Mount the Electric Cylinder
1. Use stainless steel fasteners to mount your electric cylinder to your application.
2. Attach power and feedback cables and use a drip loop in the cable to keep liquids away
from the motor.
BURN HAZARD: Outer surfaces of the motor can reach high temperatures, 65 °C (149 °F), during electric cylinder
operation. Take precautions to prevent accidental contact with hot surfaces. Failure to observe these safety
precautions can result in personal injury.
ATTENTION: Consider electric-cylinder surface temperature when selecting motor-mating connections and cables.
Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
ATTENTION: Keyed connectors must be properly aligned and hand-tightened the recommended number of turns.
Improper connector alignment is indicated by the need for excessive force, such as the need for the use of tools, to
fully seat connectors.
Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to the motor and cable, and their components.
ATTENTION: Be sure that cables are installed and restrained to prevent uneven tension or flexion at the cable
connectors. Excessive and uneven force at the cable connector can result in damage to the housing and contacts as
the cable flexes. Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in damage to the motor and its components.
