IAI America RCS-C - Manual (Page 5)

 Turn off the power to the product in the event of power failure. Failure to do so may cause the product to
suddenly start moving when the power is restored, thus resulting in injury or product damage.
 If the product is generating heat, smoke or a strange smell, turn off the power immediately. Continuing to use
the product may result in product damage or fire.
 If any of the internal protective devices (alarms) of the product has actuated, turn off the power immediately.
Continuing to use the product may result in product damage or injury due to malfunction. Once the power
supply is cut off, investigate and remove the cause and then turn on the power again.
 If the LEDs on the product do not illuminate after turning on the power, turn off the power immediately. The
protective device (fuse, etc.) on the live side may remain active. Request repair to the IAI sales office from
which you purchased the product.
[Maintenance, Inspection, Repair]
 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.
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]
 Do not throw the product into fire. The product may burst or generate toxic gases.
Caution
[Installation]
 Do not use the product under direct sunlight (UV 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.
 Do not use the product in an atmosphere of corrosive gases (sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid), etc. Rust may
form and reduce the structural strength.
 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
 Do not install the product in a place subject to large vibration or impact (4.9 m/s 2 or more). Doing so may
result in the malfunctioning of the product.
 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.
 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.
 Do not hold the moving parts of the product or its cables during installation. It may result in injury.
 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.
