WARNING
Ensure safe condition for cleaning work
Basically, electronic devices are not fail-safe. The condition is al-
ways safe when the unit is switched off and not energized. For
cleaning work, bring the connected motors and the machine into
a safe state.
Carrying cleaning work during operation can lead to serious or fa-
tal injuries.
Beckhoff recommends regular maintenance in order to prevent per-
manent damage to the system. Contamination, dust or chips can
have a negative effect on the function of the components. In the
worst case, contamination can lead to failure. Therefore, clean and
maintain the components at regular and necessary intervals.
Avoid damaging the seals
When using cleaning agents, make sure that they are compatible
with the material of the guide rollers and the VMQ silicone sealing
material.
Unsuitable cleaning agents can damage the guide rollers and
seals.
All XTS Hygienic components are chemically resistant and can be
