These operating instructions are included with the geared motor when delivered. Keep the
operating instructions close to the geared motor. Please read the operating instructions prior
to handling the geared motor and observe the information they contain. This is how you
secure safe and disturbance-free function.

These operating instructions are valid for the functionally safe encoders that are mounted
onto SIMOGEAR geared motors. The functionally safe encoder is in compliance with the
relevant standards listed in the Declaration of Conformity for safety-relevant applications.
The functionally safe encoder is also mentioned in the operating instructions as encoder.

The operating instructions BA 2730 supplement the following operating instructions:

● BA 2030 SIMOGEAR gearboxes

The operating instructions apply to the standard version of SIMOGEAR gearboxes

● BA 2330 Motors LA/LE/LES for mounting on SIMOGEAR gearboxes

The operating instructions apply to the standard version of the motors for mounting on the
SIMOGEAR gearbox series

● Sendix SIL Encoders for Functional Safety - operating instructions from the Kübler
company, http://www.kuebler.com.

The operating instructions especially address topics related to the encoder:

– General information

– Encoder function

– Functional safety

– Data transfer

– Electrical installation

– Commissioning

– Technical specifications
