Figure 6-9. Setting Solenoid Signal Values
The Adept-supplied solenoids each draw a nominal 75 mA from 24 VDC.
The solenoid valve assembly consists of two independent valves (Valve #1 and Valve #2) on a
common manifold. The manifold supplies air at the user’s line pressure: minimum 28 psi
(0.19MPa), to maximum 114 psi (0.786 MPa). Each valve has two output ports, A and B. The
output ports are arranged so that when Port A is pressurized, Port B is not pressurized.
Conversely, when Port B is pressurized, Port A is not. In the Adept Cobra s600 and s800
robots, the air lines from Port A on each valve are plugged at the factory (at the solenoid
assembly).
The Solenoid Kit for the Adept Cobra s600 and s800 robots is available through Adept. Contact
your Adept Sales Representative for current price and availability.
