Mounting the Motor and/or the Belt Drive
Optionally, the actuator is supplied with a pre-installed Schneider Electric motor and/or a belt drive.
Mounting Position of the Motor and/or the Belt Drive
In case of a new motor and/or a new belt drive, you can mount the new motor to the motor adaptation and the belt drive to the drive cap. The motor and/or belt drive can be mounted in different arrangements (turned in increments of 4 x 90°). For further information, refer to Motor and/or Belt Drive Orientation and Configuration.
When choosing a third-party motor, take special care that the maximum drive torque is not exceeded. Otherwise the actuator could be damaged or destroyed.

UNINTENDED MOVEMENTS |
|
Observe the maximum permissible drive torque of the corresponding motor. |
|
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
|
|
|
FALLING HEAVY LOAD |
|
Observe the limitations for the maximum permissible mass and the maximum permissible torque of the mounted motor and/or belt drive. |
|
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
Coupling Assemblies for Motor and/or Belt Drive Mounting
A coupling assembly is required to mount a motor or a belt drive to the actuator.
When the motor of the actuator is driven directly, an elastomer coupling is used. The elastomer coupling consists of two clamping hubs and one elastomer spider.
When the motor of the actuator is driven by a belt drive, a clamping set is used. The clamping set consists of self-locking devices and belt pulleys.
You need the following tools to mount the motor and the belt drive:
oTorque wrench with a set of hexagon sockets
oCaliper gauge (for distance measurement)
For suitable parts, refer to Replacement Equipment of the Lexium EAC1-Series.
