2、s); however, it is currently not part of the UL Standard(s) referencedbelow.Product Category (CCN): XWJV, XXES and XWXTStandard Number: UL 583Standard Title: Standard for Electric-Battery-Powered Industrial TrucksEdition Date: August 15, 2012Edition Number: 10Section / Paragraph Reference: Sections
3、5, 21, 22, 27 and Paragraph 8.12Subject: Requirements for Automated Guide VehiclesDECISION:5 TERMINOLOGYNew 5.6 ROBOTIC SYSTEM - A system that includes the robot (hardware and software) consisting of themanipulator whether mobile or not; power supply and control system; the end-effector(s); any equi
4、pment,devices, or sensors required for the robot to perform its tasks; and any communication interface that isoperating and monitoring the robot, equipment, or sensors, as far as these peripheral devices aresupervised by the robot control system. Also known as an automated guided vehicle or AGV.5.67
5、 ULTIMATE ENCLOSURE - Any exposed surface that could be subjected to impact or damage byexternal means.8 General8.12 In addition to the requirements within this standard, the robotic system of an automated guidedvehicle shall comply with the requirements in the Standard for Robots and Robotic Equipm
6、ent, UL1740.21 ABNORMAL OPERATION21.1 As a test of the ability of a truck to withstand abuse, the truck is to be tested as described in 21.2and 21.3. There shall be no indication of damage to any parts of the truck that causes a risk of fire, electricshock, or explosion as a result of this test. A t
7、hermostat or an overcurrent-protective device that causesinterruption of power to the traction or pump motor shall not operate during the first 5 cycles of the testdescribed in 21.2. If such interruption does occur during the remainder of the test, a thermostat is to bepermitted to reclose and an ov
8、ercurrent-protective device is to be replaced or reclosed. The test is thento be continued until all of the prescribed operations have been concluded.Exception No. 1: When the truck has a cut-back function (activated by temperature, current, etc.) whichreduces the trucks performance, but allows it t
9、o continue operation, and this happens after the first fivecycles, the test shall continue at the reduced performance level.Exception No. 2: This test does not apply to automated guided vehicles that have control systems thatcomply with UL1740 and will not allow for the truck to lift or carry a load
10、 that exceeds the marked ratingof the truck.22 TEMPERATURE TESTUL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION ORDISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL22.1.2 For constructions that incorporate current limiting devices, temperature limiting devices, coolingfans, or a combination, the
11、 test shall be conducted as follows:a) Constructions with cooling fans only:With the cooling fans disconnected, the temperature limits specified in 22.1.4 shall apply.b) Constructions with cooling fans, and current limiting/and or temperature limiting devices:With the current and temperature limitin
12、g devices disabled or not functional, the temperaturelimits specified in 22.1.4 shall apply. If a cooling fan operates during the test, the test shall thenbe repeated with the cooling fan(s) disconnected and with current and temperature limitingdevices connected. During the repeated test, a current
13、or temperature limiting device ispermitted to terminate the test by interruption of power to the traction or pump motor. If aninterruption only reduces performance, the test shall be continued and the temperature limitsspecified in 22.1.4 shall apply.c) Constructions without cooling fans, and with c
14、urrent limiting and/or temperature limitingdevices:If a current and/or temperature limiting device interrupts the power to the traction or pump motorby means of power reduction, the test shall continue and the temperature limits specified in22.1.4. If the power is terminated, the test shall be repea
15、ted 5 times. Between each test, thecurrent and temperature limiting devices shall be allowed to reset. The temperature limitsspecified in 22.1.4 shall apply.d) Constructions with control systems that comply with UL1740, that include (but are not limitedto), cooling fans, current limiting and/or temp
16、erature limiting devices, shall be allowed to operateduring the test; however, the temperature limits specified in 22.1.4 shall apply. If the power isterminated due to the control system, the test shall be considered successful if the temperaturelimits specified in 22.1.4 are not exceeded.22.1.6 The
17、 test course shall be smooth. The length of the test course for the test described in 22.2.1 -22.4.1 is to be at least 200 feet (61 m). During the tests, the vehicle is not to be operated over anystanding water. The test course for a truck other than as mentioned in 22.1.7 is to include a ramp that
18、hasa horizontal projection of 60 feet (18.3 m). The ramp is to have a 5 percent grade or a grade for which thetruck is designed to ascend, whichever is less. The grade shall not be less than 1 percent.Exception: The test course shall be allowed to be modified based on the manufacturers specification
19、s andpurpose of automated guided vehicle.27 SOLID-STATE CIRCUITRY27.1 All power and control circuits of a truck employing solid-state circuitry are to be subjected to acomponent malfunction analysis. Any solid-state component of a power or a control circuit the malfunctionof which could result in a
20、risk of fire or electric shock is to be tested in the following manner. The openingor short-circuiting of any single solid-state component shall not result in any uncontrolled operation of thetruck, a risk of fire, or a risk of electric shock.Exception: This does not apply to control circuits associ
21、ated with AGV robotic features that comply withUL1740.STANDARD NUMBER: UL 583 -2-UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION ORDISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM ULRATIONALE FOR DECISION:The rationale for this certification requirement decision is to include requirements for ro
22、botic features ofindustrial trucks, also referred to as automated guided vehicles (AGVs). The requirements primarilyinclude the reference to the Standard for Robots and Robotic Equipment, UL1740, however there areadditional specifications that define when specific tests can be waived or modified due
23、 to the constructionof the robotic control system when tested in accordance with UL1740.Copyright 2017 UL LLCUL LLC, in performing its functions in accordance with its objectives, does not guarantee or warrant thecorrectness of Certification Requirement Decisions it may issue or that they will be re
