Electrical Setup; Electrostatic Discharge Safety - ROBOTIQ Hand-E C10 Instruction Manual

3.5. Electrical Setup

Power and communication are established with the Hand-E C10 Gripper via a single device cable. The device cable provides a 24V
power supply to the gripper and enables serial RS485 communication to the robot controller.
INFO
RS485 signals (485+, 485-, and 485 GND) are isolated from the main 24V power supply. GND can be
connected to any other ground reference as long as the voltage potential between the grounds does not
exceed 250V. Grounding reference is at the user's discretion.

3.5.1. Electrostatic Discharge Safety

Robotiq Hand-E C10 Gripper is not ESD safe.
When installed properly using the tooth lock washers, the casing and internal mechanism are grounded through the screws used
to mount the gripper on the coupling. The top six (6) screws, the stepped fingers, and rails are isolated from the rest of the Hand-E
C10 Gripper. It is not possible to discharge any electrostatic charge that would build up on the part through the gripper.
3.5.2. Pinout Interface
The gripper interfaces with its coupling via a 10-spring pin connector located on its outer surface.
