General information and s afety n otes 1.3 Intended use The external encoder components are manufactured out of the following materials: • Torque arm, hollow shaft and clamping ring: V2A • Enclosure: Die cast zinc Z410 • Flange: AlCu6BiPb, AlMgSiSnBi or AlCu4PbMgMn The geared motor is only safe when used together with a suitable encoder evaluation and motor protection evaluation.
Securing functional safety General information The functional safety complies with the relevant standards for safety-relevant applications. WARNING Non-compliance with warning information The functional safety can be disabled if the warning information and notes are not observed. Comply with valid regulations and operating instructions. WARNING Non-compliance with the definition of correct use The functional safety can be disabled if the information regarding correct use is not...

Resonance effects must be excluded. Optimize, for example, the controller parameters through an appropriate setpoint filtering. For the geared motor with the encoder, Siemens AG assumes responsibility that the directives of functional safety are complied with. The safety-relevant connection elements are sealed before delivery.
Page 13
The responsibility and liability regarding the functional safety and its associated traceability is completely transferred over to the operating company: • If the operating company damages the seal that was applied by Siemens AG. • If the operating company carries out work in the area around the seal.
Securing functional safety 2.2 Unpacking Unpacking NOTICE Transport damage impairs the correct functioning of the geared motor. Never commission faulty or defective geared motors. Check the geared motor for completeness and for damage. Report any missing parts or damage immediately. Keep the connector protection cap of the encoder on the connector until you connect the encoder to a suitable encoder evaluation unit.
