Overview
Installation should conform to the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and
practices. When other devices are coupled to the motor, be sure to install protective
devices to prevent accidents. Machinery that is accessible to personnel should provide
protection in the form of guard rails, screening, warning signs etc.

protection in the form of guard rails, screening, warning signs etc.
Location
The motor should be installed in an area that is protected from direct sunlight, corrosives,
harmful gases or liquids, dust, metallic particles, welding spatters and vibration.
Exposure to these can reduce the operating life and degrade performance. Be sure to
allow clearance for ventilation and access for cleaning, repair, service and inspections.
Ventilation is extremely important. Be sure the area for ventilation is not obstructed.
Obstructions limit the free passage of air. Motors get warm and the heat must be
dissipated to prevent damage.

Clean Room
Stages prepared for Class 10, 100 and 10,000 clean room requirements can be ordered
as an option to our standard products. Materials must be suitable for the specified
environment. The customer must perform the final cleaning due to contamination during
shipping and handling.

The most common changes to the stages include the replacement of the bellows,
installation of special greases, elimination of bearing shields and the removal of other
non–critical components that may contribute to particle generation.

Mounting a Stage to the Machine Base and Payload To Stage
S
Your stage is provided with mounting holes to attach the stage to a machine base. If
your stage is supplied with bellows, you must remove the bellows to access the
mounting holes. The mounting holes are typically non–threaded, counter–bored
holes that accommodate a variety of screw sizes. It is recommended that a
hardened machine screw be used. Refer to the mechanical drawings provided with
your stage for mounting screw size and hole locations.

S
The flatness of your mounting surface will greatly influence the flatness and
straightness specification of your stage. The stage structure will tend to mirror the
flatness of the mounting surface. For the stage to maintain its specification, it must
be mounted to a surface that is flat (maximum error of 0.0005 inches per foot). A
maximum of 0.010 inches per foot is the maximum mounting surface flatness error
allowable for operation of the stage. However, at 0.010 inches per foot mounting
base flatness, the stage flatness and straightness specification will be degraded.

S
The mounting surface must be clean and free of particles that could affect flatness
(particles that come between the stage and the mounting surface) . It is also
recommended that the base of the stage be cleaned to remove contamination.
Cleaning with alcohol or acetone is suggested, however avoid submersion or
contamination of the internal components.

When mounting the payload to the slide assembly, use the same precautions
mentioned for the stage. Refer to the stage outline drawing for hole locations and
specifications.
