INSTALLATION
Mechanical Installation
Lubrication
The TDM / TDX Series actuators are shipped from the factory fully
greased and ready for installation. Exlar recommends using Mobilith
SHC 220, a high performance, extreme-pressure grease. The unique
physical properties of the synthetic base oil provide outstanding
protection against wear, rust, corrosion and high or low-temperature
degradation. Mobilith SHC allows for very low starting and running torque
values. Its operating range is -40° C to 177° C (-40° F to 350° F).
However, in installation below 0° C is stiffer using some of the motors
available torque, for cold temperature operation contact Exlar Application
Engineer for lubrication options. See Maintenance section for detail on
disassembly for greasing.
Mounting Configurations
The standard configurations available are Rear Clevis, Side Mount,
Side Trunnion and Front Flange (See Model Mask and ordering guide
in Overview section). General drawings are shown in the product
section guide.
Mounting and Operating Considerations
Every effort should be made to minimize misalignment. Any
misalignment will decrease the life of the components within the actuator
and also may create problems within the application associated with
misalignment.
Excessive side load on the output rod of the actuator will
dramatically reduce the life of the actuator and should be
avoided completely. Side load can be caused from misalignment or
loading that is not in line with the actuator output rod.
Care should be taken not to exceed the physical travel
limits of TDM Series Actuators. Doing so will cause the
actuator to end-crash internally. End crashes can physically
damage the roller screw and the internal components of the
actuator.
