Warnings
!
Equator 300 and Equator 500
• Do not move or lift the machine by the support arms for the
constraint mechanism (9), the support struts (4), or the three drive
struts (6) (e.g. by holding the orange protectors or any part of the
drive strut mechanism).
• Due to the collision risk, always engage the stop button (15) when
the user is present within the machine volume. Disengage when the
Equator is ready to operate and the operator is clear of the machine
volume.
• Potential finger traps and pinch points exist between:
› support arm (9) and casting (5);
› support arm (9) and constraint mechanism (12);
› upper pivot (8) and drive strut (6);
› platform (3) and piece part (14);
› platform (3) and constraint mechanism (12);
› the struts of the constraint mechanisms (12) in the centre.
› Users should not touch the Equator in these locations.
• When connecting a joystick, stop button or Button Interface (15) to
the Equator, it must be disconnected from the mains power supply.
Not doing so can cause damage to the circuitry.
• Never keep an additional non-connected joystick, stop button or
Button Interface (15) in the vicinity of the system to avoid user
confusion.
• On systems already fitted with the SP25 probe (2), the SP25M body
contains high power LEDs which emit invisible infrared radiation.
The user cannot be exposed to this radiation unless the probe is
mechanically damaged. Please refer to the SP25 Installation and
Integration Guide, H-1000-7541.
• To avoid unexpected movements of the Equator, always recalibrate
all probing tools after importing a new environment into UCCserver
Equator.
• If this equipment is not used in its intended manner, any protection
provided may be impaired and the warranty may be voided.
• CE mark and serial number (10) are located underneath the front
support arm for the constraint mechanism (9).
• To warn users of potential risks involved with moving parts, active
parts are coloured bright orange (3), (6), (7), (9).
• During homing, the machine is in automatic mode and will only halt if
the physical stop button (15) is engaged.
Equator 300 only
• Lifting or moving the Equator 300 should only be attempted by two
people using the hand hold locations provided in the base casting
(1).

Equator 500 only
• The Equator 500 should only be mechanically lifted using, for
example, a gantry crane, forklift, etc. There are eye bolts (16) on the
top casting of the Equator 500 to allow the use of lifting straps or
a harness. Each eye bolt supplied with the Equator 500 has been
rated to a safe working load of 240 kg, and manufactured to DIN
850. Renishaw only guarantees the integrity of the eye bolts supplied
for the initial installation of the unit. Should you wish to use this
equipment for subsequent lifts, it is your responsibility to ensure it is
inspected in accordance with local legislative requirements before
use.
• When connecting an Equator Autojoint Adapter (17) to the Equator,
it must be disconnected from the mains power supply. Not doing so
can cause damage to the circuitry.
Electrical safety

• There are no user-serviceable parts inside the Controller.
• The Equator must be connected to a supply incorporating a
protective earth conductor via a three-core mains cable.
• The equipment is isolated from AC power by disconnection of
the IEC mains connector. If any additional means of isolation
is required, it must be specified and fitted by the machine
manufacturer or the installer of the product. The isolator must
be sited within easy reach of the operator and comply with
BS EN IEC 61010-1:2010 +AMD1:2016 and any applicable national
wiring regulations for the country of installation.
Personal protective equipment and placement
• It is recommended that safety goggles and safety shoes be worn
when working around the machine to reduce the risk of injury.*
• The Equator Controller can be placed either standing or lying on its
side, but should be given a reasonable protection from liquid spillage.
• The fans for cooling the equipment must not be obstructed. Fans
* Customers should complete their own risk assessment on delivery of
the machine to define their own PPE requirements.
are located on the front and back of the Controller. Ensure that the
Equator Controller fans are located at least 10 cm from any surface.
Emergency situation information
If the machine begins to behave in an unexpected manner, engage the
physical stop button to reduce the risk of damage or injury. In the case
of fire, use fire extinguishers for electrical fires. There are no potential
chemical leaks from the machine.
