8.4 Exclusions and Incompatibilities
Table 8-2. Internally-Mounted Hand Valves
Installation considerations The internal air line normally used to supply
the internally-mounted hand valves (Adept
Option Kit P/N 02853-000) is instead used to
provide vacuum to the bellows/outer link. One
of the external 6 mm user air lines would need
to be used to supply the hand valves instead.
Performance considerations The air exhausting from the internally
mounted hand valves may be of sufficient
quantity/ quality to cause the robot to fail to
meet Class 10 particulate limits.
Recommendation For these reasons, Adept recommends
mounting hand valves externally.
8.5 Maintenance
Bellows Replacement
Check the bellows, Adept p/n 04625-000, periodically for cracks, wear, or damage. Replace
bellows, if necessary, using the following procedure:
Removing the Bellows
1. Loosen the lower bellows clamp by loosening the screw and pulling the clamp apart
slightly. See the following figure.
Figure 8-3. Lower Bellows Clamp
2. Remove the tool flange. Refer to Removing and Installing the Tool Flange on page 75 for
the tool flange removal procedure.
