INSTALLATION
8.1
Mechanical installation
Before installation check that:
1)
the electric motor is not visibly damaged (damage from transport or storage).
2)
the registration plate data are consistent with the characteristics of use of the motor and
the application for which it is intended; the supply voltage must correspond to the
indications on the data plate.
3)
the environment temperature is within the range 0 º C to 40 º C;
4)
relative humidity is less than 85%;
5)
the IP protection degree indicated on the electric motor is suitable for the installation
environment according to IEC 60034-5;
Before each operation, disconnect the motor and its equipment from the
mains. It has dangerous rotating parts, remove the protections only by motor
disconnected from the network and with parts not in motion.
Attention the motor can reach in the external surfaces in contact with the
operator, high temperatures. Handle only with cold motor.
Attention the motor has sharp parts that can cause injuries. Use special
protective gloves.
Beware the keyless motor drive shaft has sharp edges.
Preliminary work:
1)
remove any blockages or protections or packaging used for transport (e.g. motor shaft
end protection) and check that the driveshaft rotates freely in its seat.
2)
verify, in particular after a long storage period, that the motor is not wet or with rust.
