Chapter 5 - Optional Equipment Installation
The solenoid valve assembly consists of two independent valves (Valve #1 and Valve #2)
on a common manifold. The manifold supplies air at the user's line pressure, 28 psi
minimum to 114 psi (0.2 MPa to 0.8 MPa). Each valve has two output ports, A and B. The
output ports are arranged so that when Port A is pressurized, Port B is not pressurized.
Conversely, when Port B is pressurized, Port A is not. In the Adept Cobra i-series robots,
the air lines from Port A on each valve are plugged at the factory (at the solenoid
assembly).
The Solenoid Kit for the Adept Cobra i-series robot is available through Adept. Contact
your Adept Sales Representative for current price and availability.
Tools Required
• Assorted Allen drivers
• Cable ties
• Diagonal wire cutters
• Solenoid Valve upgrade Kit (Adept P/N 02853-000)
Procedure
1. Turn off all power to the robot.
2. Remove two screws on the i600 (three screws on the i800) on each side of the outer
link cover. Remove two screws on the top and remove the cover.
3. Connect the Internal Solenoid Valve Cable assembly to the Solenoid Manifold
assembly, by plugging the SOL 1 connector into Valve 1 and SOL 2 into Valve 2.
