Re: Tips from a veteran Robot Inspector
Scott,
The pneumatic rules are very specific on what can be off board if you choose to place pneumatic items off board.
[R73]
Compressed air on the Robot must be provided by one and only one compressor. Compressor specifications may not
exceed nominal 12V, 1.05 cfm flow rate, 120 psi maximum working pressure. Off-board compressors must be
controlled and powered by the Robot.
Under R74
D. If the compressor is not included on the Robot (under the provisions of Rule [R73]), the regulator and high-pressure gauge may be located on-board or off-board, provided all other pneumatic rules are satisfied.
Note that if the regulator is kept off-board the Robot with the compressor, then only low-pressure (60 psi or less) “working” air can be stored on the Robot.
During Power On testing, you will need to show that the compressor indeed is controlled by the Crio, shuts off at ~120 psi, and meets all other pneumatic rules that apply.
