Drive 6000 Operating Manual

5.4 Preparatory tasks

The anti-corrosive agent (Valvoline Tectyl 846/K19) used for transportation and storage on the shaft-ends or
hollow shafts and on the central seats must be removed before start up. The corrosion protection can be remo-
ved with an alkaline cleaner. Never use mechanical aids (abrasives etc.). The alkaline solvent must not come into
contact with gaskets.
When using lubricants, solvents and corrosion protection products, the protection guidelines for people and the
environment as set out in the corresponding DIN 52 900 safety data sheets must be heeded.
Make sure that when fitting the gearbox there is no explosive atmosphere, oils, acids, gases, vapours or radiation.
Ex
Check whether the ambient temperature is within the range of application in accordance with Section 5.7
Ensure that there is enough ventilation to the gear and there is no external heat source (e. g. from couplings).
The cooling air must not exceed a temperature of 40°C.
Check that the configuration matches the configuration specified on the gear's model plate.
Please note: The design may only be changed after prior consultation with SCG, otherwise the ATEX approval will
lapse.
Please check that all drive parts to be installed are ATEX approved.
With gears with adapters, make sure that the data given on the gear's model plate is not exceeded
With mains operated motors:
Check that the data given on the gear and motor model plates matches the environmental conditions of the
installation location.

5.5. Check list for ATEX approved gears before commissioning

You must check whether the following data on the gear model plate agrees with the permis-
sible explosive area on site:
Ex
- Equipment group
- Ex category
- Ex zone
- Temperature class
- Maximum surface temperature

5.6 Tests before commissioning in Ex area

- Does the data on the gear box's rating plate correspond to the permissible explosive area on site?
- Is the drive undamaged? (Check for any transport or storage damage).
Ex
- Is there an explosive atomosphere (oils, acids, gases, vapours, radiation, etc.)?
- Does the design correspond to the information on the model plate? Attention: If the design has not
been changed by SCG, the ATEX approval will lapse.
- Is an unrestricted supply of cooling air guaranteed? Is any hot exhaust air being drawn in from other equiment?
The cooling air must not exceed a temperature of 40 °C.
- Are all drive parts ATEX-approved?
If possible, the gear box is to be started without load. If it runs quietly and without any odd noises, the gearbox is
attached to the driven machine.
Measure the surface temperature after about 3 hours. Maximum permissible difference from ambient tempera-
ture: 55 K. At a value of >55 K stop the drive immediately and contact
SHI.
