Long-term storage
General information
Additional protection and conservation measures become necessary if the stor-
age period exceeds 6 months. The following points must be observed and are
valid for all machine parts.
• Protect the parts against mechanical damage and deposits.
• Protect the parts against direct sunlight and humidity.
• The optimum storage temperature is between -10 °C and +25 °C.
• The relative air humidity should be below 65 %.
• Check the coat of paint as well as the corrosion protection of the bright sur-
faces and repair them, if required.
For motors, geared motors, gear units and couplings, refer to the operating in-
structions of the respective manufacturer. These documents are included in the
annex to these operating instructions.
Anti-friction bearings
In case machine parts with anti-friction bearings are stored for a longer period,
the lubricant may be deposited on one side. Due to this, condensed water may
accumulate in the bearings, resulting in corrosion damage.
In order to ensure an equal distribution of the lubricant, the anti-friction
bearings must be turned by hand every 3 to 6 months.
