Pneumatic system related risks
The air supply to the robot and the gripper is independent from the rest of the robot
system. Air pressure will remain after robot main power has been switched off. Air
supply to the robot must therefore be shut off and pressure-released before
installing or servicing the gripper.
The air pressure supplied to the robot and gripper must not exceed the rated limit.
Use pressure relief valves.
All pipes, hoses and connections have to be inspected regularly for leaks and
damage. Damages must be repaired immediately. Wear safety glasses when
working with the pneumatic systems.
