There are many interrelated factors that determine suitability of the location for
the system and each of these factors requires careful consideration. All aspects
of the site must be detailed.
This chapter gives guidance by outlining the various aspects.
It is not possible to cover all the situations likely to be met. Should there be
any doubt regarding the suitability of the proposed site, our team of ex-
perienced engineers will gladly advise on the best course to take.

2.1 Site

The basic system (including built-in options), which can be part of a flow line,
will be installed in a normal clean production environment. Adequate working
space must be allowed for operation, maintenance and servicing.
The site must meet the requirements of an average industrial environment.
Apart from the above-mentioned requirements, the site must provide the
following facilities:
Ducts in the floor or in the ceiling to accommodate electrical cables, and
air hoses.
Facilities to clean parts of the system.
Facilities to store tools, maintenance materials, feeders, tape reels and
documents etc. near the system.
Mains wall socket for test and measuring equipment (connected to the same
mains group as the main system).
Mains wall socket for connection of vacuum cleaner.
A floor covering which is easily cleaned and impervious to oil.
The following aspects should also be considered when siting the system:
An external telephone line nearby.

2.1.1 Ducting

The services required for the system can be divided into the following three
groups, each with a different type of ducting:
The mains voltage cable must be routed through a separate metal duct or
pipe, which must be connected to earth, to avoid EMI problems. It is not
allowed to route signal cables through this duct or pipe.
The signal cables, such as telephone, must be routed through another metal
duct or pipe, connected to earth, as necessary.
Compressed air supply can be delivered by metal pipes or hoses. To prevent
earth loops and transfer of vibration, it is recommended to connect a piece
of flexible hose between the fixed pipe and the system.
