Conditions for Transportation and Storage

The environment during transportation and storage must be dry and free from dust.

The storage time is primarily limited by the service life of the lubricants in the bearings. Do not store the product for more than 36 months and periodically operate the motor.

If the holding brake is not used for an extended period of time, parts of the holding brake may corrode. Corrosion reduces the holding torque. See Inspecting/Breaking In the Holding Brake.

Compatibility with Foreign Substances

The motor has been tested for compatibility with many known substances and with the latest available knowledge. Nonetheless, you must perform a compatibility test prior to using a foreign substance.

Degree of Protection

Degree of protection as per IEC 60034-5.

Degree of protection of motor housing with connected compressed air

IP65

IP67

(1) In the case of mounting position IM V3 (drive shaft vertical, shaft end up), the motor only has degree of protection IP50. The degree of protection only relates to the motor itself, not to mounted components such as, for example, a gearbox.

The motors can be equipped with an optional shaft sealing ring. With a shaft sealing ring, they have degree of protection IP65. The shaft sealing ring limits the maximum speed of rotation to 6000 rpm.

Note the following:

  • The shaft sealing ring is factory-pre-lubricated.

  • If the seals run dry, this increases friction and greatly reduces the service life of the sealing rings.
