Product Testing
All Yaskawa products undergo rigorous testing during the design phase to ensure long life and problem-free operation.
Maximum Temperature
Maximum Load
Maximum Voltage and Hi-Pot
Eletromagnetic Compatibility
Coated Board Protection
In addition to an extremely robust design, we understand your environment may be less than perfect for electronics.That’s why we’ve stacked the deck in your favor with conformal coating on all circuit boards to provide some “extra protection”, meeting IEC 60721-3-3, 3C2, 3S3 levels.
Zero Tolerance
Rest assured that Yaskawa complies with strict environmental standards relative to use of hazardous substances. Products are certified to the RoHS 2 Directive (2011/65/EU), which strictly limits the amount of lead, mercury, cadmium and others substances.
A standard feature of the GA800 is Safe Torque Off, which prevents torque production to the motor even while main input power remains applied. This minimizes your downtime when people enter your mechanical safety zone. Normal operation is resumed faster.
