Adept Cobra s600/s800 Robot User’s Guide, Rev H 129
User Air Lines
On the back of the Joint 1 cover, the user air line connectors are fitted with removable
plugs at the factory - see Figure 10-12 on page 128.
The user air line connectors on the outer link are accessible with the cover removed. See
Figure 10-13 on page 128 for locations of the internal connectors.
When routing air lines outside of the robot, any fittings you use must maintain an
adequate seal in the cover to prevent moisture from entering the outer link.
Robot Solenoid Option
In an IP-65 robot, if you are installing the internally-mounted solenoid hand valves
(Adept Option Kit P/N 02853-000), you must use a different air line than described in
Section 7.6 on page 90.
The internal air line normally used to supply the solenoid manifold is instead used to
provide positive airflow pressure to the bellows/outer link. You can use one of the
passive 6 mm user air lines shown in Figure 10-12 and Figure 10-13 on page 128.
10.6 Maintenance
IP-65 Bellows Replacement
Check the bellows, Adept P/N 04625-000, periodically for cracks, wear, or damage.
Replace bellows, if necessary, using the procedure below.
1. Remove the lower bellows clamp by removing two M3 screws and pulling the
clamp apart. See Figure 10-14.
2. Remove the tool flange. Refer to Section 7.2 on page 81 for the user flange
removal procedure.
3. Remove the upper bellows clamp by removing two M3 screws and pulling the
clamp apart.
4. Slide the old bellows down off of the quill.
5. Install a new bellows by sliding it up onto the quill.
6. Re-install the upper bellows clamp. You must align mating surface of the clamp
half-rings with the bellows seam - see Figure 10-15. Tighten the screw to secure
the bellows.
7. Re-install the tool flange.
CAUTION: Failure to prevent water intrusion through
improperly-sealed external fittings could void your
warranty.
