Protection against humidity
If a dry storage area is not available, then take the following precautions:
● Wrap the motor in humidity-absorbent material. Then wrap it in foil so that it is air tight.
● Include several bags of desiccant in the sealed packaging. Check the desiccant and
replace it as required.
● Place a humidity meter in the sealed packaging to indicate the level of air humidity
inside it.
● Inspect the motor on a regular basis.
Protecting the cooling system for motors with integrated cooling
Before you store the motor after use, perform the following actions:
● Empty the cooling channels.
● Blow out the cooling ducts with dry, compressed air so that the cooling ducts are
completely empty.
● Seal the connections of the cooling system.
