2.7 Battery Safety
Extreme heat or humidity.
l
Floors that are damp or have any standing water.
l
IMPORTANT: The LD-250 is not waterproof. Keep all floors dry. Dampness can
cause drive wheels to slip, affecting both braking and navigation.
In addition, Omron does not intend the LD-250 for deployment in the following environments:
Life-support systems.
l
Residential installations.
l
Mobile installations, including moving floors or any type of land vehicle, watercraft, or
l
aircraft. (LD-250 navigation is assisted by a gyroscope embedded in the LD-250 Core.
For accuracy, the gyroscope requires a stationary environment).
IMPORTANT: Observe all instructions for operation, installation, and main-
tenance provided in this guide and in the Mobile Robot LD Safety Guide.
Non-intended use of an LD-250 can:
Cause injury to personnel.
l
Damage the LD-250 or other equipment.
l
Reduce reliability and performance.
l
If there is any doubt concerning the application, ask your local Omron Support to determine
whether it is an intended use.
LD-250 Modifications
Omron recognizes that customers or integrators make modifications to the LD-250 to adapt it
to a specific application. When doing so, make sure that:
You use the LD-250 Core's User Interface connection to include appropriate safety
l
devices into the LD-250's integrated safety systems.
The modification causes no hazardous sharp edges, corners, or protrusions and does
l
not extend further than the LD-250 footprint. (This might affect the safety zones.)
There is no reduction in functionality.
l
All safety features (such as lasers and brakes) are functional and operate within the spe-
l
cifications determined by local standards for AMRs.
2.7 Battery Safety
The LD-250 requires one lithium ion battery. Use only the battery of the correct model number
supplied by Omron. The FLOW software determines whether the battery is the correct type for
the LD-250.
Effective April 1, 2016, IATA regulations (UN 3480, PI 965) require that air-shipped lithium ion
batteries must be transported at a state of charge not exceeding 30%. Fully charge the battery
immediately upon receipt to avoid total discharge. (The battery might arrive fully charged if it
is not shipped by air.)
