Shaft Seals
You may install the optional shaft seal to protect the front bearing from fluids or fine dust that could
contaminate the motor bearing and reduce its lifetime. The IP rating for the motor depends on the
usage of shaft seals.
Refer to these sections for additional information:
• Shaft Seal Kits on page 23 lists catalog numbers of seal kits available for your motor.
• Specifications on page 22 briefly describes IP ratings.

Requirements for Motor Mounting
All TL-Series motors include a mounting pilot for aligning the motor on a machine. Preferred
fasteners are stainless steel. The installation must comply with all local regulations and use of
equipment and installation practices that promote electromagnetic compatibility and safety.
ATTENTION
Unmounted motors, disconnected mechanical couplings, loose shaft keys, and
disconnected cables are dangerous if power is applied.
Disassembled equipment should be appropriately identified (tagged-out) and
have access to electrical power restricted (locked-out).
Before applying power to the motor, remove the shaft key and other mechanical
couplings that could be thrown from the shaft.
Failure to observe these safety procedures could result in personal injury.
