Quattro HS Robot Base
Because of the need to seal the junction between the robot base and the frame, the protective
earth ground connection for the HS robots has been moved from the base mounting pad to
inside the AIB/eAIB cable inlet box, which is electrically connected to the robot base.
The ground screw is marked inside the cable inlet box with a label.
Robot-Mounted Equipment
DANGER: Failing to ground robot-mounted equipment
or tooling that uses hazardous voltages could lead to
injury or death of a person touching the end-effector
when an electrical fault condition exists.
If hazardous voltages are present at any user-supplied robot-mounted equipment or tooling,
you must install a ground connection for that equipment or tooling. Hazardous voltages can
be considered anything in excess of 30 VAC (42.4 VAC peak) or 60 VDC.
If there will be hazardous voltages present at the tool flange or end-effector, you must:
