4DRUM MOTOR INSTALLATION MANUAL 80LP-138LP
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Product description
The Drum Motor is a completely enclosed electrical
drive roller, with the gear box, electric motor
and bearings located inside the drive drum. This
construction results in a Drum Motor with a very
compact design, and all the internal components
are protected against external factors. The Drum
Motor can be used in many different environments
including exposure to ne dust as well as to water
jets and water spray and is resistant to most
aggressive elements and environmental conditions.
The Drum Motor transfers the required power to
a conveyor belt, converting the drum torque into
traction force. The available internal protection
rating of IP66 or IP69 and the optional stainless-
steel design means that the drum motor is also
suitable for use in the food processing sector. An
idler pulley is a drum without an electric motor,
used to tighten the belt and create traction on the
drive drum.
Integrated thermal protection: All drum motors
are supplied with a built-in thermal protector.
Protection consists of heat-sensitive, bi-metallic
switches built into each motor phase winding.
The switches are designed to open if the motor
temperature rises to an excessively high level.
These switches must be connected to a control
circuit (in series with a magnetic coil/relay device
and contactor) that is closed by default. A motor
control circuit will cut motor power if the thermal
switch opens. Thermal switches will automatically
close as the motor cools. Cooling times vary with
pulley model, power, and size.
