3. Installation
Installation conditions
Install the motor and capacitor in a location that meets the following conditions.
Using the motor and capacitor in a location that does not satisfy these conditions could damage it.
◆

(‒10°C (14°F) ~ +50°C (122°F) for 100/200V)
◆
Ambient humidity: 85% max. (avoid condensation)
◆
Not exposed to explosive, flammable, or corrosive gases
◆
Not exposed to direct sunlight
◆
Not exposed to dust
◆
Not exposed to water or oil

A place where heat can escape easily
◆
Not exposed to continuous vibration or excessive impact
◆
1000m or less above sea level
3. 1 Install the motor
1) Assembling the Motor and Gearhead (For only separate type)
Use the gearhead of the
BH6G2
type. Confirm gearhead compatibility by checking the table in section
For the detail of assembling the motor and gearhead, see the operating manual of gearhead.
2) Installing the motor

Hexagonal nuts
Mounting screws
(M8 hexagonal
socket-head screws)
Drill holes in the mounting plate and fasten the motor to the mounting plate with
the provided mounting screws, hexagonal nuts, washers and spring washers.
Be sure that no gaps are left between the gearhead and the surface of the
mounting.
Mounting plate thickness is 10mm (0.393in.) when using the provided
mounting screws.

Note
・
For
BH6G2-

, when using the gearhead flange to mount the
gearhead to equipment, proper alignment between the hollow shaft
inside dimension and the load shaft is necessary.
・
The diameter of the boss of the shaft is Ø58h8, use it as a guide for
proper alignment.

Note
Do not insert the motor into the mounting hole at an angle or force it in,
as this may scratch the flange pilot section and damage the motor.
3) Cooling fan
When installing a motor with a cooling fan onto a device, leave 10mm (0.393in.) or more behind the fan cover or open a ventilation hole so
that the cooling inlet on the back of the motor cover is not blocked.
3. 2 Mounting the capacitor (For only single-phase motors)
Ø4.3
(.169DIA.)
Before mounting the provided capacitor, check that the capacitor’s capacitance matches that stated on the motor’s
name plate.
Use M4 screws to mount the capacitor (screws not provided).
∗
Dimensions in millimeters (inch).
Note
・
Do not let the screw fastening torque exceed 1N·m (8.8lb-in) to prevent damage to the mounting feet.
・
Mount capacitor at least 10cm (3.94in.) away from the motor. If it is located closer, the life of the capacitor
will be shortened.
