatic noise
4. Place with potential exposure to radiation
z
Do not install this product in places where the product may receive vibration or shock.
z
Provide an emergency-stop device in a readily accessible position so the device can be actuated
immediately upon occurrence of a dangerous situation during operation. Lack of such device in an
appropriate position may result in injury.
z
Provide sufficient maintenance space when installing the product. Routine inspection and maintenance
cannot be performed without sufficient space, which will eventually cause the equipment to stop or the
product to sustain damage.
z
When transporting or installing the product, exercise due caution to prevent injury. For example,
securely hold the product using a lift or support or engage multiple operators to carry the product.
z
Do not hold the moving parts of the product or its cables during installation. It may result in injury.
z
Always use IAI’s genuine cables for connection between the controller and the actuator. Also use IAI’s
genuine products for the key component units such as the actuator, controller and teaching pendant.
z
The brake mechanism is designed to prevent the slider from dropping when the power to the vertical
axis is turned off. Do not use it as a safety brake, etc.
z
Before installing or adjusting the product or performing other operations on the product, display a sign
that reads, “WORK IN PROGRESS. DO NOT TURN ON POWER.” If the power is turned on
inadvertently, injury may result due to electric shock or sudden activation of an actuator.
