Mounting of Control Box (CB7)

Box Clearance

The flow of hot air in the Control Box can result in equipment malfunction. The recommended Control Box clearance is 200 mm on each side, 100 mm on the top for sufficient airflow and 100 mm at the front for opening the door.

Control Box Mounting Clearances

 

CB7 Core standing
  • Place the Control Box in the standing position by setting it upright on a level, stable floor using the factory-mounted feet.

  • Keep the recommended clearance around the unit so airflow and front door access are not obstructed.

Unstable mounting can result in injury.

  • After mounting, tighten the two thumb screws at the bottom of the Control Box by hand to secure it to the wall mounting bracket.

  • Do not use tools to tighten the thumb screws. Overtightening can damage the screws or the Control Box.

 

  1. Mount the bracket on a sturdy wall.

CB7 Core Compact / CB7 Core Compact

0.55 m mounting

CB7 Core Compact is an AC-powered controller that mounts inside your electrical cabinet. It has no outer enclosure, so you install it directly in the cabinet.

 

CB7 Core Compact 0.55 m uses the same controller and includes a 550 mm longer robot-interface lead. The extra lead connects the robot interface from the internal controller board to the panel-mount connector on the exterior of the cabinet, allowing the robot arm cable to be connected and disconnected without opening the enclosure.

 

Both CB7 Core Compact variants support vertical and horizontal orientations. Use the mounting bracket the same way as for the CB7 Core. Access the Teach Pendant the same way on both Compact variants.

Keep the robot arm and Teach Pendant (TP7) connectors pluggable and accessible from outside your electrical cabinet to support maintenance, hot-plugging, safety compliance, and integration with OEM and compact enclosures.

Ensure there is enough space for cables and air circulation around the Control Box.

Leave at least 50 mm of space around the air intake and outlets, and avoid recirculating air.
