Notes on connection / installation
NOTICE
Improper mounting of the water cooling cover may result in damage to the gear unit.
Possible damage to property.
- Using thread seal tape on the pipe threads increases the resistance between the connection parts as well as the risk of cracking in the water cooling cover. Do not tighten the threads too tightly.
- Use only piping and mounting parts of the same or of compatible material for the connection.
- Make sure the cooling water pressure does not exceed 6 bar.
- In the event of frost or longer idle states, drain the cooling water from the cooling circuit. Use compressed air to remove any remaining water.
The following measures are recommended by SEW-EURODRIVE to ensure proper functioning in different systems:
- Install a safety valve in the cooling water supply pipe for protection against severe deviations in the flow rate or pressure.
- Install a filter into the cooling water supply pipe, especially if the cooling water is obtained from sources other than the municipal water supply system.
- Install an automatic throttle valve in the respective inlet to compensate for overpressure.
