1.4 Mounting (continued)
Motors should be mounted using hardened 5mm or #10 hardware. AMCI motors can produce high torques
and accelerations that may weaken and shear inadequate mounting hardware.
1) The motor case must be grounded for proper operation. This is usually accomplished
through its mounting hardware. If you suspect a problem with your installation, such as
mounting the motor to a painted surface, then run a bonding wire from the motor to a solid
earth ground point near it. Use a minimum #8 gauge stranded wire or 1/2” wire braid as the
grounding wire
2) Do not disassemble any motor. A significant reduction in motor performance will result.

1.4.2 SV160E2 Mounting
The SV160E2 is not water tight. Its IP64 rating makes it acceptable for use in dusty environments, environ-
ments with condensation, and environments where the unit may be exposed to splashing water.
1.4.3 Connecting the Load
Care must be exercised when connecting your load to the SV160E2. Even small shaft misalignments can
cause large loading effects on the bearings of the motor and load. The use of a flexible coupler is
strongly rec-
ommended whenever possible.

Maximum radial load is 45 lbs. (200N) at the end of the shaft.

Maximum axial load is 13.5 lbs. (60N)
Internal encoders are mounted on the end of the motor shaft that is internal to the unit. Exces-
sive axial load may cause encoder mis-alignment and damage to the unit. This type of damage
is not covered under warranty.
