Electrical Installation
This section describes the electrical installation of the robot system, i.e. the connection of the robot to
the switch cabinet (horstCONTROL) as well as the connection of other devices and systems.
There are several electrical interfaces:
−
Robot connection: Connection of the robot to the horstCONTROL (switch cabinet)
−
Power connection: Connection to the power supply
−
horstCONTROL I/O: Connection of external devices and systems to the switch cabinet
−
Tool I/O: Connection of tools to the robot arm
−
Computer interfaces
The safety and warning notes in the following section apply to all electrical interfaces.

Electrical System Warning Notes
ELECTRICAL VOLTAGE!
Possible personal injuries caused by applied electricity
Work on the electrical equipment must be performed only by specialist personnel with ap-
propriate training and in accordance with the electrotechnical rules.
Use only the included power cable to connect to the power grid. Do not use damaged ca-
bles.
ELECTRICAL VOLTAGE!
Possible personal injuries caused by applied electricity
Make sure that the power supply is switched off while working on the robot and that it can-
not be switched on again by accident.
DANGER!
Danger due to incorrectly connected emergency stop devices
Only use the interface for emergency stop I/O to connect external emergency stop devices.
Do not connect any emergency stop devices to normal I/O or to the safety stop I/O.
DANGER!
Danger due to incorrectly connected safety stop devices
Only use the interface for safety stop I/O to connect external safety stop devices (e.g. safety
laser scanners). Do not connect any safety stop devices to normal I/O or to the emergency
stop I/O.
WARNING!
EMC problems may occur due to incorrect grounding.
When grounding the robot system, ensure corresponding protective and functional
measures as per DIN VDE 0100 and EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.
Ensure that the robot system is properly grounded. I.e. there must be a shared electrical
connection between all elements belonging to the system and ground.
