The AccelerOme instrument includes the following three features to ensure safe instrument operation:
- The front door is locked electromagnetically during instrument use to prevent access to the instrument interior, where moving parts, chemicals, and high temperatures can cause injury.
- The instrument status is communicated via the instrument interface and the colored illumination of the instrument interior.
- If the robot arm moves while the door is open, an acoustic warning signal sounds to alert you.
- The robot arm movement is controlled and the drives in the arm are deactivated upon collision.
