Benaming
Verklaring
S3-30%
Load cycle as defined in IEC 60034-1, Intermittent periodic operation with the
motor operational during 30% of the time as a max.
AC
Alternating Current (“wisselstroom”).
Afschermkap
Cover used to prevent direct contact between persons, rain, dust and the motor
gearbox.
Axiaal
In the longitudinal direction of the shaft.
Aanhaalmoment [Nm]
Torque to which a bolted joint has to be tightened, expressed in Newton meter.
dB(A)
Intensity of sound, expressed in decibel.
Bedrijfsurenteller
A counter that keeps the actual number of operating hours of the drive.
Bimetaal
Temperatuur beveiligingsschakelaar.
Compensatiekoppeling

power causes the brake to be engaged. When the power comes back the brake
will be disengaged again.
