Demounting
WARNING
Unexpected movement of components.
Injury due to impacts or crushing.
• Before working on the product, switch off the control and secure it to prevent it
from being switched back on accidentally.
WARNING
Risk of Injury due to Unexpected Movement of Components
For vertical or slanted mounting position: when power is off, moving parts can
travel or fall uncontrolled into the lower end position.
• Bring moving parts of the product into a safe end position or secure them
against falling.
Demount drive system
1. Allow the product to cool down to room temperature.
2. Disconnect electrical installations.
3. Remove the mounted attachment component.
4. Remove the attached accessories.
5. Remove the mounting attachments.
6. Observe transport information
Remove drive or integrated drive EMCS

Calculating the load comparison factor
fv
1) Maximum value for Force at level 10
2) Force is controlled and evaluated by closed-loop control of the motor current. Depending on the mecha-
nism of the drive, a linear force can be calculated from the measured level of current. The target is set as
a percentage of the rated motor current and may differ from the actual force at the electric cylinder. At the
lower force levels the frictional force of the drive system may be greater than the set feed force and may
result in the drive system coming to a standstill.
3) The force acts on the stop for
£
100 ms
4) Maximum value for Speed In/Speed Out at level 10
5) Unchangeable parameter.
6) Distance (MechIn – LimIn or MechOut – LimOut)
