Warning

Before opening the YRC1000 door, the power supply must be cut off, otherwise electric shock may occur. When replacing the control power supply unit, the power must be cut off for at least 5 minutes before starting the operation. During this time, never touch the terminals. Also, please confirm that the orange LED lights of the rectifier and inverter units are off. Residual voltage in the capacitor may cause electric shock or injury.

If the charging indicator light does not go out for a long time, it may be due to abnormal power cut off (power cut off when servo is on, power outage, etc.). At this time, with the main power supply turned on, turn on the main power switch to discharge. After confirming that the charging indicator light is off, turn off the main power switch.

During maintenance, in order to prevent unrelated personnel from accidentally turning on the power supply, please hang "Prohibit power on" and "Prohibit power on" signs on the main power supply (knife switch, wiring breaker, etc.), YRC1000 and related control panels. Warning sign.

After replacing parts, you must confirm that there are no abnormalities in the robot and peripheral equipment, and that no one is in the action area before starting the robot.

After the robot is set up, if the robot system is changed due to replacement of parts, change of teaching pendants, replacement of tools and peripheral equipment, etc., the robot must be run at low speed and confirm that there are no abnormal sounds, vibrations, abnormal movements, etc. If an abnormality occurs, please turn off the power immediately and contact the safety manager.

When entering the safety fence, please confirm that there are no danger sources around. If there is a danger source, please fully understand the surrounding conditions before entering.

If it is necessary to perform work when the power is turned on or enter the action range, be sure to arrange for other workers to stand next to the control cabinet so that they can press the emergency stop button in time in case of abnormal conditions.

Notice

Do not touch the regenerative resistor when it is hot, otherwise it may cause personal burns.

After the repair is completed, please carefully confirm that no tools are forgotten in the YRC1000 and that the cabinet door is secure. Otherwise, an electric shock accident may occur, resulting in personal injury.

When replacing parts, be sure to use parts recommended by Yaskawa. If you use other than recommended parts, not only will performance not be guaranteed, it may cause equipment malfunction, and may even cause a fire.
