NOTICE

The air motor’s maximum surface

temperature measured 71

o

C with an

ambient temperature of 21

o

C. These

measurements were taken with the air

motor running at free speed and with

air pressure at the inlet at 6.2 bar

(620 kPa/90 psig).

Elevated vibration levels of the air motor, an

indication of imbalance or potential failure of

bearings or

other mechanical components, may create an

ignition source.

1. Measure and state normal acceptable vibration

levels during operation for the completed

machine.

2. Monitor air motor shaft and housing vibration

for abnormal conditions.

Operation

Always use clean, dry, lubricated air at 6.2 bar

(620 kPa/90 psig) maximum air pressure at the

inlet. Higher pressure may result in hazardous

situations including excessive speed, or incorrect

output torque or force resulting in premature

failure of bearings or other components.

1. Refer to manufacturer’s specification supplied

with the air motor for proper airline lubrication.

Maintenance

Follow all lubrication and maintenance

recommendations as found in the manual supplied

with the air motor.

1. Do not perform maintenance or repairs in an area

where hazardous atmospheres are present.

2. Do not clean or lubricate air motor with

flammable or volatile liquids, such as kerosene,

diesel or jet fuel, which create a potentially

explosive atmosphere.

“Special Conditions” (Continued)

NOTICE

• Place the recommendations given

in these special conditions, and any

similar recommendations identified by

the explosive hazard assessment of the

complete machine, in the accompanying

literature of the machine into which the

air motor is incorporated.

• To safely use this product and conform

with the provisions of the Machinery

Directive all instructions given in the

accompanying literature, in addition

to all conditions, notices and warnings

given herein, must be followed.


The EC Declaration of Incorporation

in this manual states that the air motor

used in this machine has been reviewed

for compliance to European Community

Directive 94/9/EC for equipment for use

in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Air motors are intended to be integrated

or incorporated into a larger machine.

The motor manufacturer cannot foresee

all of the ways that this component

may be applied and, therefore, cannot

provide all of the safety aspects of the

larger, completed machine.
It remains, therefore, the responsibility

of the user to ensure that all of the

safety requirements for application,

installation, operation, inspection and

maintenance of the machine are met, in

accordance with all applicable standards

and regulations (local, state, country,

federal, etc.).
