Safetycautions
The driver was designed and manufactured with ample consideration given to safety. However, incorrect
handling or use may lead to injury, fire, electrical shocks, or other accidents or equipment failures. To
prevent possible problems, be sure to observe the following safety cautions at all times.
Also carefully read the safety cautions listed in the robot user's manual and follow all instructions given
there.
Never enter the robot movement range during operation.
Entering the movement range while the robot is in motion could result in serious accidents
or death. A safety enclosure or area sensor with a gate interlock function should be
installed to keep all persons safely out of the robot's movement range.
Always turn the main power breaker OFF and establish an "emergency stop" status
before performing tasks within the robot's movement range.
Failing to do so could result in serious accidents or death. (See section 7, "Configuring an
emergency stop circuit", in Chapter 2.)
The driver and robot were designed as general-purpose industrial equipment, and
cannot be used for the following applications.
·
In medical equipment systems which are critical to human life.
·
In systems which significantly affect society and the general public.
·
In environments which are subject to vibration, such as aboard ships and vehicles.
For safety purposes, be sure to install an "emergency stop" circuit.
Use the driver's "emergency stop" input terminal to install a main power shutoff circuit
(required).
•
Installation environment
Use only in environments where the prescribed ambient temperature and humidity
are maintained.
Usage in other environments could cause electrical shocks, fires, malfunctions, and product
deterioration.
Do not use in environments which are subject to vibration and impact shocks,
electromagnetic interference, electrostatic discharges, and radio frequency
interference.
Usage in these environments could cause malfunctions and equipment failure.
Do not use in environments which are exposed to water, corrosive gases, metal
cutting chips, dust, or direct sunlight.
Usage in these environments could cause malfunctions and equipment failure.
Do not use in flammable or explosive environments.
Usage in these environments could hamper operating tasks, and could possibly cause injuries.
