Description

(380 V, 60 Hz)

The motor is mounted under the drum and drives the drum directly on its output shaft. To

reduce motor noise and vibration the entire drum unit has rubber dampers. On flexibly-

mounted models this damping is provided by either eight or ten rubber straps, while the

drum unit of R-models is mounted on two relative rigid rubber bushings.

Electrical connection is to block X1 in the automatic control unit.

The extractors are connected with cable set A between relay and motor.
