Environmental
Noise Levels
The audible noise level of the workcell is below 65 dBA.
Materials/Chemicals
There are no dangerous materials or chemicals used in the operation of the machine except for the required
application material. The application material should include a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) which
specifies known dangers and toxicity.
Hazards Due to Contact
The workcell is designed in such a way as to minimize injury from contact with any accessible portion of
the machine. However, under certain modes of operation, it is possible to enter the work area while the
motion platform is under power. Only a qualified person should do this. All hot surfaces are indicated with
a warning label.
Handling, Transportation and Storage
Handling and Transportation
Handling and transportation should be done in such a fashion as to minimize the vibration and shock
introduced to the system. An air-ride truck is recommended for roadway transport. Although the machine
is designed and built to perform in an industrial environment, excessive abuse will greatly impact the
performance of the machine.
Storage
Dust and Debris
All enclosures and connector covers should be closed tightly. It is recommended that a cover be place over
the system if dust or other airborne debris is present in the storage area.
Temperature and Humidity
Storage should be done in an area at 40
°
F - 105
°
F (4
°
C – 41
°
C) and low humidity. Condensation should
not be allowed to collect on the machine.
Dispensing / Spraying Equipment
Whenever the machine is to be stored for extended periods of time, the workcell should be flushed using a
solvent compatible with the application material. This includes the following systems, if applicable:
o
Dispensing valves, spray valves and servo valves.
o
Material lines and hoses.
o
Pressure vessels.
o
Pumping systems.
