Installation, Assembly; General Information - Siemens 1FK7 Serie Mode D'emploi

Store in a dry, low-dust and low-vibration place (v
temperatures, see Chapter 3 "Technical specifications".
Condensed water in the oil chamber of the gearbox leads to rusting, which must be avoid-
ed at all costs. Its intensity is determined by the degree of relative air humidity and large
temperature fluctuations.
It is necessary to contact SIEMENS Service if the gearbox is to be temporarily stored. If
long-term storage is foreseen, the gearbox must be completely filled with lubricant by the
manufacturer. This then has to be reduced to the correct quantity shown on the type plate
before the drive is started. The bare parts of the gearing must be conserved.

General information

Impacts on the shaft and bearings must be avoided at all costs as they damage
the bearing race. Do not exceed the permissible axial and radial forces on the
shaft end stated in the configuration specification.
The protective lacquer on the ends of the shaft and centering shoulders must be com-
pletely removed before erection/assembly.
If solvents are used, they must not be allowed to come into contact with the lip
seals of the shaft seal rings.
Mounting position, mounting location
The drive may only be mounted in the ordered mounting position.
If the mounting position is changed, the internal construction of the gearbox and the
quantity of lubricant may also have to be changed. The lubrication fittings also have to
be exchanged. In such a case, it is absolutely essential to contact SIEMENS Service.
It must be ensured that air can circulate freely in order to prevent heat
accumulating in the entire gearbox.
Bleeding
Depending upon the design /gear size, some geared motors are vented (see technical
data). The design of the venting valve for worm gears depends upon the mounting posi-
tion.
In the case of a lockable venting valve, it must be opened without fail before
starting up the drive by turning the knurled knob to the left (corresponding to the
symbol on the knurled knob).
In the case of a loosely attached venting valve, it must be exchanged in the
intended mounting position for the screw plug located in the gearbox.
