12.6 Washdown and Washdown Food
These motor variants are used in applications that are subject to strict hygiene regula
-
tions in which it is essential that the formation of nuclei and corrosion are avoided and in
which machines must be cleaned cyclically.
The motors are based on the standard types AKM2 - AKM6 with special modifications for
use in the food-processing industry or even in the packaging industry. In addition, it is
also possible to coat the flange in each case – but then it is not possible to assure toler-
ance class N for the flange.
In the type code, the coating of the motor housing (type “W” for Washdown, "F" for
Washdown Food) is defined separately in the version (last two digits) and the flange coa-
ting.
