Safety Requirements for Additional Equipment

Additional equipment used with the Adept Quattro s650 robot (grippers, conveyor belts,
etc.) must not reduce the workcell safeguards.

All emergency stop switches must always be accessible.

If the robot is to be used in an EU or EEA member country, all components in the robot
workcell must comply with the safety requirements in the European Machine Directive
89/392/EEC (and subsequent amendments) and related harmonized European,
international, and national standards. For robot systems, these include: EN 775/ISO
10218, sections 5,6; EN 292-2; and EN 60204. For safety fences, see EN 294.

In other countries, Adept strongly recommends, in addition to complying with the
applicable local and national regulations, that a similar level of safety be attained.

In the USA, applicable standards include ANSI/RIA R15.06 and ANSI/UL 1740.

In Canada, applicable standards include CAN/CSA Z434.

2.9

Sound Emissions

The sound emission level of the Adept Quattro s650 robot depends on the speed and
payload. The maximum value is under 90 dB. (This is at maximum

AUTO

-mode speed.)

WARNING:

Do not remain under the robot while it is transported.

WARNING:

Acoustic emission from this robot may

approach 90 dB (A) under worst-case conditions. Typical
values will be lower, depending on payload, speed,
acceleration, and mounting. Appropriate safety measures
should be taken, such as ear protection and display of a
warning sign.
