Before You Begin Chapter 1
High Energy Magnets Linear thruster magnet tracks contain high energy magnets that attract ferrous
metals from a considerable distance. Precautions must be taken while you
unpack, handle, and ship by air.
When You Unpack and
Handle the Linear Thruster
Leave protective wrapper, cardboard, and flux containment plates in place until
linear thruster is installed. Clear the inspection and work area of any ferrous
metals that can be attracted to or attract the linear thruster. If you are working
multiple linear thrusters, maintain a distance of 1.5 m (5 ft) between each
linear thruster.
Table 1 - Safety Labels
Title
Location
Label Details
Strong Magnets A The Linear Thruster slide uses strong magnets over its entire length. The
magnetic field that is generated can disrupt the functionality of automatic
implantable cardioverter defibrillators (AICD). People with cardiac
pacemakers must not work near the linear thruster.
The strong magnets of the linear thruster slider can attract metal objects
that are in its proximity. When you handle and install the linear thruster
maintain distance between the linear thruster slider and metal surfaces or
structures. See Remove the Linear Thruster from the Shipping Container on
page 22
Maintenance personnel must avoid the use of metallic tools and secure
items such as badge clips other personnel effect that can be attracted to the
strong magnetic field.
Strong magnets can erase magnetic media. Never let credit cards or
electronic media contact or come near the linear thruster.
Pitch Point/ Motion Hazard B The linear thruster can have sudden and fast motion. Never stand in the axis
of motion when under power. Do not put fingers inside the slider. Lock out -
tag out if access to the linear thruster is required during maintenance while
the connectors are installed.
Hot Surface C Indicates that the surface can be hot enough to burn if touched.
High Voltage D Do not open linear thruster covers or right angle connectors while the cables
are connected. Lock out-tag out if access to the linear thruster is required
during maintenance while the connectors are installed.
Shipping/handling Set Screw E If you handle the linear thruster for maintenance or installation the set screw
must be tightened to 2.3 N•m (20 lb•in). The tightened screw prevents
unexpected movement of the slide and a shift in the center of gravity of the
actuator.
After installation, loosen the set screw so that the slider is free to move for
normal operation. The set screw is loose when the head of the screw is flush
with the surface of the stator housing.

Air Freight Restrictions When air freight is used for a linear motor, special preparations and
precautions must be taken. The following information outlines the basic
requirements at the publication date of this document. However, regulations
are subject to change and more area or carrier restrictions can be imposed.
Always check with your carrier or logistics specialist regarding current local,
regional, and national transportation requirements when shipping this
product.
Linear thruster magnet tracks contain magnetized material, as classified by
International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods
Regulations. An IATA trained individual must be involved when shipping this
product via domestic or international air freight. Packing Instruction 902
provides information regarding the preparation of this product for air
transportation. Follow these general regulations to mark and label containers
to meet requirements, the application of specific Magnetized Material
Handling Labels, and instructions for preparing the Shipper's Declaration for
Dangerous Goods.
As a minimum, refer to the following IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations:
• Subsection 1.5: Training
• Subsection 3.9.2.2: Classification as Magnetized Material
• Subsection 4.2: Identification as UN 2807, Magnetized Material, Class
9, Packing Instruction 902
• Subsection 7.1.5: Marking
• Subsection 7.2: Labeling
• Subsection 7.4.1: Magnetized Material Label

Vertical or Incline
Installation
A linear thruster driven system that is mounted vertically or on an incline
cannot maintain position when the power is removed. The force of gravity on
the motion platform and its payload causes slider to fall to the low end of travel.
Design engineers must design in controlled power down circuits or mechanical
controls to prevent the linear thruster driven system and their payload from
being damaged when the power fails.
Additional Concerns Read and follow the following statements
IMPORTANT Any person that teaches, operates, maintains, or repairs these linear
thrusters must be trained and demonstrate the competence to perform the
assigned task safely.
ATTENTION: Linear thrusters can have high accelerations, sudden, and fast
motion. Rockwell Automation is not responsible for misuse, or improper
implementation of this equipment.
ATTENTION: Linear thrusters driven systems must have their payload
secured such that it cannot sheer off in the event of an impact in excess of
the bumper ratings.
ATTENTION: The Hall effect module and motor feedback encoder contain
electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive devises. Follow static-control
precautions when you install, test, service, or repair these assemblies. If you
do not follow ESD control precautions, components can be damaged. If you
are not familiar with static control precautions, refer to Guarding Against
Electrostatic Damage, publication 8000-4.5.2, or any other applicable ESD
awareness handbook.

Linear Thruster Features The linear thruster features a high-resolution encoder and has been designed
for exact positioning at high speeds. The linear motor extends or retracts the
slider within the stator body in response to signals received from the servo
drive.

Installation
Before You Begin
Do not remove the corrugated cardboard sleeve or foam inserts until the linear
thruster is installed, by keeping the packaging material on the linear thruster
you minimize the possibility of a tip hazard. If necessary, for accessory
installation, cut the cardboard sleeve to gain access to the slider ends.

ATTENTION: To avoid personal injury and structural damage to the linear
thruster, never attempt to lift or move the linear thruster by any means other
than methods shown in this publication.
ATTENTION: High force magnets are inside the corrugated cardboard
sleeves that cover the sliders. The corrugated sleeves reduce, but do not
eliminate magnetic attraction forces.
Ferrous Surface
Slider has strong
magnetic forces.

Chapter 2 Installation
We recommended the use of an overhead lift for removing the linear thruster
from its shipping container. For linear thrusters of frame 50 and larger use the
eye bolts supplied.
Planning Your Installation See the Kinetix Linear Motion Specifications GMC-TD002, for the
specifications and the products that are referenced in this section.
When planning your installation consider the following.
• In your application design, include unobstructed access to the linear
thrusters shipping and handling setscrew.
• Observed maximum loading limits to operate this product in
compliance with the relevant safety regulations.
• If you are mounting your linear thruster in a vertical or sloped position,
include safety measures that control the work load if the power fails.
• Corrosive environments reduce the service life of linear thrusters.
• Factory-manufactured feedback and power cables are available in
standard cable lengths. They provide environmental seal and shield
termination. Contact your Allen-Bradley® sales office or refer to the
Kinetix Motion Accessories Specifications, publication KNX-TD004,
for more information.
General safety standards and requirements include, but are not limited to, the
following:
• UL 1740 Safety of Robots and Robotic Equipment
• ANSI/RIA R15.06, Industrial Robots and Robot Systems Safety
Requirements - Teaching Multiple Robots
• ANSI/NFPA 79, Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery
• CSA/CAN Z434, Industrial Robots and Robot Systems- General
Safety Requirements
• EN60204-1, Safety of Machinery. Electrical Equipment of Machines
ATTENTION: Be sure that the load ratings of the lifting device, slings, hooks,
and shackles have a lifting capacity rated equal to or greater than the load.
Failure to do so can result in personal injury and equipment damage. For
your system-specific weight, refer to the system nameplate label or weights
on the packing slip.
ATTENTION: Uncontrolled masses in motion can injure or damage to
property. If there is a power failure, the working mass drops down in vertical
or incline applications.
Check whether extra external safety measures are required to prevent
damage in the event of a power failure.
