ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

• RSJ requires two (2) separate power circuits & internet connection. Electrical services must be routed to the dedicated machine utility locations before scheduled installation date by the customer. The customer is required to provide the following services & connections. It is the customer’s responsibility to contract a qualified licensed electrician to run & connect the electrical power to the machine & install the supplied ground rod. BACA Systems installers are prohibited from performing any electrical work in connecting from the facility to the machinery.
• Robot Controller Power: 480 VAC, 3 phase, protected circuit breaker / fused disconnect for 80 amps. If customer facility has a lower voltage, the customer is responsible for a step-up transformer. Consult with a licensed electrician. Must be appropriately sized copper. Terminal lugs are not large enough to handle aluminum. See Figure 2.
• Waterjet Pump Power: 480 VAC, 3 phase, protected by a circuit breaker / fused disconnect for 100 amps. If customer facility has a lower voltage, the customer is responsible for a step-up transformer. Consult with a licensed electrician. Must be appropriately sized copper. Terminal lugs are not large enough to handle aluminum. See Figure 3.
• Internet Connection: A high-speed hard-wired internet connection is needed. The Cat 5 cable will be landed in the control panel. Access through customer’s firewall shall allow for remote administration using Team Viewer. Team Viewer is supplied by BACA.

WATER REQUIREMENTS

• RSJ requires three (3) separate water utilities. The customer is responsible for providing water sources & connecting to the machine as required. We highly recommend having your water tested to guarantee it meets the water quality requirements listed in this document. Failure to meet the requirements could lead to premature equipment failure.

• Intensifier Cutting Water In: Inlet water is pressurized by the intensifier pump & delivered to the cutting nozzle. The cutting water supplied must maintain a minimum of 40 PSI @ 4 GPM. Failure to satisfy requirements will lead to operation faults. ½” NPT connection for Cutting Water In at the rear of the pump. See figure_. Pipe/fittings must be PVC, stainless steel, or copper. Customer must route 1” supply line & or larger & reduce only at the pump. Good water quality will significantly improve the performance life of high-pressure components. Recommended quality standards as follows.

• Cooling Water In: The cooling requirement for the pump is approximately 35,000 BTU/hr. The unit can be cooled with clean city water or with a chiller. Cooling Water In must maintain 3-5 GPM @ 65°F. 1/2” NPT connection at the rear of the pump. See Figures 4 & 5. Recycled water is not recommended as cooling water. Pump seal life will be reduced if water temperature exceeds 65°F.
• Cooling Water Out: To control the flow of the cooling water, a ball valve is recommended on the cooling water outlet. Controlling flow at this point will ensure the heat exchanger is saturated. Cooling Water Out should be plumbed back to the chiller if present, or the water recycling system. 1/2” NPT connection at the rear of the pump. See Figures 4 & 5.
• Bleed Down: Only active when the system is depressurized. <1 qt of water per discharge. 1/2” NPT fitting at the rear of the pump. Can be recycled into the gray water system. See Figures 4 & 5.
• Saw Water: This water is used to cool the saw blade. It can be clean city water or recycled process water. Must be filtered to 50 microns. Supplemental filtration may be required. A minimum of 5 GPM @ 35 PSI is required with benefit up to 12 GPM. 3/4” NPT & hose barb connection at the robot unit. 50’ of 3/4” ID Supply Hose Provided By BACA.
• Tank Overflow: Adequate drainage should be provided to accommodate overflow & spillage of the tanks. There are two 2” NPT bulkheads on each tank acting as overflow drain. BACA provides a plug & 90-degree elbow on each tank. The customer is responsible for piping to drain to the desired location.

AIR REQUIREMENTS

• The RSJ requires two (2) separate air connections. Dry air is critical to the performance of the system. Poor air quality can lead to premature component failure & increased garnet flow disruption.
• Robot Air: Robot system requires 1 cfm@ 85-100 PSI. This customer supplied connection is a ¼ quick disconnect fitting on the pneumatic regulator mounted on the system perimeter.
• Bulk Garnet Hopper Air: The bulk garnet hopper requires 3 cfm at 60-100 PSI. This customer supplied connection is a ¼ quick disconnect fitting on the side of the garnet hopper.

ENVIRONMENT REQUIRMENTS

• The RSJ is designed to operate in a temperature range between 41° & 113° F. Additional climate control equipment may be required for facilities that have conditions outside of this range.
• Refer to system configuration layouts for floorplan and elevation details to ensure a proper location for the system in the customer’s production environment.

FOUNDATION REQUIREMENTS

The RSJ Robot requires 8” thick concrete area measuring 54” x 54”. The robot cannot be raised or placed over a seam/joint in the concrete. Must meet the requirements of C20/25 standard. There cannot be reinforcement bars or obstructions that would prevent drilling into the foundation with a standard concrete drill bit. The floor does not have to be level but must be flat, particularly under the robot base. The RSJ can compensate for a slight slope but exceeding 1” slope across the machine footprint should be discussed with BACA Systems. Customer supplied leveling shims may be required. System layout drawings provided by BACA. Location of the system must be determined before the arrival of installers. Customer is responsible for ensuring placement of the machine as in the drawing. Customer must verify & confirm that there are no utilities (power, water, air, heat, etc.) in the floor under the system. See Figure 6 for foundation drill pattern. Refer to configuration standards and/or job specific layout for additional spatial references.

ADDITIONAL CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

• Approx. 55 gallons of hydraulic oil required. Customer is responsible to supply & fill pump. Acceptable oil types include Chevron Rando HD Oil ISO 46, Conoco Megaflow AW ISO 46, Mobile DTE-25 Medium, Shell Telus S2 M ISO 46, Agip Arnica ISO 46, AW ISO 46. Alternatives are acceptable if they meet or exceeds the specifications of the options listed.
• Customer supplied forklift must have 8,000 lb. payload capacity. The forks no larger than 6.5” x 2.5”, a minimum length of 6’ & minimum spread of 26” from inside of the left fork to inside of the right fork. Customer must be prepared for the system to arrive on a 48’ curtain side truck/trailer & prepared to unload from both sides. Robot to be unloaded using the fork pockets of the base
  structure. Prepare for a 12’ wide table to enter the building if the truck is unloaded outside. Fork pockets on the tables are only present on the wide side.
