The drive may only be installed:
If the details on the rating plate on the drive correspond with the mains voltage.
If the drive is undamaged
If the ambient temperature is between -20°C and +60°C
If the installation height is not more than 1000m above sea level
If the type of protection has been appropriately selected.
Output shafts and mounting surfaces are to be thoroughly cleaned to remove the corrosion protection agent (use standard
commercial solvent). To avoid material damage the solvent must not get onto the sealing edges of the rotary shaft seals.
Abrasive agents must not be used.
To avoid shaft breakages and hence serious or fatal injuries it is essential to note the following during mounting:
The precondition for suitable dimensioning of the shaft with respect to its fatigue strength is stress-free installation and an
immovable bearing device for the gearbox support as well as any additional or essential supporting bearings in each
direction as supplied by the user.
The machine frame and force introduction points are to be designed with respect to construction and strength according to
the bearing forces which arise. The gearbox housing with two bearings and all the other bearing points are located on a
common, stable framework on which the bearing surfaces have been machined in one operation. Thereby the installer
must ensure that any deformation of the frame under load will not have any negative influences on the shaft load. The
screws may only be fully tightened once the gearbox has been accurately aligned. Installation in damp rooms or in the open
air is only permitted following agreement with the manufacturer. If the drives are stored for a lengthy period of time it is also
necessary to discuss this with the manufacturer.
Before starting the installation work make sure that all the
necessary safety measures have been implemented.
1. Installation
Place machine down on smooth mounting plate or aligned slide rails and tighten fixing
screws uniformly.
Make sure beforehand that:
PREPARATORY MEASURES
INSTALLATION ADVICE
The drive is not damaged or sticking
The drive has been reprepared after a lengthy storage period
The supply line is switched off and safeguarded against being switched on again
(VDE regs.) (VDE = German assoc. of electronic engineers)
The connections have been made properly
The turning direction of the geared motor is correct
All motor protection devices are active
No other danger sources exist
