D. OPTICAL FIBER CABLE
B–63173EN/03
APPENDIX
482
D Use an external cable in locations where sparks or flame are a
danger. Although the internal cord type cable
(A66L–6001–0023#~) is covered by nonflammable resin, the
cover, if exposed to frame for a long time, may melt, allowing the
fiber cable inside to burn.
D Use an external cable when the cable is expected to be pulled with
considerable force during installation (the force applied to the cable
must be within the specified tensile strength limit at all times). For
example, even though installing a cable in a cable duct can be
regarded as internal cabling, a cable of the appropriate type must
be selected according to the tensile force to be applied to the cable
during installation.
D Both the internal cord type and external cables have the same oil
and heat resistance properties.
3. Procuring the cable
All the optical fiber cables mentioned above are special cable products
with optical connectors, which are designed, produced, and tested to
ensure the required system performance and reliability. It is
technically impossible for users to produce these cables or process (cut
and reconnect) them after purchase. Users are requested to purchase
cables of the necessary length from an appropriate supplier. Cables are
available from either FANUC or any of the FANUC–approved
manufacturers listed in Table D (b).
