the conductors of the main circuit and protective conductive system.
Value ≥1 MΩ: no measures necessary.
Value <1 MΩ: Dry winding.
Reduction of oscillations and noises
Noise emissions and vibrations can be reduced by the following measures.
▪Do not set up the F-CEVF in set-up areas that conduct or radiate sound.
▪Equip installation surfaces with intermediate layers of noise damping material.
Mounting conditions
For safe operation, comply with the following installation conditions
▪Always place the F-CEVF on a level mounting surface or base frame. The di-
mensions and load bearing capacity must be designed for F-CEVF.
▪When installing outdoors, take protective measures against the effects of
weather.
▪When installing in enclosed spaces, ensure that there is sufficient ventilation.
For conveyed media other than air, leaks from the F-CEVF must be taken into
account (e.g. forced ventilation, gas monitoring).
▪No exhaust air from other machines in the suction area of the motor fan.
▪External oscillations, abrupt loads and accelerations are not permitted.
▪External mechanical loads are not permitted on the F-CEVF and its attach-
ments (e.g. piping without a support, climbing the F-CEVF and its attach-
ments).
▪If there is a risk of condensation forming in the interior of the F-CEVF, take
protective measures (e.g. heating, moisture separators).
▪When loading the conveyed goods statically, ground the connection cables.
Set up
Only set up the F-CEVF in an upright position on its feet (item 0062, [13]) or
castors (item 0182, [13]).
NOTICE

Connecting pipelines and hoses
WARNING
Risk of injury due to prohibited system-side loads!
Suddenly ejected conveyed media such as impurities and solid particles or
pressure surges can lead to serious injuries.
1. Dimension pipes and hoses, securing elements, fittings and containers suffi-
ciently and align them to the maximum pressures.
2. Connect the F-CEVF and the system de-energised and flexibly (e.g. using
hoses or compensators).
3. Do not fit pipes, hoses, securing elements, fittings and containers to the F-
CEVF and secure from damage.
4. Protect the F-CEVF from non-permitted pressure levels from the plant (e.g.
pressure limiting valve, pressure switch).
5. After switching off, ensure that no conveyed media can flow through the F-
CEVF (external drive through conveyed media), install a check valve if neces-
sary.
WARNING
Risk of injury due to uncased gas inlet!
Severe injuries to body parts, drawing in of hair.
!Operating without piping (free suction) is solely permitted under the following
conditions:
Take protection measures on the gas inlet to prevent body parts and hair from
being sucked in.
NOTICE
Pressure loss due to reduced cross section of the pipes and hoses!
As possible, make the cross section of the pipes and hoses the same length
or longer than the connections of the F-CEVF.
!On delivery, all connection openings are closed with a transport protection.
This prevents foreign objects from entering.
1. Remove the transport protection from the connection openings.

General installation regulations
NOTICE
Destruction of the drive!
Incorrect operation or incorrect control can destroy the drive.
1. The F-CEVF is equipped with an asynchronous motor.
2. Operating on a grid with a non-earthed start point is not permitted.
The electrical installation must correctly fulfil the requirements of IEC 60204-1,
IEC 60204-11 and IEC 61010-1 in accordance with the ambient and operating
conditions.
The electrical installation must also be implemented according to the applicable
national, local and plant-specific stipulations, as well as the requirements of the
power supply company.
The conditions at the operating site must comply with the information on the Rat-
ing plate [12]. The following conditions are permitted during mains operation:
▪±15% variation in voltage from EN 60034-1 without loss of performance
(range A) for standard motors
▪±5% variation in voltage without loss of performance according to EN 60034-1
(range A) for IE3 motors
▪±10% variation in voltage with a loss of performance according to EN 60034-1
(range A) for IE3 motors
▪±2% deviation in frequency
▪The electrical data are provided on the rating plate (item M, [12])
The electrical installation must:
▪Be correctly attached and protected.
▪Be kept away from hot surfaces.
▪Be electrically isolated to a sufficient degree.
▪Be constructed and fitted in such a way that the following faults do not lead to
damage:
– short circuits
– mechanical impacts
– power supply failures or surges
– electromagnetic fields
– earth connections
The electrical equipment and control must not put the protective devices of the
drive system and the motor protection (e.g. PTC resistor, bimetal switch, frequen-
cy inverter current limit) out of operation.
When the power supply fails or surges, the control must prevent the F-CEVF from
remaining in operation or starting up.
Protective devices and switches must fulfil the failure safety conditions.
Overcurrent protection
The power supply of the motor must be equipped with an overcurrent protection
device (e.g. a motor protection circuit breaker) according to IEC 60204-1, 7.2.
Separator for the electrical energy supply
A separator for the electrical energy supply must be:
▪Provided according to IEC 60204-1, 5.3 and 5.5.
▪Clearly and visibly labelled.
