6 Commissioning and operation
6.1 Important notes
Stop!
The drive may only be commissioned by skilled personnel!
¯ Before commissioning remove transport locking devices and keep them for later
transports.
¯ Take safety measures prior to any operation:
– Disconnect the machine from the mains, ensure standstill of the drive system
and avoid any machine movement.
6.2 Before switching on
Check:
¯ The oil level of the gearbox after previous long−term storage!
¯ That the drive does not show any visible signs of damage.
¯ Is the mechanical fixing o.k.?
¯ Has the electrical connection been implemented correctly?
¯ Are all rotating parts and surfaces that may become hot protected against
contact?
¯ For gearboxes with ventilation:
– Has the transport locking device been removed?
Stop!
At input speeds below 200 rpm the amount of lubricant may need to be
increased. Consultation with Lenze is required.
6.3 Initial commissioning
In order to ensure trouble−free operation, carry out checks during initial commissioning.
When Check
At initial start−up Rotating direction of the drive shaft (Fig. 10)
Continuously Monitor geared motor with regard to noticeable noise, vibrations,
and changes
After 3 hours under rated load Measure housing temperature (Tab. 9) at the hottest point. The value
measured at the same time serves as a reference value for later
measurements. If necessary, implement required measures if
temperatures are rising too high, 40
Fastening elements, locking screws, and covers
Leakages: small quantities of escaping lubricant
After the first day Check oil level, 49
