These motors are intended for all travel, lifting and turning motions in industrial
applications. Compliance with the permitted operating conditions must be ensured
for operation of these drives (e.g. enclosure type, ambient temperature, site
altitude).
Under certain conditions, operation of standard motors is prohibited as this can
result in malfunctions, equipment failure or danger to life and limb, e.g. in the case
of:
• Areas where acidic, corrosive air is used as a coolant.
• Operation outside the permissible temperature range.
• Operation outside the normal air pressure range. Otherwise, power adjustments
are necessary.
• Operation under conditions of high humidity or splashwater.
• Manipulation of electric components.
Safety devices must not be rendered inoperable or modified or used in any way
other than that for which they have been designed.
When work is carried out on or with the machine, the following protective
equipment is recommended to be worn according to the owner's hazard
assessment:
• Protective clothing, closely fitting working clothes (low tear strength, no loose
sleeves, no rings or any other jewellery, etc.);
• Safety shoes to protect against falling parts and against slipping;
• Safety helmet to be worn by everybody in the danger zone.
