Key points of safety regulations

(1) RAC 2 Security Requirements

Electrical safety

After power failure, wait for 5 minutes for the capacitor to discharge and confirm that the voltage is below 50V before operation.

Grounding conductor cross-sectional area ≥ 10mm ², leakage current>3.5mA, permanent and reliable connection.

Mechanical safety

Safety fences and emergency stop switches need to be installed, and the vertical axis requires additional mechanical locking. The standard motor brake does not meet personnel safety requirements.

The cooling air duct should be kept unobstructed to avoid overheating, and the temperature of the heat sink may exceed 60 ℃.

environmental safety

Pacemaker wearers are prohibited from entering the operating area, with a device protection level of IP10 (EN 60529).

The cooling of the control cabinet should avoid condensation water dripping onto electronic components, and the cooling temperature should not be lower than 40 ℃.

(2) Safety requirements for hydraulic cylinders

Pressure and Buckling Resistance

The maximum working pressure does not exceed 250 bar, and the pressure amplification caused by the area ratio needs to be considered.

When installed vertically, the allowable travel is calculated according to Euler’s formula, with a safety factor of 3.5.

Environment and Protection

The corrosion protection level is divided into CP3-CP7, suitable for conventional to high salt spray environments near the sea.

To avoid lateral forces acting on the piston rod, it is necessary to ensure the mechanical alignment of the motion axis.

Installation and configuration specifications

(1) RAC 2 Installation and Wiring

Installation requirements

The installation of the control cabinet requires the use of M1-RAC 2 installation frame, with a minimum spacing of 150mm at the top and 80mm at the bottom.

Operations and Services

fault diagnosis

RAC 2 displays faults through the control panel, automatically brakes and loses power when faults occur. Refer to the supplementary documentation for troubleshooting.

Common problems with hydraulic cylinders: seal leakage (replace corresponding medium seals), position measurement deviation (calibrate sensors).

repair and replacement

RAC 2 replacement requires the use of lifting equipment, programming modules can be directly plugged and reused, and faulty equipment needs to be returned with a repair card.

The replacement of hydraulic cylinder seals needs to be selected according to the medium, and corrosion protection requires regular inspection of the coating (CP3-CP7).
