Important notes

 

CAUTION
Damage to persons and devices
  • Read up on the general and special safety instructions before starting the work.
Note
Improper operation may result in damage to the gear unit.
  • Please ensure that
  • the ambient temperature is not below -30 °C and not above +60 °C, and
  • the operating temperature does not exceed +90 °C.
  • Avoid icing, which can damage the seals.
  • For other operating conditions please contact our customer service.
  • Do not exceed the operational limit values for the gear unit
  • Only use the gear unit in a clean, dust-free and dry environment.
DANGER
Serious risk of injury!
  • Only specialist personnel with extensive knowledge in the areas of electrical engineering / drive technology are allowed to install and commission the equipment.
  • Check that all live connection points are protected against accidental contact.
  • The surface temperature of the motor can exceed 100 °C in operation. Check (measure) the temperature of the motor. Wait until the motor has cooled down below 40 °C before touching it.
  • Make sure that, even if the drive starts to move unintentionally, no danger can result for personnel or machinery.
Note
Overloading of the gear!

With motor / gear combinations can in case of failure (mechanical blockage of the power train) due to high ratio, the gear will be overloaded.

To prevent this, make sure that the motor rated torque and the motor peak torque is limited in the servo drive.

Example:

  • Motor rated torque / motor peak torque: 1 Nm / 5 Nm
  • Gear rated torque / gear peak torque: 15 Nm / 24 Nm
  • Gear ratio: i = 10
  • The motor rated torque is not limited. The motor peak torque is limited to 2,4 Nm.
