Chapter 3 • Transport and storage
During transport and storage, the product must be protected against undue stress (mechanical loads, temperature,
moisture, corrosive atmospheres, etc.).
If necessary, also protect existing electrostatically sensitive components such as the encoders in motors against
electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Never use attachment parts (cable connection, terminal boxes, fans, etc.) for securing during transport or as sup-
porting surfaces.
Transport and storage conditions
•
The room must be dry, dust-free and free of vibrations.
•
The room must be well ventilated and free from drafts.
•
The air in the room is not permitted to contain aggressive or hazardous gases.
Storage and transport conditions
Storage temperature
-20 to 60°C
Relative humidity during storage
Max. 90%, non-condensing
Transport temperature
-20 to 60°C
Relative humidity during transport
Max. 90%, non-condensing
Radial or axial forces on the shaft
Caution!
Damage to property due to excessive radial or axial forces on the shaft.
Excessive radial or axial forces on the shaft can damage the bearing and impair the effect of any holding
brake present to such an extent that the braking effect is non-existent or reduced. Similarly, encoder
errors or damage to the gearbox can occur as a result.
•
Transport and store the product only in its original packaging and lying on the housing.
•
Avoid pressure and impact on the shaft end and housing.
•
Do not use the shaft for securing during transport.
•
Transport and lift heavy output shaft components separately and not installed on the shaft end.
Transport
Check product deliveries immediately for transport damage and report any damage immediately to the carrier. In
the event of damage, discontinue use where applicable.
Danger!
Danger of injury due to loads!
Suspended loads can lead to personal injury or death if they fall down. Heavy loads can tilt and trap
people or severely injure them.
Failure to comply with instructions, guidelines and regulations or use of unsuitable or damaged tools
and devices can result in serious injury and/or damage to property.
•
Motors should only be lifted without any additional load from other products (e.g. gears, pulleys,
couplings, etc.).
•
If motors have eye bolts, only lift the motors using the eye bolts.
•
Only use permitted lifting, transport and aids with sufficient lifting capacity.
•
Never stand in the danger zone or under suspended loads.
•
Secure the product against dropping and tilting.
•
Wear safety shoes, protective clothing and a safety helmet.
•
Comply with the national and local regulations.
