3 Installation WARNING • Install the safeguarding. Failure to observe this warning may result in injury or damage. • Install the manipulator in a location where the manipulator’s tool or the workpiece held by the manipulator will not reach the wall, safeguarding, or NX100 when the arm is fully extended.
3.1 Installation of Safeguarding Installation of Safeguarding To insure safety, be sure to install the safeguarding. It prevents unforeseen accidents with per- sonnel and damage to equipment. The following is quoted for your information and guidance. Responsibility for Safeguarding (ISO10218) The user of a manipulator or robot system shall ensure that the safeguarding is provided and used in accordance with Sections 6, 7, and 8 of this standard.
3.2 Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Base 3.2.1 Installation Example For the first process, anchor the baseplate firmly on the floor. The baseplate should have enough rigidity, which is 32 mm or more in thickness. The size of the anchor bolt recom- mended for the baseplate fixation is M16 or larger.
3.3 Installation Method Installation Method The manipulator can be mounted in three different ways: floor-mounted (standard), wall- mounted, and ceiling-mounted types are available. For wall- and ceiling-mounted types, the three points listed below are different from the floor-mounted types. • S-axis Operating Range •...
In case of using the wall-/ceiling-mounted type, inform Yaskawa of the matter when placing NOTE an order. Be sure to contact Yaskawa representative (listed on the back cover of this instruction manual) to execute a wall/ceiling installation on site. Location...
4 Wiring WARNING • Ground resistance must be 100 Ω or less. Failure to observe this warning may result in fire or electric shock. • Before wiring, make sure to turn the primary power supply OFF, and put up a warning sign. (ex. DO NOT TURN THE POWER ON.) Failure to observe this warning may result in fire or electric shock.
4.1 Grounding Grounding Follow the local regulations and electrical installation standards for grounding. The recom- mended grounding wire size is 5.5 mm at minimum. For grounding, connect the ground wire directly to the manipulator as shown in "Fig. 6 Grounding Method". •...
