Safety Precautions

To avoid possible personal injury or damage to the equipment:

  • Do not use the system for any purpose other than its intended use.

  • Personal injury could be caused from high leakage electrical current from the main power cable. An Earth (ground) connection is essential before connecting power.

  • Do not operate the system if the safety doors and shields are not in their normal operating positions.

  • Do not operate the system if any panels/sheet metal are removed.

  • Do not operate the PSV2800 System unless you have been thoroughly trained and have read and understand the instructions in the "PSV2800 Owners & Operators Manual", particularly those that describe the system’s safety features.

  • Do not disable or attempt to defeat any safety features of this system. Serious personal injury and equipment damage can occur if any safety systems are disabled. If you suspect that a safety feature of the system is damaged or malfunctioning, stop using the PSV2800 immediately and contact your local Data I/O Support representative.

  • Do not place any part of your body near moving machine parts.

  • Use extra caution when working within the work surface. Opened safety doors do NOT cut power to all systems. For example, actuators can still operate and move.

  • Wear hearing protection while operating the machine as sound pressure levels may exceed 85 decibels (depending on auxiliary equipment running and your enviornment).

Caution note Caution

Pinch hazard! The E-Stop does not shut off air. Socket actuators can still move down and up when an E-Stop is pushed-- and when doors are open. Exercise extreme caution.

REPAIR PRECAUTIONS

  • Only qualified personnel trained by Data I/O should install, maintain, repair, or troubleshoot the PSV2800 Systems.

  • Do not operate a system while servicing, replacing, or adjusting any component unless directed to do so in the "PSV2800 Owners & Operatros Manual". Make sure that the system is properly shut down before servicing, replacing components, or adjusting components.

  • Disconnect the external air before servicing pneumatic parts.

OTHER EQUIPMENT PRECAUTIONS

  • Use extra caution when using the Tape Input module (feeder) or the Tape Output module options. The PSV2800 safety doors do not fully enclose them. It is possible that hands, hair, or loose clothing could get caught or pinched in these mechanisms.

  • Always dispose of hazardous or residual by-products of the production process in accordance with governing laws.
