Commissioning
6.1
Before commissioning
WARNING! Moving machine parts can cause serious injuries or even death!
Before performing work, switch
off the machine with the main switch and secure the switch from being turned on again.
Before commissioning the drive, make sure that the following prerequisites are met:
§
The drive is undamaged
§
The mechanical assembly and electrical connection of the drive has been completed
§
The drive is not blocked
§
Any present feather keys are secured against being thrown for a test run with drive elements
§
All protective devices have been properly mounted
§
All monitoring equipment is activated
§
The drive controller is adjusted so that an overload of the gear unit in relation to the permitted torque is prevented by
the motor
§
The ambient conditions are observed (see
6.2
During commissioning
WARNING! Moving machine parts can cause serious injuries or even death!
Make sure that no one is standing
in the danger area or able to enter it unchecked.
WARNING! Falling gravity-loaded axes or vertical axes can cause serious injuries or even death!
Move
gravity-loaded axes or vertical axes to their lowest position and lock or brace them mechanically before entering the danger
area.
WARNING! If the motor is in operation while plug connectors are being disconnected, electric arcs can
cause severe injury or even death.
Do not connect or disconnect the plug connectors until after the motor is de-
energized.
WARNING! Flying metal parts can cause serious injuries!
Assemble the provided power transmission elements
properly or remove the feather key before a test run.
CAUTION! The surface of the drive can reach temperatures over 65 °C during operation!
Allow the drive to
cool sufficiently before working on it. Wear gloves.
During commissioning, check the following:
§
After the any existing brakes released before starting the drive?
§
Is the direction of rotation of the drive correct?
§
When the drive is running, do any overloading, unwanted speed fluctuations, unusual noises or vibrations occur?
In case of faults, observe the chapter
Measurement of the surface temperature
For safe operation, it must be ensured that the surface temperature of the gear unit does not exceed the maximum
permitted value. For this purpose, perform measurements with a commercially available temperature measuring device.
Determine the surface temperature at the transition between gear unit and motor adapter or between gear unit and
motor.
The maximum surface temperature occurs in approx. 3 hours, depending on the utilization of the drive, and must not
exceed the maximum value of 90 °C in the event of a maximum surrounding temperature. Immediately shutdown the drive
if the maximum value is exceeded and contact STOBER Service.
