5.3 Installing the machine

NOTICE
Damage to insulation
If the critical insulation resistance is reached or undershot, this can damage the insulation
and cause voltage flashovers.
• Contact the service center (Page 123).
• If the measured value is close to the critical value, you must subsequently check the
Limit values of the anti-condensation heating insulation resistance
It is not permissible that the insulation resistance of the anti-condensation heating with
respect to the machine enclosure falls below 1 MΩ when measured at 500 V DC.
5.3 Installing the machine
5.3.1

Preparing the assembly area

1. Prepare a suitable assembly area (e.g. assembly stands). Make sure that the assembly area
has sufficient clearance from the floor for the DE shaft end. The necessary data is provided
in the machine dimension drawing.
2. Refer to the shipping documents to check that all motor components are available for
assembly.
5.3.2

Lift the machine to where it will be mounted and position it

• For vertical installation, use all the eyebolts provided and when necessary, hoisting straps
according to DIN EN 1492-1 and/or lashing straps according to DIN EN 12195-2 to stabilize
the position.
• Prevent foreign bodies from falling into the fan cover. For vertical machine installation
with the shaft end facing downwards, attach a protective canopy.
• If the shaft extension is facing upwards, the user must prevent liquid from moving along
the shaft and entering the motor.
• Clean bare metal surfaces with anti-corrosion agent using white spirit to ensure proper
installation and / or machine mounting.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation. Do not draw in the hot discharged air directly – also from
adjacent equipment.
