Installation of gear unit on housing base

6.3.1

Foundation

The foundation should be designed in such a way that no resonance vibrations are created and that no
vibrations are transmitted from adjacent foundations. The structure on which the unit is to be mounted must
be rigid. It must be designed according to the weight and torque, taking into account the forces acting on
the gear unit.
Careful alignment with the units on the in­ and output sides must be ensured. Any elastic deformation
through operating forces must be taken into consideration.
Fastening bolts or nuts must be tightened to the prescribed torque. For the correct
torque, refer to item 6.24. Bolts of the minimum strength class 8.8 must be used.
If external forces are acting upon the gear unit, it is advisable to prevent the unit from displacement by
means of lateral stops.
For dimensions, space requirement and arrangement of supply connections, refer to the
drawings in the gear­unit documentation.

Description of installation work

The gear unit must not be cleaned in an explosive environment.
Remove the preservative agent on the shafts with suitable cleaning agent such as benzine.
Do not allow the cleaning agent (e.g. benzine) to contact the shaft­sealing rings.
Observe the manufacturer s instructions for handling cleaning agents!
Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not smoke!
Danger of explosion!
Fit and secure input and output drive elements (e.g. coupling components) on the shafts.
If these are to be heated before mounting, refer to the dimensioned drawings in the coupling
documentation for the correct joining temperatures.
Unless otherwise specified, the components may be heated inductively, with a burner, or in a furnace.
Take precautions to avoid burns from hot parts!
Wear suitable protective gloves!
Protect
(use heat­protective screens to protect against radiant heat.)
