If the liquid enters the motor, the motor may be damaged.
During motor installation or operation, make sure that no liquid (water, oil, etc.) can penetrate into the motor. Besides,
when installing the motor horizontally, make sure that the cable outlet faces downward to protect the motor from ingress of
oil or water.
Risk of damage to bearing and bearing grease
Liquid collecting in the flange can have a negative impact on the bearing and bearing grease.
Make sure that the flange is free of liquid, both in the vertical and horizontal mounting positions.
Do not exert any shock at the shaft end; otherwise, the encoder may be damaged.
Note
For detailed information about the motor moun
