Installing IF-380, IF-530
CAUTION
- The feeder must be mounted on a smooth, flat surface. Ensure that the IF-530 is firmly secured. Failure to do so will degrade feeder performance.
- Be careful not to let the feeder fall; this can cause equipment damage or pin your hands or feet. When working, wear protective equipment, including safety shoes.
To ensure proper operation, the IF-380 and the IF-530 must be securely mounted (with four M8 screws) on a rigid, horizontal base table. Ideally, the base table should be made by securing a steel plate to a frame.
The total weight of the plate and frame, if they are not attached to the floor, should be at least 200 kg (IF-380) and 250 kg (IF-530) in order to sufficiently dampen vibrations.
KEY POINTS
Depending on the weight of the system to which the feeder is secured, the vibrations of the feeder can interfere with sensitive surrounding processes. This interference can be reduced by using a rigid base table or by securing it to the floor.
