Limiting Devices
There are no dynamic or electro-mechanical limiting devices provided by OMRON. The robot
does not have safety-rated soft axis or space limiting.
However, the user can install their own safety rated (category 0 or 1) dynamic limiting devices
if needed, that comply with ISO 10218-1, Clause 5.12.2.
Singularities
No singularities exist within the work envelope that cause a hazardous situation with the
robot.
2.5 Intended and Non-intended Use
Intended Use of the Robots
The normal and intended use of these robots does not create hazards.
The robot has been designed and constructed in accordance with the relevant requirements of
IEC 60204-1.
The robot is intended for use in parts assembly and material handling for payloads up to 6.0
kg, for anodized platforms, and payloads up to 3 kg for stainless steel platforms. Refer to Pay-
load Specifications on page 156 for complete information on the robot specifications. Refer to
the Robot Safety Guide (Cat. No. I590) for details on the intended use of our robots.
Guidelines for safe use:
Exposure to Liquid and Particles — Surfaces of the robot have been designed to shed
l
water. Refer to Cleaning iX4-650H/800H Robots on page 118 and Cleaning iX4-
650HS/800HS Robots on page 120 for more information. The robot`s platform and outer
arms are IP67 rated. The base of the iX4-650H/800H robots is IP65 rated, and for the
iX4-650HS/800HS robots, the rating is IP66.
Temperature — 1 to 40°C, with a recommended humidity range of 5% to 90%, non-con-
l
densing.
Non-Intended Use
iX4 robots are not intended for:
Use in the presence of ionizing or non-ionizing radiation
l
Use in potentially explosive atmospheres
l
Use in medical or life saving applications
l
Use in a residential setting. They are for industrial use only
l
Use before performing a risk assessment
l
Where the equipment will be subject to extremes of heat or humidity
