Product documentation Categories for user documentation from ABB Robotics The user documentation from ABB Robotics is divided into a number of categories. This listing is based on the type of information in the documents, regardless of whether the products are standard or optional.
The installation and/or use of non-original spare parts and equipment can negatively affect the safety, function, performance, and structural properties of the robot. ABB is not liable for damages caused by the use of non-original spare parts and equipment.
The SISTEMA/ABB FSDT libraries contains details for the safety functions. Performance level for OmniCore C30 for CRB 15000 The OmniCore C30 for CRB 15000 controller safety system has a safety category 3 with performance level PL d according to EN ISO 13849-1 and thus fulfils the safety performance requirement of the robot safety standard EN ISO 10218-1.
The manipulator can move unexpectedly at any time. DANGER Troubleshooting on the controller while powered on must be performed by personnel trained by ABB or by ABB field engineers. A risk assessment must be done to address both robot and robot system specific hazards.
2.1 About CRB 15000 Introduction The CRB 15000 robot is a lightweight, flexible, agile 6-axis articulated, industrial robot, with a payload of 5 kg, designed specifically for manufacturing industries that use flexible robot-based automation, for example, the 3C industry. The robot has an open structure that is especially adapted for flexible use, and can communicate extensively with external systems.
Note If the CRB 15000 is connected to power, always make sure that the robot is connected to protective earth and a residual current device (RCD) before starting any installation work. For more information see: •...
It also contains information useful during later re-installation of the robot. Prerequisites for installation personnel Installation personnel working with an ABB product must: • Be trained by ABB and have the required knowledge of mechanical and electrical installation/maintenance/repair work. • Conform to all national and local codes.
Introduction This procedure is a brief guide when installing the robot for the first time. Also see Pre-installation procedure on page First installation Use these procedures to install the CRB 15000. Action Note Transport the manipulator to its intended location.
