Chapter 9 - <strong>Robot</strong> Cleaning/ Environmental Concerns<br />

Temperature<br />

The <strong>Adept</strong> <strong>Quattro</strong> <strong>s650H</strong> robot is designed to operate from 1° to 40° C (34° to 104° F)<br />

ambient temperature.<br />

At near-freezing temperatures, moderate robot motions should be used until the robot<br />

mechanical joints warm up. <strong>Adept</strong> recommends a monitor speed of 10 or less for 10<br />

minutes.<br />

The robot system can sustain higher average throughput at lower ambient temperatures,<br />

and will exhibit reduced average throughput at higher ambient temperatures.<br />

9.2 Cleaning<br />

Caustic Compatibility<br />

The <strong>Adept</strong> <strong>Quattro</strong> <strong>s650H</strong> robot is designed to be compatible with moderate cleaning<br />

agents commonly used in the cleaning of food-processing equipment. All robot<br />

components are designed to handle daily exposure to cleaning agents. Exposure may<br />

result in some discoloration of the materials, but no significant material removal. For<br />

acidic environments, refer to “Acidic Operating Conditions” on page 112.<br />

If highly caustic cleaning agents are to be used, the perimeter of the AIB should be<br />

caulked where it meets the robot base to prevent corrosion of the aluminum at that point.<br />

(This is not anodized, in order to maintain electrical conductivity.) See the following two<br />

figures.<br />
