The components for motor versions with encoder are matched and paired with each other. Install them in the paired state. BESIDES SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS IN RESPECT TO HEALTH AND SAFETY, THE «EC FRAMELESS DT» MUST BE INSTALLED IN A PARTICULAR AND SPECIFIC WAY. FOR BOTH SAFE AND EASY INSTALLATION AS WELL AS RELIABLE OPERATION CLOSELY FOLLOW THE BELOW DESCRIBED INFORMATION IN GIVEN ORDER.
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING NOTICE ON THE PREREQUISITES FOR PERMISSION TO COMMENCE INSTAL- LATION. The «EC frameless DT» is considered as partly completed machinery according to EU Directive 2006/42/EC, Article 2, Clause (g) and is intended to be incorporated into or assembled with other machinery or other partly com- pleted machinery or equipment.
3.2.3 Magnetic Forces The rotor of the «EC frameless DT» is equipped with strong magnets. As a result, large forces can occur in both the axial and radial directions. Note this in particular with regard to the following topics: •...

Fixation of the rotor – recommended adhesives 3.2.6 Fixation of the Stator maxon recommends to fix the stator of the «EC frameless DT» axially using bolted connections. This axial screw con- nection also serves as a non-positive transmission of the torque. Requirements for operation Use only screws that, once installed, do not protrude the inside front face of the stator flange.
Two variants of mounting options are schematically shown below, which must be understood as a general guide. The actual conditions depend on the respective customer application. For easier differentiation, color coding is used in illustrations of individual components are shown: Stator of the «EC frameless DT» Housing (by customer) Rotor of the «EC frameless DT»...

3.4.2.1 Motor: Temperature Sensor The «EC frameless DT» is equipped with two in parallel connected temperature sensors based on the NTC thermistor principle (NTC; Negative Temperature Coefficient). The data sheet (as of page 27) shows the equivalent resistance of this parallel circuit. Thereby, a negative temperature coefficient is used, which is associated with a decreasing elec- trical resistance as the temperature increases.
Maintenance MAINTENANCE Periodic Inspection The «EC frameless DT» as a whole and its individual parts are maintenance-free. Outer body, motor shaft, and bearings are customer-made parts. For their maintenance and repair consult the relevant instructions. Thereby observe the following: If you perform maintenance on outer body, motor shaft, and bearings: •...
