Recommended Storage of Overhead Magnets
1) On a self-cleaner, remove tension from drive belts and conveyor belts.
2) It is essential to keep moisture out of magnet cooling oil.
3) The following precautionary procedures are recommended:
a) Store magnet indoors in a low humidity, even temperature environment if possible.
b) Keep water and any other form of moisture away from the magnet while in storage.
4) This is a procedure for indoor storage only. Outdoor storage is definitely not advised and
will null and void our warranty on the magnet assembly.
5) Self-Cleaning Belt:
All belting should be stored in a cool, dry room, free from sunlight, steam pipes, oil, water,
moisture, and corrosive fumes.

PERIODICALLY INSPECT STORED OR INACTIVE DRIVES AND SPRAY OR ADD RUST
INHIBITOR EVERY SIX MONTHS, OR MORE OFTEN IF NECESSARY. INDOOR DRY
STORAGE IS RECOMMENDED.
7) Motor:
(One year or less.) Units should be stored indoors, in a clean, dry location. Winding should
be protected from excessive moisture absorption.
8) Bearings:
Rotate bearings every three months.
9) Rectifiers:
a) It is mandatory that the rectifier be stored indoors away from water and moisture.
b) It is recommended that the rectifier be put in a plastic, tightly sealed cover or bag to
