Guidelines for Installation
Observe the following for installing the motor.
1. Allow sufficient clearances in the area of the motor for it to stay within
its specified operating temperature range. Refer to Receiving and
Maintenance Information on page 2 for operating range. Do not
enclose the motor unless forced air is blown across the motor for
cooling. A fan blowing air across the motor will improve its
performance. Keep other heat producing devices away from the motor.
2. Refer to Mounting Dimensions on page 8 to determine the mounting
dimensions of your motor.
3. Place the motor with connectors pointing downward.
4. Properly mount and align the motor.
5. Attach all power and encoder cables after the motor is mounted and
use a drip loop in the cable to keep liquids flowing away from the
connectors.
ATTENTION
!
Outer surfaces of motor can reach high
temperatures, 100° C (212° F) during motor
operation.
Take precautions to prevent accidental contact with
hot surfaces. Consider motor surface temperature
when selecting motor mating connections and
cables.
Failure to observe these safety procedures could
result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
