Chapter 3 Enclosure and Disconnect Requirements
Adept MV Controller User’s Guide, Rev. B 51
Refer to Appendix A for dimension drawings on the Adept
MV-5 and MV-10 controllers and the Compact Controller.
Voltage Interruptions
During a power failure, the contents of memory are not saved, and you will later
have to reload V
+
and your programs from disk. In some situations, you may find
it convenient to provide an external uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to avoid
or reduce power interruptions.
Enclosure and Disconnect Requirements
The Adept controller must be installed in a suitable enclosure that provides the
environment (temperature, etc.) specified in Table 3-1, and complies with
applicable local and national regulations.
The enclosure must also provide a power disconnect with a method for user
service personnel to lock the power in the off position. This is required for safety,
including national and international standards such as:
• OSHA ‘Lockout/Tagout’ (USA)
Free space around controller (for proper
cooling)
Robot controller, vertical
mounting:
25 mm at top and bottom
Stand-alone controller, horizontal
mounting:
25 mm at left and right sides
Chassis protection class, unmounted IP20 (NEMA Type 1)
Recommendations for
customer-supplied enclosure for Adept
controller. (Mandatory for installations
in EU or EEA countries.)
Enclosure must meet EN 60204
(IEC 204) requirements and be
rated at IP54. Also, the enclosure
must provide a method of locking
the enclosure power-disconnect in
the OFF position.
