Siemens SIMOTICS SD - Installing the Machine; Preparing the Assembly Area; Lift the Machine to Where It will be Mounted and Position It

5.3 Installing the machine
5.3.1 Preparing the assembly area
1. Prepare a suitable assembly area (e.g. assembly stands). Make sure that the assembly area
has su󹪟cient clearance from the 󹪞oor for the DE shaft end. The necessary data is provided
in the machine dimension drawing.
2. Refer to the shipping documents to check that all motor components are available for
assembly.
5.3.2 Lift the machine to where it will be mounted and position it
• For vertical installation, use all the eyebolts provided and when necessary, hoisting straps
according to EN1492-1 and/or lashing straps according to EN12195-2 to stabilize the
position.
• Prevent foreign bodies from falling into the fan cover. For vertical machine installation with
the shaft end facing downwards, attach a protective canopy.
• If the shaft extension is facing upwards, the user must prevent liquid from moving along the
shaft and entering the motor.
• Clean bare metal surfaces with anti-corrosion agent using mineral spirits to ensure proper
installation and/or machine mounting.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation. Do not draw in the hot discharged air directly – also from
adjacent equipment.
• Avoid exposing them to direct, intense solar radiation, rain, snow, ice, or also dust for
extended periods. Attach a covering structure or an additional cover when using or storing
outdoors.
• Do not exceed the permissible axial and radial forces.
• When clouds or layers of dust are present, strictly maintain the temperature limits according
to EN/IEC 60079-14. The maximum surface temperature is stamped on the rating plate for
dust explosion-proof motors.
