7.2.5 Temperature measurement
During the first startup and after maintenance work, the oilsump temperature must be measured during
correct use (maximum machine performance) after warming up.
DANGER
Risk of explosion
Danger to life through ignition of a potentially explosive atmosphere through overheating of the gear unit.
The maximum permissible oilsump temperature is 90 °C. (see section 8, "Operation").
At higher temperatures the gear unit must be shut down immediately and Siemens customer service
consulted.
7.2.6 Oillevel monitoring system
The gear unit have been fitted with an oillevel monitor by means of a fillinglevel limit switch. The oillevel
monitoring device has been designed for checking the oil level when the gear unit is at a standstill, prior
to operating start.
DANGER
Risk of explosion
Danger to life through ignition of a potentially explosive atmosphere through overheating of the gear unit
due to too low oil level.
Wire the signal in such a manner that the drive motor cannot start on the occurence of the signal "Oil level
too low". Bridge any such signal during operation.
7.2.7 Bearing monitoring (vibration measurement)
If measures have been taken for a vibration measurement as bearing monitoring (see item 5.15), vibration
measurements must be taken in order to obtain initial values and/or reference values for the diagnosis.
These measurement values must be recorded and filed for comparison with later measurements.
Note
The record must be kept with these instructions.
