Important notes on selection

(1) The payload indicated in the "Main Specification" is the maximum value. Please refer to "Load capacity by speed and acceleration table" for further information.
(2) Horizontal load capacity shown assumes an operation running with an external guide. Detent mechanism may get damaged if a force was applied to the rod, except towards its moving direction.
(3) Please refer to "Correlation diagram of pressing force and power supply limit value" if you may need it to perform pressing operation. Pressing force shown are their standard value. Refer page 1-269 for notes to be considered.
(4) Please operate RCP6SW (with built-in controller) with a duty of 70% or less.
(5) When used vertically, the service life varies depending on the payload. Refer "Vertical load capacity and lifetime travelling distance" for further information.
(6) The cable joint connector is not drip-proof. Please install it in a place where it will not be exposed to water.
(7) The RCP6SW with built-in controller does not have a port for connecting the teaching tool. Connect the teaching tool to the gateway unit to set the parameter data, etc..
(8) Safety measures may be required depending on the attachment orientation. Refer to page 1-261 for further details.

*1 Select the total length of the actuator cable and actuator/controller connection cable so that the total length is 20m or less.

*2 The length of the actuator cable can be selected from 5m, 10m, and 15m as an option.

*3 The cable relay part (cable joint connector) inside the broken line is not drip-proof.

(Note) The rod moves to the M.E. upon returning to origin, so please take precaution that it may not interfere with anything while the returning process is running.

(Note) The direction the width between two flats are facing differs by product.

(Note) Comes with 1 hexagon nut and 8 square nuts.

(Note) Please refer to pages 1-340 for the material of each part.
