Installation Place
Since the conditions of location affect a lot to the motor life, select a place which meets the conditions below.
1) Indoors, where the products are not subjected to rain or direct sun beam. The products are not water-
proof.
2) Where the products are not subjected to corrosive atmospheres such as hydrogen sulfide, sulfurous acid,
chlorine, ammonia, chloric gas, sulfuric gas, acid, alkaline and salt and so on, and are free from splash of
inflammable gas, grinding oil, oil mist, iron powder or chips and etc.
3) Where the motor is free from grinding oil, oil mist, iron powder or chips.
4) Well-ventilated and humid and dust-free place, far apart from the heat source such as a furnace.
5) Easy-to-access place for inspection and cleaning.
6) Vibration-free place.
7) Avoid enclosed place. Motor may gets hot in those enclosure and shorten the motor life.
Environmental Conditions
*1 Ambient temperature to be measured at 5cm away from the motor.
*2 Permissible temperature for short duration such as transportation.
How to Install
You can mount the motor either horizontally or vertically as long as you observe the followings.
1) Horizontal mounting
    • Mount the motor with cable outlet facing downward for water/oil countermeasure.
2) Vertical mounting
    • Use the motor with oil seal (non-standard) when mounting the motor with gear reducer to prevent the
      reducer oil/grease from entering to the motor.
3) For mounting dimensions, refer to P.195 to 209 "Dimensions".
Oil/Water Protection
1) Don't submerge the motor cable to water or oil.
2) Install the motor with the cable outlet facing downward.
3) Avoid a place where the motor is subjected to oil or water.
4) Use the motor with an oil seal when used with the gear reducer, so that
the oil may not enter to the motor through shaft.
