Use As Directed - Kollmorgen AKMH Series Instruction Manual

10.2 Use as directed

The AKMH series of synchronous servomotors is designed especially for drives for food
l
& beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical machinery and similar with high requirements for
hygienics and dynamics.
The use of AKMH motors is allowed in applications with indirect contact to food and bev-
l
erage. The motors are acceptable for use in food splash zones. When applying in these
applications, the tubing option over the motor cable is required (see Connection Options
(➜ # 41)).
The user is only permitted to operate the motors under the ambient conditions which are
l
defined in this documentation.
The use of AKMH motors is allowed in environments with caustic acids and bases with
l
respect to the defined conditions in chapter Hygienic Design (➜ # 44).
The AKMH series of motors is exclusively intended to be driven by drives under speed
l
and / or torque control.
The motors are installed as components in electrical apparatus or machines and can only
l
be commissioned and put into operation as integral components of such apparatus or
machines.
The thermal sensor which is integrated in the motor windings must be connected and eval-
l
uated.
The holding brakes are designed as standstill brakes and are not suited for repeated oper-
l
ational braking.
The conformity of the servo system to the standards mentioned in the EC Declaration of
l
Conformity (➜ # 70) is only guaranteed when the components (drive, motor, cables etc.)
that are used have been supplied by us.
EHEDG applications
Observe the allowed mounting positions depending on the flange type (B5, B14, V18
l
according to EN 60034-7), see (➜ # 46).
Mount the cable exit in the "down" or "side" region and install the cable with a drip-loop to
l
promote drainage after washdown.
Use o-ring for face or flange interface at motor mounting.
l
Use sealed screws for motor mounting (mounting kit).
l
Cover the shaft center hole with a sealed screw (mounting kit) if the shaft end is exposed.
l
Avoid direct contact of metal to metal when mounting or connecting the motor.
