3 Precautions for use
This chapter covers restrictions and requirements the user should consider when using the product.
General
zBe sure to use our cable to connect the actuator and the driver.
In the following cases, purchase our cable separately. Check on the Oriental Motor Website for the model name.
•If a flexible cable is to be used.
•If a cable of 3 m (9.8 ft.) or longer is to be used.
•If a motor and driver package without a cable was purchased.
•If an actuator only was purchased.
zWhen conducting the insulation resistance measurement or the dielectric strength test, be sure to
separate the connection between the actuator and the driver.
Conducting the insulation resistance measurement or dielectric strength test with the actuator and driver connected
may result in damage to the product.
zDo not make an impact on the actuator.
Do not drop the actuator. Also, do not hit the motor or gear-reduction mechanism on something hard. Doing so may
cause the positioning accuracy decrease, the motor section damage or the product service life reduction.
zMake sure not to hit or apply a strong impact on the encoder (ABZO sensor).
•Making a strong impact on an encoder (ABZO sensor) may cause the motor malfunction or damage to the encoder
(ABZO sensor).
•When transporting the actuator or installing a load, handle the actuator carefully not to make a strong impact on
the moving part.
•The warning label shown in the gure is indicated on the motor part of the
actuators equipped with the AZ Series.
Warning label
zDo not move the encoder (ABZO sensor) toward a strong magnetic eld.
A magnetic sensor is built into the encoder (ABZO sensor). If the motor is installed close to equipment which
generates a strong magnetic eld, the encoder (ABZO sensor) may break or malfunction. Especially, the DGM60 is
easily aected by a magnetic eld, so make sure the environment at transportation and storage as well as the
installation location in use. Keep the magnetic ux density on the surface of the encoder (ABZO sensor) so as not to
exceed the values in the table.
Model Magnetic ux density
When transporting and storing When operating
DGM60 5 mT 2 mT *
DGM85, DGM130, DGM200
DGB85, DGB130 10 mT 10 mT
* When the magnetic ux density is exceeding 1 mT and 2 mT or less, use in an environment where the operating
ambient temperature is exceeding 20 °C (68 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F) or less.
zMeshing noise of mechanical sensor
A gear type mechanical sensor is built into the encoder (ABZO sensor). Although the meshing noise of gears may
generate, it is not malfunction.

Precautions for use
13
Temperature
zUse the actuator equipped with the AZ Series in a conditions where the motor surface temperature
does not exceed 80 °C (176 °F).
The motor surface temperature may exceed 80 °C (176 °F) under certain conditions (ambient temperature, operating
speed, duty cycle, etc.). In order to protect the encoder (ABZO sensor), use the motor in a conditions where the motor
surface temperature does not exceed 80 °C (176 °F). If the encoder (ABZO sensor) temperature reaches the upper
limit, the motor overheat protection alarm will generate.
zUse the actuator equipped with the AR Series or RKII Series in a conditions where the motor surface
temperature does not exceed 100 °C (212 °F).
The motor does not have a function to protect from overheating. The motor surface temperature may exceed 100 °C
(212 °F) under certain conditions (ambient temperature, operating speed, duty cycle, etc.). To prevent the motor
bearings (ball bearings) from reaching its usable life quickly, use the motor in a conditions where the motor surface
temperature does not exceed 100 °C (212 °F).
Operation
zDo not apply a moment load or axial load in excess of the specied permissible limit.
Operating the actuator under an excessive moment load or axial load may damage the bearings. Be sure to operate
the actuator below the specied permissible limits of the moment load and axial load.
zWhen the motor is the double shaft
With these models, do not apply load torque, radial load or axial load to the back shaft of the motor.
zHollow hole section
If the pipe or cable installed in the hollow hole section is rotated together with the output table, take measures not to
rub or disconnect in contact with the inner wall of the hollow hole section.
zHolding torque at standstill
When the actuator stops, the holding torque of the output table will be reduced by the current cutback function of
the driver. When selecting a actuator, check the holding torque at motor standstill in the specications on the catalog.
zDo not use the electromagnetic brake to reduce speed or as a safety brake.
•The electromagnetic brake is a power-o activated type. This means that although it helps maintain the position of
the load in the event of power outage, etc., this brake cannot securely hold the load in place. Accordingly, do not
use the electromagnetic brake as a safety brake.
•Do not use the electromagnetic brake as a means to decelerate and stop the actuator. The brake hub of the
electromagnetic brake will wear signicantly and the braking force will drop if used to stop the motor.
•To use the electromagnetic brake to hold the load in place, do so after the actuator has stopped.
zDo not perform an operation to cause overshooting or undershooting.
Operating the actuator under the condition that overshooting or
undershooting occurs may cause damage to the gear-reduction
mechanism. Review the operating condition or adjust the speed lter.
Since the product equipped with the RKII Series pulse input type does not
have the function of the speed lter, adjust to revise the operating
condition.

Notes when the connection cable is used
Note the following points when our cable is used.
zWhen inserting the connector
Hold the connector main body, and insert it in straight securely.
Inserting the connector in an inclined state may result in
damage to terminals or a connection failure.
zWhen pulling out the connector
Pull out the connector in straight while releasing the lock part
of the connector. Pulling out the connector with holding the
cable (lead wires) may result in damage to the connector.
zBending radius of cable
Use the cable in a state where the bending radius of the cable is
more than six times of the cable diameter.
Do not bend the lead wires part or x it with a clamp.
Doing so may cause damage to the connector.
More than 6 times of
cable diameter
Do not bend the lead wires part
zHow to x the cable
Fix the cable near the connectors at two places as shown in the gure or x it with a wide clamp to take measures to
prevent stress from being applied to the connectors.
In the case of a exible cable,
this area is a movable range.

•On rare occasions, a small amount of grease may ooze out from the actuator. If there is concern
over possible environmental damage resulting from the leakage of grease, check for grease stains
during regular inspections. Alternatively, install an oil pan or other device to prevent leakage from
causing further damage. Oil leakage may lead to problems in the user’s equipment or products.
•Do not loosen or remove the screws of the actuator. Doing so may cause the positioning accuracy
to drop or damage to the actuator.
•Be sure the positioning pins are secured to the mounting plate. Driving the pins into the actuator
may damage the actuator due to impact.
•Do not drop the actuator. Also, do not hit the motor or gear-reduction mechanism on something
hard. Doing so may cause the positioning accuracy decrease, the motor section damage or the
product service life reduction.
4-3 Release the electromagnetic brake type
When moving the table of the electromagnetic brake type manually, connect the 24 VDC power supply for
electromagnetic brake to release the electromagnetic brake.

zReleasing procedure
1. Connect the "electromagnetic brake cable" and “cable for electromagnetic brake.”
2. Connect the lead wires of the“cable for electromagnetic brake”to the 24 VDC power supply.
Connect the white lead wire to the +24 VDC terminal, and the black lead wire to the GND terminal.
3. Turn on the 24 VDC power supply.
The electromagnetic brake will be released and the output table will be able to move by hand.

The lead wires of the“cable for electromagnetic brake”have polarities, so connect them in the correct
polarities. If the lead wires are connected with their polarities reversed, the electromagnetic brake
will not operate properly.
4-4 Installation method of DGM60 type
Perform cutout machining or through-hole machining on a mounting plate when installing the actuator.
Position the actuator using two positioning pin holes, and secure the mounting holes with screws (two pieces).
Provide screw hole machining in the mounting plate since the mounting holes are through holes.
The positioning pin holes can be used as mounting holes when they are not used. As with the above case, provide
screw hole machining in the mounting plate.
Values of the tightening torque are recommended. Tighten the screws with a suitable torque according to the design
conditions of the mounting plate.
