3. Environments and Installation
3.1 Environmental Conditions
A suitable environment is necessary for the robot system to function properly and safely.
Be sure to install the robot system in an environment that meets the following conditions:
Item Conditions
Ambient temperature * 5 to 40°C (with minimum temperature variation)
Ambient relative humidity 10 to 80% (no condensation)
First transient burst noise 2 kV or less
Electrostatic noise 6 kV or less
Environment · Install indoors.
· Keep away from direct sunlight.
· Keep away from dust, oily smoke, salinity, metal
powder or other contaminants.
· Keep away from flammable or corrosive solvents
and gases.
· Keep away from water.

NOTE
* The ambient temperature conditions are for the Manipulators only. For the Controller
the Manipulators are connected to, refer to the Controller manual.
Special Environmental Conditions
The surface of the Manipulator has general oil resistance. However, if your
requirements specify that the Manipulator must withstand certain kinds of oil, please
consult your distributor.
Rapid change in temperature and humidity can cause condensation inside the
Manipulator.
If your requirements specify that the Manipulator handles food, please consult your
distributor to check whether the Manipulator gives damage to the food or not.
The Manipulator cannot be used in corrosive environments where acid or alkaline is
used. In a salty environment where the rust is likely to gather, the Manipulator is
susceptible to rust.
WARNING
■ Use an earth leakage breaker on the AC power cable of the Controller to avoid
the electric shock and circuit breakdown caused by an unexpected water leak.
Prepare the earth leakage brake that pertains the controller you are using. For
details, refer to the controller manual.
