ASSEMBLY, STORAGE, PREPARATION AND
INSTALLATION
Comply with all safety and warning information contained in the individual chapters.
7.1
Transport of the gearbox
Danger of falling loads
1)
•
The eyebolts must be screwed completely.
2)
•
Do not pull diagonally from the golfers.
For transport use only the eyebolts screwed to the gearbox. In the case of gear motors, also use
the possible eyebolt applied to the motor.
Transport the gearbox carefully. Backlashes at free shaft ends cause damage inside the gearbox.
7.2
Storage
For short storage periods before commissioning, observe the following:
•
store in the correct mounting position ((see Chapter 7.1 "Mounting and maintenance
positions")) and ensure the gearbox against falls,
•
lightly oil the unpainted carcase surfaces and shafts,
•
storing in dry environments,
•
the ambient temperature shall not vary and shall be between - 5 °C and + 50 °C,
•
the relative humidity of the air must be less than 60 %,
•
do not expose directly to sunlight or ultraviolet light,
•
no corrosive or aggressive substances must be present in the surrounding area
(contaminated air, ozone, gases, solvents, acids, alkaline solutions, salts, radioactivity,
etc.),
•
do not subject to vibration or shock.
7.3
Long-term storage
In case of storage or closure of more than 9 months, TEM recommends the long-term storage
option. With the measurements below, a storage of about 2 years is possible. As maximum
storage times are hugely influenced by environment conditions, the indicated times should only
be considered as reference values.
Gearbox status and place of storage for long-term storage before commissioning:
•
Store in the mounting position and ensure gearbox against falls.
•
Any damage to the paint layer due to transport shall be repaired. It shall be verified that
adequate anti-rust has been applied to flange surfaces and shaft ends and, if necessary,
that one suitable for such surfaces has been applied.
•
The gearbox must be hermetically sealed.
•
Store in dry environments.
•
In tropical areas, it is necessary to protect the motor from insects.
•
The ambient temperature shall not change and shall be between - 5 °C and + 40 °C,
•
The relative humidity of the air must be less than 60 %.
•
Do not expose directly to sunlight or ultraviolet light.
