I. Protection of Servo Motor Oil and Water
A: Servo motors can be used in places that may be exposed to water or water droplets. However, they are not fully waterproof or oil-proof. Therefore, servo motors should not be placed or used in environments where water or oil is present.
B: If a servo motor is connected to a reduction gear, oil sealing should be used when operating the servo motor to prevent the oil from the reduction gear from entering the servo motor.
C: The cable of the servo motor should not be immersed in oil or water.
II. Servo Motor Cable → Reducing Stress
A: Ensure that the cable is not subjected to torque or vertical load due to external bending force or its own weight, especially at the cable outlet or connection point.
B: When the servo motor is in motion, the cable (the one included with the motor) should be firmly fixed to a stationary part (relative to the motor) and an additional cable should be extended using a cable support to minimize bending stress.
C: The radius of the cable’s bend should be as large as possible.
III. Allowable Axial End Load of Servo Motor
A: Ensure that the radial and axial loads applied to the servo motor shaft during installation and operation are within the specified values for each model.
B: Be extra careful when installing a rigid coupling, especially excessive bending loads may cause damage or wear to the axial end and bearings.
C: It is best to use a flexible coupling to reduce the radial load below the allowable value. This is a special design for servo motors with high mechanical strength.
D: For information on allowable axial load, please refer to the “Allowable Axial Load Table” (User Manual).
IV. Servo Motor Installation注意事项
A： When installing or removing coupling components to the axial end of the servo motor， do not directly hit the axial end with a hammer. (Hitting the axial end with a hammer will damage the encoder at the other end of the servo motor shaft.)
B： Strive to align the axial end to the best position (improper alignment may cause vibration or bearing damage).
