Top: If there is a top cabinet, additional space is required
Environmental conditions:
Operating temperature:+5 ° C to+45 ° C (without cooling unit),+5 ° C to+55 ° C (with cooling unit)
Storage temperature: -25 ° C to+70 ° C (without battery), -25 ° C to+40 ° C (with battery)
Humidity level: 3k3 per DIN EN 60721-3-3
Altitude: No derating required below 1000m, derating reduced by 5% for every 1000m below 4000m
7.2 Power Connection Requirements
KR C2 has strict requirements for power quality:
Electrical parameters:
Rated voltage: AC 3 × 400V to 3 × 415V
Voltage tolerance: 400V -10% to 415V+10%
Grid frequency: 49 to 61Hz
System impedance: ≤ 300m Ω
Rated power: Standard 7.3kVA, Heavy duty robot 13.5kVA
Fuse specifications: minimum 3 × 25A slow melting, maximum 3 × 32A slow melting
Important precautions:
Must be connected to the TN system (neutral point grounded)
It is necessary to rotate the magnetic field clockwise to ensure that the fan rotates correctly
System impedance exceeding 300m Ω may cause the fuse to fail to melt in a timely manner during ground faults
7.3 X11 Interface Configuration
X11 is a 108 pin Harting connector used to connect external security devices, and its correct configuration directly affects the security of the entire system
Key signal:
Drive open channel A/B (pins 11/12): Floating point contact, indicating the status of the drive contactor
Automatic mode contact (pin 48/46): Closed in automatic mode
Test mode contacts (pins 48/47): Closed during test mode
Verify input channels A/B (pins 50/51): STOP 0 triggered in all modes
If verification input is not used, pin 50 must be short circuited to test output 38, and pin 51 must be short circuited to test output 39, otherwise the system cannot operate.
Chapter 8: Maintenance and Fault Diagnosis
8.1 Preventive Maintenance Plan
The maintenance work of KR C2 must be carried out according to strict cycles:
Every 6 months:
Test the emergency stop button function
Test mode selection switch function
Check the direction of the external fan
Every 12 months:
Clean the interior of the control cabinet
Check and tighten all wiring terminals
Replace PC fan (based on running time)
Every 2 years:
Replace the control PC battery
Check the status of the pressure compensation plug
Every 5 years:
Replace the internal battery of KPS600
Replace the safety bus I/O terminal (safety bus system)
Regularly charge according to storage temperature:
≤ 20 ° C: Charge once every 9 months
20 ° C to 30 ° C: Charge every 6 months
30 ° C to 40 ° C: Charge every 3 months
8.2 LED Fault Diagnosis Guide
The LED indicator lights of each module in KR C2 provide first-hand information for rapid fault diagnosis:
KPS600 LED combination indicator:
LED1 flashes 5 times/1.5Hz: abnormal brake resistor current
LED1 flashes 4 times/1.5Hz: brake resistor fault
LED1 flashes 3 times/1.5Hz: DC bus overvoltage
LED1 flashes twice/1.5Hz: internal/radiator overheating
LED1 flashes once/1.5Hz: 24V power failure
KSD LED status:
Green constantly on: servo enabled, working normally
Green flashing: DC bus undervoltage (<250V)
Red flashing: Fault state (bus overvoltage)
Red green flashing: Communication error
CI3 board LED monitoring:
By monitoring the status of LED16-LED28, it is possible to monitor the 24V power supply, 5V ESC node, communication status of each node, and fuse status.
8.3 DSE-RDW diagnostic tool
DSE-RDW is a professional diagnostic tool provided by KUKA, which can deeply analyze the communication status between DSE and RDC:
Core diagnostic function:
Display DSE working status and DPRAM test results
RDC table displays measurement and configuration data for all axes
Communication error counter monitors transmission quality
Automatic adjustment of offset and symmetry
When the communication error counter continues to increase, it indicates interference in the connection between DSE and RDC, which may be due to poor cable shielding, poor contact, or EMC issues.
8.4 ESC Diagnostic System
The ESC diagnostic tool provides status monitoring and fault analysis functions for safety circuits:
Node status display:
Real time display of the status of each ESC node (CI3, KCP, KPS, MFC)
Dual channel signal consistency monitoring
Input/output signal level display
Fault record:
The error log is saved in C: KRC Robotter Log EscDiagnosis.rog
Record timestamps for all security related events
Support detailed configuration in expert mode
When a 'crossed connection error' occurs, it indicates that the A/B channels of the input signal are reversed or short circuited with the test pulse output, which is the most common wiring error in safety circuits.

Classification of protective measures:
Intrinsic safety design: mechanical limit, software limit
Protective devices: safety fence, grating, safety door
Warning devices: warning lights, buzzers, signs
Organizational measures: operating procedures, training, authorization
