● When installing, make sure that the permissible radial and axial forces on
the encoTRive drive shaft are not exceeded. It may be necessary to use
suitable output drive elements. Impacts and blows on the output drive
shaft must be avoided in order to prevent damage to the electromechani-
cal components.
● Guarantee of IP protection class
Unused cable openings and access points for adjusting devices must be
sealed with blanking plugs. Unused connection plugs must either be pro-
vided with a mating connector or a protective cap. The appropriate IP pro-
tection class must be selected to meet the relevant requirements.
● Higher IP protection class
If the encoTRive is operated in an environment that requires a higher pro-
tection class, sealing of the shaft and the housing transitions
(MP-
060…180 with gear) must be provided by the user, e.g. through a ra-
dial shaft seal and housing coating or using covers, which keep dust and
moisture away from the shaft outlet and housing transitions (MP-
060…180
with gear). Alternatively, the MP-200 version with gear can be used. The
information on the IP protection class in the respective product data sheet
must be observed.
● The cable outlets of the mating connectors must always be secured
against being pulled out with a cable strain relief.
● Potential hazards resulting from interactions with other systems and
equipment which are or will be installed in the vicinity must be checked.
The user is responsible for taking appropriate measures.
● Cables used must be suitable for the temperature range.
● Make sure that the installation environment is protected from aggressive
media (acids etc.)
● Opening the encoTRive is forbidden.
● The nameplate specifies the technical characteristics of the encoTRive. If
the nameplate is no longer legible or if the nameplate is completely miss-
ing, the encoTRive must not be operated.
●
The encoTRive contains components and modules that are at risk from
electrostatic discharge, and can be destroyed if not handled properly.
Avoid touching the encoTRive connectors with the fingers. The appropriate
protective measures against ESD must be applied.
●
Disposal
If disposal has to be undertaken after the lifespan of the encoTRive, the re-
spective applicable country-specific regulations are to be observed.
