4.2.5. AIR CIRCULATION
The airflow, which is directed upwards in the standard version, can be directed downwards as an option, except
in the CS8C controller for the RX160.
Note:
The surface used for the installation must be horizontal and free from vibrations.
If the CS8C controller is integrated in an industrial frame ensuring that the surrounding air is
dust-free, the filter (3) must be removed.

4.2.6. ACCESSIBILITY
When designing the safety enclosure, it is necessary to ensure the accessibility of all the mechanical and electrical
elements (robot, sensors, mechanical assemblies, etc.).
CAUTION:
Make sure that the controller is placed in such a way as to avoid obstructing the air inlets and
outlets (1) (2) (3) (4) of the airflow path.
Also make sure that the controller is placed in a location where the air can circulate freely
(figures 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3). If the controller overheats, this shortens the service life of the
components and can lead to malfunctions.
Take care to avoid damaging the interconnection cable when handling the controller.
