Outdoor storage
If the motor must be stored outdoors, never leave the motor
as is in the standard transport packaging. Instead the motor
must be:
• Taken out of its plastic wrap.
• Covered to completely prevent rain from entering the
motor. The cover should allow ventilation of the motor.
• Placed on at least 100 mm (4”) high rigid supports, to
ensure that no moisture can enter the motor from be-
low.
• Protected against harmful insects and vermin.
• Packed in special outdoor packaging.
Drain plugs
The motor is equipped with drain plugs to let condensa-
tion water drain out. The drain plugs should be open when
stored.
Horizontal mounting: For horizontally mounted motors,
drain plugs are fitted at each end of the motor.
Vertical mounting: For vertically mounted motors, a mini-
mum of two drain plugs are fitted on the lower end shield.
