Activities and intervals (Foundry Prime application)
Robots working with water jet cleaning and that have the special tightness for this application
require special maintenance for proper function. The maintenance must be done according to
the maintenance schedule in the Product Manual and the following additional maintenance.
1. The battery is used as a back-up when the robot system is switched off. Therefore, the
life of a lithium battery depends on how frequently the power to the system is switched
off and also if the environment temperature is higher than recommended operating
temperature. The life varies from 12 - 36 mths, depending on current conditions. An
alert is given on the TPU or the FlexPendant when the battery is nearly discharged and
it must then be replaced within a month.
2. The gearboxes are lubricated for life, which corresponds to 40,000 hours of operation
if the robot is operating with an ambient temperature of less than 40° C. If the
temperature is higher, the oil should be changed!
3. Must be replaced if bent!
4. Parts that need to be changed according to the maintenance schedule are not covered
by warranty.
