Tab. 10: Direction of rotation of the KL gear unit
The specified direction of rotation also applies to other designs of the KL gear unit:
§
Design with hollow shaft (A), for which the entry side of the machine shaft corresponds to the side of the solid shaft
that is shown
§
Design with hollow shaft with shrink ring (S), for which the position of the shrink ring corresponds to the side of the
solid shaft that is shown.

Notes
In order to prevent corrosion damage and damage to the shaft seal rings, protect the drive from the following influences:
§
Environments with harmful oils, acids, gases, vapors, dust or radiation
§
Extreme temperature fluctuations with high humidity
§
Thawing or icing
§
Strong UV radiation (e.g. direct sunlight)
§
Presence of salt spray
§
Sparks
In potentially explosive atmospheres, only gear units in an explosion-proof design in accordance with (ATEX) Directive
2014/34/EU may be used. Separate documentation applies to the explosion-proof design.
