2.5. Mounting Instructions

2.5.3 Mounting the Tool

The robot tool flange has four holes for attaching a tool to the robot. A drawing
of the tool flange is shown in figure 2.4.

2.5.4 Mounting the Controller Box

The controller box can be hung on a wall, or it can be placed on the ground. A
clearance of 50mm on each side allows for sufficient airflow.

2.5.5 Mounting the Teach Pendant

The teach pendant can be hung on a wall or on the controller box. Extra fittings
can be bought. Make sure that no one can trip over the cable.

2.5.6 Connecting Cables

Use only the original robot cable to connect the robot to the controller box.
Ensure that the connectors are properly secured in place. All electrical con-
nections to the tool or the interface inside the controller box shall conform to
the specifications in section 3.1. Never connect or disconnect any cables when
the power is enabled or if any connector is wet. All electrical equipment in
the robot installation shall be connected to earth. Use the screw connection
marked with earth symbol inside the controller box when potential equalization
with other machines is required.
The mains supply shall be equiped with the following as a minimum:
1. A correct sized fuse.
2. A residual current device (RCD).
3. A correct connection to earth.
Mains input specifications are shown below. The shown power specifications
are averages taken over one minute under normal conditions. Power consump-
tion peaks during high accelerations at high speeds with high payloads.
