13.4 Cable installation

Mount the cable exit in the "down" or lower hemisphere region to promote drainage after
washdown.
Create a drip loop so that any liquids or chemicals that spray or splash on to the cable will
travel down to the loop and drip off instead of running down the cable directly on to the motor
strain relief bushing.
CAUTION
The cable bushing could come loose or allow for contamination to get inside
the motor, if no strain relief on the cable is used. This could lead to unexpected
behavior of the motor and electrocution hazard due to failure of electrical
terminations.

13.4.1 Standard cabling

Standard cable is usable in all applications except food grade applications.
Observe the minimum bending radius for the cable (➜ # 49).
Compatibility of the cable to cleaning solutions used in the application should be evaluated
before subjecting the cable to long-term exposure to chemicals. Using the motor in food-
grade applications requires the tube option for the cable.

13.4.2 Tube cabling

Silicone tubing protects the cable and electrical interfaces on these motors from exposure to
cleaning solutions and avoids emissions from the motor cable.
Observe the minimum bending radius for the cable in tube (➜ # 49).
Exposure of the silicone tubing to strong mineral acids should be avoided. Compatibility of
the silicone tubing with cleaning solutions used in the application should be evaluated before
subjecting the silicone tubing to long-term exposure to chemicals. Avoid exposure of the
silicone tubing with strong mechanical stress. After installation and at regular intervals check
the tube for cracks or cuts.
