Maintenance Plan

Overview

The maintenance intervals may have to be adapted to the greatly varying operational hours depending on the application.

For procedures to replace the different parts, refer to Replacing Parts.

Maintenance Schedule

Perform the following maintenance tasks after delivery:

Date

Action

After two months of service life

oVerify the actuator by visual inspection for any damage or missing parts, especially for moving parts and parts at risk for collisions such as mounting elements.

Perform the following maintenance tasks within the stated intervals:

Interval

Action

Every 500 hours of operation

or

when the travel path(1) is reached

oClean the actuator if necessary.

oLubricate the actuator. For further information, refer to Lubricating the Actuator.

Every 2,000 hours of operation

or

when the travel path is reached four times

oClean the actuator.

oVerify the toothed belt abrasion and replace the toothed belt, if necessary.

oVerify the actuator by visual inspection for any damage or missing parts. Especially moving parts and parts at risk for collisions such as mounting elements.

oVerify the sensors for functionality.

oVerify all parts for bolted connections.

Annually

or

after an uncontrolled stop (stop category 0)

oVerify the brake function during operations. For further information, refer to the corresponding motor manual of the optionally pre-installed Schneider Electric motor.

Every 20,000 hours of operation

oReplace the optionally pre-installed Schneider Electric motor. For further information, refer to the corresponding motor manual of the motor.

Every four years after the date of manufacturing (DOM)

oIf a belt drive is installed: Replace the toothed belt as a precautionary measure.
