Description Only connecting cables provided by KUKA Roboter GmbH may be used for
the connection of the drive box.

The robot controller corresponds to EMC class A, Group 1, in accor-


dance with EN 55011 and is intended for use in an industrial setting.
Ascertaining the electromagnetic compatibility in other environments
can result in difficulties due to conducted and radiated disturbance that may
occur.

Description The drive box can be installed in a 19" rack or as a standalone device. If the
drive box is to be installed in a 19" rack, the depth must be at least 600 mm.
The drive box can be installed either beneath or next to a KR C4 compact ro-
bot controller. The specifications in the “Technical data” chapter must be ob-
served. The drive box may only be installed and operated in the horizontal
position.
The dimensions of the drive box are indicated in the diagram (>>> Fig. 6-1 ).

6.8 Performance level

The safety functions of the robot controller conform to category 3 and Perfor-
mance Level d according to EN ISO 13849-1.

6.8.1 PFH values of the safety functions

The safety values are based on a service life of 20 years.


The PFH value classification of the controller is only valid if the E-STOP device
is tested at least once every 6 months.
When evaluating system safety functions, it must be remembered that the
PFH values for a combination of multiple controllers may have to be taken into
consideration more than once. This is the case for RoboTeam systems or
higher-level hazard areas. The PFH value determined for the safety function
at system level must not exceed the limit for PL d.
The PFH values relate to the specific safety functions of the different controller
variants.
Safety function groups:
 Standard safety functions
 Operating mode selection
 Operator safety
 EMERGENCY STOP device
 Enabling device
 External safe operational stop
 External safety stop 1
 External safety stop 2
 Velocity monitoring in T1
 Safety functions of KUKA.SafeOperation (option)
 Monitoring of axis spaces
 Monitoring of Cartesian spaces
 Monitoring of axis velocity

8.1 Start-up overview

This is an overview of the most important steps during start-up. The


precise sequence depends on the application, the manipulator type,
the technology packages used and other customer-specific circum-
stances.
For this reason, the overview does not claim to be comprehensive.
