Drive Installation

Fork Lift Trucks

A single fork lift truck may be used on drives not exceeding 3 m (120 inches) in
length if the lift truck has sufficient lifting capacity. Larger drives can be moved
with two forklift trucks operating in tandem.

1.

Insert forks into openings of shipping skids from the rear of the drive.

2.

Carefully balance the drive on the forks because the drives are usually
heavier at one side.

3.

Use safety straps when handling to steady the drive while moving.

Storage

If it is necessary to store the drive, be certain to store in a clean dry dust free area.

Storage temperature should be maintained between -40°C (-40°F) and 70°C
(185°F). If storage temperature fluctuates or if humidity exceeds 85%, space
heaters should be used to prevent condensation. The drive should be stored in a
heated building having adequate air circulation. The drive must never be stored
outdoors.

Siting of the Drive

Site Considerations

The standard environment in which the equipment is designed to operate is:

Elevation above sea level less than 1000 meters (3250 feet)

Ambient air temperature between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F)

Relative humidity of the air not to exceed 95% non-condensing

For the equipment to operate in conditions other than those specified consult the
local Rockwell Automation Sales office.

The equipment requires the following site conditions:

(A)

Indoor installation only, no dripping water or other fluids

(B)

Clean air for cooling requirements

(C)

Level floor for anchoring the equipment. Refer to dimension drawings for
the location of the anchoring points.

(D)

The room in which the equipment is located must allow for full opening of
the doors of the equipment, typically 1200 mm (48 inches). Also,
allowances have to be made for clearance for fan removal. This fan
allowance must be greater than 700 mm (27.5 inches).
