WARNING
Risk of death and material damage as a result of incorrect use
There is a risk of death, serious injury and/or material damage when direct drives or
their components are used for a purpose for which they were not intended.
• Only use the motors for industrial or commercial plants and systems.
• Do not install the motors in hazardous zones if the motors have not been expressly
and explicitly designed and authorized for this purpose. Carefully observe any
special additional notes provided.
• Only use direct drives and their components for applications that Siemens has
explicitly specified.
• Protect the motors against dirt and contact with corrosive substances.
• Ensure that the installation conditions comply with the rating plate specifications
and the condition specifications contained in this documentation. Where relevant,
take into account deviations regarding approvals or country-specific regulations.
• Contact your local Siemens office if you have any questions relating to correct use.
• If you wish to use special versions and design versions whose technical details vary
from the motors described in this document, then you must contact your local
Siemens office.
WARNING
Danger to life for wearers of active implants due to magnetic and electrical fields
Electric motors pose a danger to people with active medical implants, e.g. cardiac
stimulators, who come close to the motors.
• If you are affected, keep a minimum distance of 800 mm from the motors (tripping
threshold for static magnetic fields of 0.5 mT according to Directive 2013/35/EU).
In conjunction with the SINAMICS S120 drive system, segment motors are suitable as
direct drives for rotary motion, e.g. for:
• Rotary indexing tables for milling and turning applications
• Oscillating motion (e.g. drives for radar systems, antennas, observatories)
• Applications with high process torques
• Rotary indexing machines
• Roller and cylinder drives
