Cleaning Magnet Arrays - Rockwell Automation MagneMotion QuickStick HT User Manual

Cleaning Magnet Arrays

The magnet arrays attract ferrous particles from the air and surrounding surfaces. These parti-
cles accumulate and appear as small "hairs" on the surface of the array.
NOTICE
• Use adhesive tape to capture the ferrous particles on the magnet arrays.
• To combat accumulated debris, keep magnet arrays not being used in their original
container.
• Proper precautions must be taken when magnet arrays with stainless steel covers that
are not welded onto the back iron are used in wash down applications or in environ-
ments where water or fluids are contacting the array. The mounting must secure the
array with a suitable form of gasketing to prevent water ingress into the array through
either its back surface or the seam where the cover meets the back iron of the array.
The top surface and sides of the cover are water-resistant.

To avoid severe injury, people with pacemakers and other
medical electronic implants must stay away from the magnet
arrays.
CRUSH HAZARD: Strong magnets in use.
To avoid severe injury from strong magnetic attractive
forces:
• Handle only one vehicle or magnet array at a time.
• Do not place any body parts (for example, fingers)
between a magnet array and any QuickStick HT motors,
ferrous material, or another magnet array.
• Magnet arrays or vehicles not being used must be secured
individually in isolated packaging.
Strong magnets in use.
To avoid damage to watches, instruments, electronics, and
magnetic media, keep metal tools, metal objects, magnetic
media (for example, memory disks/chips, credit cards, and
tapes) and electronics away from the magnet arrays.
