2.3 Usage conditions

The following description gives major operating conditions for YAMAHA robot series
products.
● EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility)
YAMAHA robot series products are designed for use in industrial environments.
(Applicable definition relating to the EMC Directive: Refer to the EN61000-6-2
Standard, Clause 1 "Scope".)
In order to conform to the EMC Directive, the customer must evaluate the finished
product (entire system) and take necessary countermeasures. Refer to EMC
countermeasures for single units of YAMAHA robots, which are described in Chapter 4
in this manual.
● Installation conditions
• Protective structure
YAMAHA robots are classified as built-in equipment and have a "Class I" protective
structure against electrical shock.
The robot and controller must therefore be grounded properly to prevent possible
electrical shock. For details, refer to the controller user's manual and the robot user's
manual.
• Enclosure
The robot controller case is not designed as an enclosure that conforms to the
EN60204-1 Standard. Suitable protection should therefore be provided to prevent
the danger of electrical shock due to inadvertent contact and ambient environment
problems (dust, water, etc.).
• Insulation co-ordination
Regarding insulation co-ordination, YAMAHA robots and controllers are designed to
meet the following conditions:
Overvoltage category II
Pollution degree 2
Take proper countermeasures as needed if the robot or controller is used in
environments more severe than these levels.
● Explosion-proof
• YAMAHA robots and robot controllers are not designed to meet explosion-proof
specifications.
Do not use them in environments exposed to flammable gases, gasoline, or solvents
which could cause explosion or fire.
