Gearbox and geared motor in an ATEX design
The difference between the temperature of the housing and the ambient
temperature of max. +40° C must not exceed 70 K.
Using a suitable temperature sensor, measure the temperature at the lowest point
of the housing (oil sump) or at the mounting surface in the case of output units.
We recommend that you monitor the gearbox temperature indirectly by monitoring
the motor current.
Changes are an indication of possible incipient damage.
CAUTION
Malfunctions can cause injuries or gearbox damage
In the event of changes during operation, the drive unit must be switched off immediately.
Determine the cause of the fault using the fault table (Page 67). Remedy faults or have
faults remedied.
Check the gearbox during operation for:
•
Excessive operating temperature
• Changes in gear noise
• Possible oil leakage at the housing and shaft seals
Preconditions for smooth, vibration-free operation
Comply with the maximum vibration values in operation according to ISO 20816-1. Avoid
inadmissible vibration levels caused by imbalance, for example (drive output element),
external vibration or any resonance over the complete speed range.
