DC Motors 3
Handling
In all cases, care should be taken to assure lifting in the direction intended
in the design of the lifting means. Lift using all lugs provided. Likewise,
precautions should be taken to prevent hazardous overloads due to
deceleration, acceleration or shock forces.
Angle of lift with rope or chain must be greater than 45 degrees from
horizontal.
For unusual conditions, such as side-wall and ceiling mounting of
horizontal motors or installation of vertical motors shipped in a horizontal
position, special precautions must be taken. It is recommended that an
experienced rigger be employed.
Storage
Motors must be stored in a clean, dry area protected from extremes of
temperature, moisture, shock and vibration. Storage temperatures of 10 to
49 degrees C (50 to 120 degrees F) with a maximum relative humidity of
60% must be observed. In addition, motors subjected to extended storage
must be handled and treated per the requirements specified in publication
“Motors-5.0.” This publication is available from your Allen-Bradley Sales
Office or online at: http://www.controlmatched.com.
Installation DC motors have characteristics which can cause serious or fatal injury
unless they are selected, installed, maintained and operated by qualified
personnel familiar with special requirements of DC machines.
Allen-Bradley DC motors are designed and built in accordance with Safety
Standard for Construction and Guide for Selection, Installation and Use Of
Electric Motors And Generators published by the National Electrical
Manufacturers Association (NEMA), publication MG-2-1983 (ANSI
C51.5). It is recommended that this publication be referred to whenever you
select or install any motor.
The application of motors and other electrical equipment in hazardous
locations is restricted by the National Electric Code. Users must observe
these regulations and consult with local code inspection and enforcement
agencies to insure compliance.
!
ATTENTION: Eyebolt(s) or lifting lug(s) are intended for
lifting the motor only with the standard accessories such as
tachometer, brakes, etc., mounted by Allen-Bradley. The lifting
means on the motor must not be used to lift the unit plus
additional equipment. The lifting means on the motor cannot be
used to lift assemblies or equipment mounted on a common base.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in personal injury.
