Storage
If you do not install the gearbox immediately, provide for proper storage conditions.
¯
Generally
–
Store gearboxes indoors in a dry, clean (low−dust) and sunlight−protected
environment.
–
The storage location must be free from vibrations and shocks (V
eff
< 0.2 mm/s)
in order to prevent roller bearing standstill damage.
–
Temperature changes with condensate formation are to be avoided.
–
Do not activate ventilation unit, in order to prevent air exchange with the
ambient air.
¯
Up to one year:
–
Store gearboxes with a ventilation unit with the vent plug on top.
–
Shafts and uncoated surfaces are delivered in a protected against rust status.
Aftertreatment is required where the corrosion protection has been damaged.
–
Remove the plug for motors with condensation drain holes (option) (
¯
More than one year, up to two years:
–
Apply a long−term corrosion preventive (e.g. Anticorit BW 366 by Fuchs) to the
shafts and uncoated surfaces before storing the motor away.
–
Install gearbox in mounting position M1[A].
–
Fill gearbox up to the top vent hole / oil hole with the oil grade specified (see
nameplate). Then mount the locking screw and ventilation unit (do not activate)
again.
Corrosion protection
Lenze offers paints with different resistance characteristics for drive systems. Since the
resistance may be reduced when the paint coat is damaged, defects in paint work (e.g.
through transport or assembly) must be removed professionally to reach the required
corrosion resistance.
Note!
Increased surface and corrosion protection can be achieved by using
adapted coating systems.
Mechanical installation
¯
Provide for careful handling and avoid mechanical overload. During handling
neither bend components, nor change the insulation distances.
