Preparations for use
4
Good planning and preparation of machine applications are essential in terms of keeping
installation simple and avoiding errors, ensuring safe operation, and allowing access to the
machine for servicing and corrective maintenance.
This chapter outlines what you need to consider when configuring your plant in relation to this
machine and the preparations you need to make before the machine is delivered.
4.1 Safety-related aspects to consider when configuring the plant
A number of residual risks are associated with the machine. These are described in the chapter
titled "Safety information" and in related sections.
Take appropriate safety precautions (covers, barriers, markings, etc.) to ensure the machine
is operated safely within your plant.
Observing the operating mode
Observe the machine's operating mode. Use a suitable control system to prevent overspeeds,
thus protecting the machine from damage.
4.2 Motors without final paint coating
Motors, which are only delivered with primer, must be painted to comply with the applicable
guidelines for the specific application. The primer does not provide adequate corrosion
protection.
The paint used must fully comply with the requirements to avoid electrostatic charging (refer
to DIN EN 60079-0).
Note
The Service Center can provide recommendations for painting.
Please note that the lower side of the machine mounting feet is bare metal. Ensure that there
is adequate corrosion protection, e.g. using grease, sealing paste or a similar product. The
terminal box cover also has bare metal surfaces. Here, only use a suitable grease to guarantee
protection against corrosion.
4.3 Ensuring adequate cooling
Ensure that the machine is sufficiently cooled by the cooling air flow at the installation site:
