7.2 Storing
Storing indoors
Bearing damage when not in use
If the motors are stored incorrectly, bearing damage can occur (e.g. brinelling) - for
example, as a result of vibration.
• Observe the instructions for putting into storage.
The motors can be stored indoors for up to 2 years without any restrictions on the specified
bearing service life at temperatures from 5 °C up to 40 °C.
● Apply a preservation agent to bare, external components. For example, use Tectyl if this
has not already been carried out in the factory.
● Store the motor in an area that fulfills the following requirements:
– The storage area must be dry, dust-free, frost-free and vibration-free
(v
rms
< 0.2 mm/s). Relative humidity should be less than 60%.
– The storage space must be well ventilated.
– The storage space must provide protection against extreme weather conditions.
– The air in the storage area must not contain any harmful gases.
● Protect the motor against shocks and humidity.
● Make sure that motor is covered properly.
● Avoid contact corrosion.
