4. Installation
Common
DANGER
- Do not use a standard unit in an explosive atmosphere (which is likely to be lled with explosive gas or steam). Under
such conditions, an explosion proof motor should be used; otherwise, electric shock, personal injury, explosion re, or
damage to the equipment may result.
- In the case of a
Explosion proof motor , use a motor that has specications that are appropriate for a dangerous location
(a location where gas or volatile vapor is present); otherwise explosion, ignition, electric shock, injury, re, or equipment
damage may result.
- Since the inverter itself is not explosion proof,
when a ameproof motor is driven by an inverter install an inverter in a place
free from explosive gas; otherwise, electric shock, personal injury, explosion re, or damage to the equipment may result.
CAUTION
- Do not use the products for purposes other than those shown on the nameplate or in the manufacturing specications;
otherwise, electric shock, personal injury, or damage to the equipment may result.
- Do not place ammable objects around the gearmotor; otherwise, re may result.
- Do not place any object around the gearmotor or reducer that will hinder ventilation. Insucient ventilation can cause
excessive heat build-up that may result in burns or re.
- Do not step on or hang from the gearmotor or reducer; otherwise injury may result.
- Do not touch the shaft end of the gearmotor or reducer, inside keyways, or the edge of the motor cooling fan with
bare hands; otherwise, injury may result.
- When the unit is used in food processing applications, machines for cleanroom and so on, vulnerable to oil
contamination, install an oil pan or other such device to cope with oil leakage due to breakdown or failure; otherwise, oil
leakage may damage products.
- Always drain oil lubricated models before mounting, moving, and transporting. Moving with lubricating oil in the
machine may cause oil to escape from the air vent, etc.
4-1 Installation Location
Ambient temperature: −10 to +40
℃
Ambient humidity: Maximum 85
％
Altitude: Maximum 1,000 m
Atmosphere: No corrosive or volatile gases, no steam
Dust-free, well-ventilated area.
Installation location: Indoor type: Indoors (area with minimal dust, no contact with water)
Outdoor type: Indoors or outdoors (place where are got wet with common rainwater not but direct heavy
wind and rain)
Vibration: Maximum 1G
- Mounting in conditions other than the above requires adherence to optional specications. Please consult with us.
- Drives built to specications, such as explosion proong, can be used in the specied mounting environments. However, concerning
the connector to the machine used, implement measures based on the mounting environment.
- Mount in a location that enables easy operation, such as inspection and maintenance.
- Mount on a suciently rigid base.
4-2 Mounting Angle
Table 4-1 Mounting Angle
Grease lubricated
machines
Long-life grease models
(Except SK series)
Free
Machine types other than
the above
Slow speed shaft is horizontal or vertical (depends on nomenclature. See P5.
Please consult with us for inclined mounting).
Oil lubricated machines
Slow speed shaft is horizontal or vertical (depends on nomenclature. See P5.
Please consult with us for inclined mounting).
For machines built to a specied mounting angle, only use the specied mounting angle.
Do not remove the motor’s eye-bolt. In the rare case that it is removed, insert a bolt or other appropriate material into the screw
hole to prevent water or other substances from entering the motor through the screw hole.
