WARNING
■
Do not connect or disconnect the motor connectors while the power to the robot
system is turned ON. Connecting or disconnecting the motor connectors with the
power ON is
extremely hazardous and may result in serious bodily injury as the
Manipulator may move abnormally, and also may result in electric shock and/or
malfunction of the robot system.
To shut off power to the robot system, disconnect the power plug from
the power
source. Be sure to connect the AC power cable to a power receptacle. DO NOT
connect it directly to a factory power source.
Before performing any replacement procedure, turn OFF the robot system and
related equipment, and then disconnect the p
ower plug from the power source.
Performing any replacement procedure with the power ON is extremely hazardous
and may result in electric shock and/or malfunction of the robot system.
WARNING
■
Use meticulous care when handling the lithium battery. Improper handling of the
lithium battery as mentioned below is extremely hazardous, may result in heat
generation, leakage, explosion, or inflammation,
and may cause serious safety problems.
- Battery Charge
- Disassembly
- Incorrect Installation
- Exposing to Fire
- Deformation by Pressure
- Short-circuit (Polarity; Positive/Negative)
- Heating (85 °C or more)
- Soldering the terminal of the lithium battery directly
When disposing of the battery, consult with the professional disposal services or
comply with the local regulation. Spent battery or not, make sure the battery
terminal is insulated. If the terminal contacts with the other metals, it may short
and result i
n heat generation, leakage, explosion, or inflammation.
The life span of the lithium battery varies depending on the energizing hours and installation
environment of the Manipulator. It is about 7 years as a rough guide. (when the Manipulator
is connected to power for 8 hours a day)
When the Manipulator is not connected to power, the battery consumption will significantly
increase compared to when the Manipulator is energized.
If warnings of voltage reduction occur, replace the lithium battery even if it has not reached
the above product life.
For the EPSON RC+ 7.0, the recommended replacement time for the battery can be checked
in the [Maintenance] dialog box of the EPSON RC+ 7.0.
Reference: 12.2 Replacing the Timing Belt “Installation” “4. Alarm”
The battery may run out if it passes the recommended replacement time.
If no warnings of voltage reduction occur, the calibration for all joints is not necessary. You
need to perform calibration if the position moves from the originals after replaced the battery.
Always use the lithium battery and battery board designated by us.
Reference: “19. Maintenance Parts List.”
Be careful of the battery polarity to connect it correctly.
