Drive

NOTICE

Volatilization of the VCI anti-corrosion agent
Damage to property.
  • Drive units must be kept tightly closed until they are started up.

INFORMATION

For storage periods longer than 9 months, SEW‑EURODRIVE recommends the "Extended storage" design. Drive units in this design are designated with a corresponding label.

The lubricant of those drive units is then mixed with a VCI anti-corrosion agent (volatile corrosion inhibitors). Please note that this VCI anti-corrosion agent is only effective in a temperature range of -25 °C to +50 °C. The shaft ends are also treated with an anti-corrosion agent. Drive units of the "extended storage" design are equipped with OS2 surface protection without further notice. Instead of OS2, you can order OS3. For further information refer to chapter "Surface protection".
