Quick Start Guide
Please refer to the Instruction Manual [DIGITAL SPEED CONTROLLER Instruction manual (ME3818)]
for details of handling.
STEP
Let's Check before Installation and Operation
1
Digital speed controller (hereinafter described as "DS") is assumed to be operated in
set-up change (1) at startup of equipment and (2) during equipment run, and work is
assumed to be done in a safety fence.
Touching a moving part or transported object may cause injury to an operator.
Caution
Grasp the operation of moving parts or transported objects to avoid touching them,
and the work should only be conducted by an operator trained for safety training
(special training specified in Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health in case in
Japan).
If a teaching tool in high priority of communication is connected, a display "Tool
Connected" should be shown in the DS display and operation of DS should be
restricted.
When checking the display, grasp the operation range and take enough distance
from it so any part of your body would not touch any moving part or transported
object.
Make sure to separate the DS operation part from any moving part or transported
object and protect yourself with area sensors such as a light curtain before starting
the work so you would not get your finger or hand pinched.
In order for users to have a safe work, DS speed is set at 250mm/s or lower on
delivery. When you set the speed above 250mm/s, increase it gradually considering
safety for the work.
Aside an operator of DS, have a surveillant, thus have two or more people to work.
It is important that you build an appropriate safety circuit and have an emergency
stop button and 3-position enabling switch equipped. A surveillant has to
immediately stop the facility in an emergency to ensure the safety of the operator.
Make sure to have a safety circuit constructed in order to avoid a startup only with
the power getting supplied or recovery after power cutoff.
ELECYLINDER equipped with DS should be installed in a position easy to operate
and to see to protect an operator from awkward postures during operation. Failure
to do so may hurt back, neck or wrist.
Confirm that there is no error on the safety circuit or the DS itself before starting
work. Take an appropriate counteraction in case an error is found before starting
work.
Create necessary "work standards" to ensure safety and conduct a training based
on the standards, and allow only well educated ones (operators educated for work
standards) for the work.
When working inside the safety protection fence, make sure to set a display
showing "Work in Progress in Safety Fence" to a place seeable from outside of the
fence before starting work.
Ensure safety with necessary safety gear such as helmet, protection gloves,
protection glasses and safety shoes.
Carry out a risk assessment so any possible risks can be lowered as much as
possible.
