Kollmorgen AKM, Instruction Manual

Page: 7 / 212

1.2.2 Use as directed
l
The AKM series of synchronous servomotors is designed especially for drives for industrial
robots, machine tools, textile and packing machinery and similar with high requirements for
dynamics.
l
The user is only permitted to operate the motors under the ambient conditions which are
defined in this documentation.
l
The use of Washdown motors is allowed in environments with caustic acids and bases with
respect to the defined conditions on page (
➜
# 19).
l
The use of Washdown Food motors is allowed in applications with indirect contact to food
and beverage.
l
The AKM series of motors is exclusively intended to be driven by servo amplifiers under
speed and / or torque control.
l
The motors are installed as components in electrical apparatus or machines and can only be
commissioned and put into operation as integral components of such apparatus or machines.
l
The thermal sensor which is integrated in the motor windings must be observed and eval-
uated.
l
The holding brakes are designed as standstill brakes and are not suited for repeated oper-
ational braking.
l
The conformity of the servo system to the standards mentioned in the CE Declaration of
Conformity (
➜
# 207) is only guaranteed when the components (servo amplifier, motor,
cables etc.) that are used have been supplied by Kollmorgen.
1.2.3 Prohibited use
l
The use of the Standard Motors is prohibited
o
directly on mains supply networks,
o
in areas where there is a risk of explosions,
o
in contact with food and beverage,
o
in environments with caustic and/or electrically conducting acids, bases, oils, vapors,
dusts.
l
The use of the Washdown Motors is prohibited
o
directly on mains supply networks,
o
in areas where there is a risk of explosions,
o
in contact with food and beverage,
o
in environments with acids or bases with pH value below 2 or above 12,
o
in environments with acids or bases that have not been tested by Kollmorgen.
l
The use of the Washdown Food Motors is prohibited
o
directly on mains supply networks,
o
in areas where there is a risk of explosions,
o
in direct contact with food and beverage.
l
Commissioning the motor is prohibited if the machine in which it was installed
o
does not meet the requirements of the EC Machinery Directive,
o
does not comply with the EMC Directive,
o
does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive.
l
Built-in holding brakes without further equipment must not be used to ensure functional
safety.
