Use As Directed; Prohibited Use - Kollmorgen AKM Series Instruction Manual

Safety
10.2

Use as directed

— The AKM series of synchronous servomotors is designed especially for drives for in-
dustrial robots, machine tools, textile and packing machinery and similar with high
requirements for dynamics.
— The user is only permitted to operate the motors under the ambient conditions
which are defined in this documentation.
— The use of Washdown motors is allowed in environments with caustic acids and ba-
ses with respect to the defined conditions in chapter 12.6 on page 46.
— The use of Washdown Food motors is allowd in applications with indirect contact to
food and beverage.
— The AKM series of motors is exclusively intended to be driven by servo amplifiers
under speed and / or torque control.
— The motors are installed as components in electrical apparatus or machines and can
only be commissioned and put into operation as integral components of such appa-
ratus or machines.
— The thermal sensor which is integrated in the motor windings must be observed and
evaluated.
— The holding brakes are designed as standstill brakes and are not suited for repeated
operational braking.
— The conformity of the servo-system to the standards mentioned in the EC Declarati-
on of Conformity on page 36 is only guaranteed when the components (servo am-
plifier, motor, cables etc.) that are used have been supplied by us.
10.3

Prohibited use

— The use of the Standard Motoren is prohibited
- directly on mains supply networks,
- in areas where there is a risk of explosions,
- in contact with food and beverage,
- in environments with caustic and/or electrically conducting acids, bases, oils,
vapors, dusts.
— The use of the Washdown Motoren is prohibited
- directly on mains supply networks,
- in areas where there is a risk of explosions,
- in contact with food and beverage,
- in environments with acids or bases with pH value below 2 or above 12,
- in environments with acids or bases that have not been tested by Kollmorgen.
— The use of the Washdown Food Motoren is prohibited
- directly on mains supply networks,
- in areas where there is a risk of explosions,
- in direct contact with food and beverage.
— Commissioning the motor is prohibited if the machine in which it was installed
- does not meet the requirements of the EC Machinery Directive,
- does not comply with the EMC Directive,
- does not comply with the Low Voltage Directive.
— Built-in holding brakes without further equipment must not be used to ensure functio-
nal safety.
