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. Using the shipping papers, check whether all of the motor components are available for
assembly.
● For vertical installation, use all of the eyebolts provided and when necessary, hoisting
straps (DIN EN 1492-1) and/or lashing straps (DIN EN 12195-2) to stabilize the position
of the motor.
● 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 discharged air directly – also from
adjacent equipment.
● Avoid exposing them to direct, intense solar radiation, rain, snow, ice, or also dust for
extended periods. Attach a covering structure or an additional cover when using or
storing outdoors.
● Do not exceed the permissible axial and radial forces.
● Only use explosion-protected machines in appropriate areas in accordance with
directive 1999/92/EC.
If the certification is supplemented by an X, please note the special conditions in the EC
type examination certificate. Special conditions for explosion-proof machines (Page 18)
● When installing electrical systems in hazardous zones, observe EN/IEC 60079-14 and
the corresponding country regulations.
