2.5 Making robot ready for operation2.5.1 Additional installation procedure, Clean RoomGeneralRobots with protection type Clean Room are specially designed to work in a cleanroom environment.Clean Room robots are designed to prevent from particle emission from the robot.For example, the maintenance work possible to perform without cracking the paint.The robot is painted with four layers of polyurethane paint. The last layer being avarnish over labels to simplify cleaning. The paint has been tested regardingoutgassing of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and been classified in accordancewith ISO 14644-8.Any Clean Room parts that are replaced must be replaced with parts designed foruse in Clean Room environments.Clean Room class 5According to IPA test result, the robot IRB 120 is suitable for use in Clean Roomenvironment when these requirements are fulfilled:• Air cleanliness Class 5 according to ISO 14644-1, when operated at a velocityof 50%.• Air cleanliness Class 4 according to ISO 14644-1, when operated at a velocityof 100%.Classification of airborne molecular contaminationOutgassing amountParameterClassifica-tion in ac-cordance toISO 14644-8Norm basedon 1m 2 and1s(g)Total detec-ted (ng)PerformedtestTemp (°C)Test dura-tion (s)Area (m 2 )-6.81.7E-072848TVOC2336004.5E-03-3.81.7E-0446524TVOC90604.5E-03Preparations before commissioning a Clean Room robotDuring transport and handling of a Clean Room robot, it is likely that the robot hasbeen contaminated with particles of different kinds. Therefore the robot must becarefully cleaned before installation.Do not apply force on the plastic covers when lifting the robot!
