2 Safety

These instructions, especially the safety instructions and the rules and regulations valid for the operating site, must be observed by all persons working with the gearhead.
In addition to the safety specifications mentioned in this operating manual, the general and also the local regulations on the prevention of accidents and on environmental protection should be observed.

2.1 EC directive for devices and protective systems in areas with explosion hazards

Within terms of the EC machinery directive 94/9 EC, the gearhead is considered a device that is mounted together with other devices in a machine. A declaration of conformity for this gearhead can be found in the appendix (see Chapter 9.7 "Declaration of Conformity").
Operation is prohibited within the area of validity of the EC directive until it has been determined that the machine in which this product is installed corresponds to the regulations within this directive.

2.2 Dangers

The gearhead has been constructed according to current technological standards and accepted safety regulations.
To avoid danger to the operator or damage to the machine, the gearhead may be put to use only for its intended usage (see chapter 2.4 "Intended use") and in a technically flawless and safe state.
Be informed of the general safety instructions before beginning work. (see Chapter 2.7
"General safety instructions").

2.3 Personnel

Only persons who have read and understood these instructions may carry out work on the gearhead.

2.4 Intended use

The gearhead serves to convert torques and speeds. It is designed for industrial applications.
The gear reducer can be used in areas with explosion hazard group II, zones 1 and 2, and zones 22 and 21, thus in the device categories 2 and 3. The gearhead can be operated in a gas atmosphere in temperature class T3. In dust atmosphere, a maximum surface temperature of 150°C is possible.
Observe the instructions on the type plate and the appendix on the written
certificate of conformity.
The gearhead is manufactured and declared applying EN 13463 standards and the 94/9/EC directive for use in areas with explosion hazard.
It is imperative that you observe the restrictions of speeds and torques (see
Chapter 9.5 "Technical specifications").
Please consult our Customer Service Department [technical customer service] if
you have any questions or need explanations.
Revision: 02a 2022-D034859 en-5
Page 8
Safety TK+ ATEX
The gearhead is specified for installment on motors that:
- correspond to the design B5 (for any divergences, please consult our Customer Service Department [technical customer service])
- show a radial and axial runout tolerance of at least “N” according to DIN 42955
- have a smooth shaft
- feature at least the same temperature class as the gearhead.
We recommend temperature class T3 and higher, because the gearhead may
not be permitted to heat up to more than 90 °C in normal conditions. The gearhead can be heated additionally through heat connection to the motor, and thus reach a higher housing temperature than 90 °C. The performance of our gearhead in explosion-risk areas would therefore no longer be guaranteed.

2.5 Reasonably predictable misuse

Any use transgressing the maximum permitted speeds, torques and temperature (especially ignoring the regulations on explosion protection) is not compliant with the regulations, and thus prohibited.

2.6 Guarantee and liability

Guarantee and liability claims are excluded for personal injury and material damage in case of
- Ignoring the information on transport and storage
- Improper use (misuse)
- Improper or neglected maintenance and repair
- Improper assembly / disassembly or improper operation
- Operation of the gearhead when safety devices and equipment are defective
- Operation of the gearhead without lubricant
- Operation of a heavily soiled gearhead
- Operating the gearhead despite leakage or unusual running noises
- Operating the gearhead in an atmosphere whose ignition temperature lies under the temperature class specified on the type plate.
- Modifications or reconstructions that have been executed without written approval
of WITTENSTEIN alpha GmbH

2.7 General safety instructions

Operating the gearhead in areas for which it is not approved can lead to explosions that can cause serious injuries and even death.
Make sure that the gearhead is only used in those areas for which it is
permitted according to the identification plate (see Chapter 3.1 "Type plate").
Assembly and maintenance in areas with explosion hazards can lead to explosions that can cause serious injuries and even death.
Be certain that there is no explosive atmosphere during assembly and
maintenance.

Look for external emission of lubricant from the drive.
When opening up the Ermeto coupling, dust could collect on the adapter plate and catch fire during later operation.
Make sure that no explosive dust-air mixture is present and no dust can
get into adapter plate before opening the Ermeto coupling or dismantling the motor.
Open up the Ermeto screw connection in the adapter plate and check for any lubricant
emission inside the adapter plate.
If you detect a leak, remove the lubricant and check the inside of the adapter plate once more
after a brief operation. Lubricant discharge should stop after a short time.
In case lubricant still is emitted, shut down the gearhead and consult our Customer Service.

7.1.4 Replacing the gearhead

Replace the gearhead:
- When 90 % of the calculated life of the gear output bearing has been reached (see "Cymex®" design or total catalogue: Chapter "Information" or "Detailed construction").
- At the latest after a total of 20,000 operating hours.
Alternatively, the gearhead can be checked by WITTENSTEIN alpha GmbH and if
necessary, released for further operation.

Please consult our Customer Service Department concerning this. You will receive the necessary
documents, spare parts, information and upon request training by our Customer Service.

7.4 Notes on the lubricant used All gearheads are filled by the manufacturer with synthetic gear oil

(polyglycols) of viscosity class ISO VG100, ISO VG220. The lubricant type and quantity can be found in the chapter 9.6
"Lubricant quantity".
The lubricant level lies within its minimal and maximum values in any approved mounting position with the correct lubricant quantity. The maximum usual pressure that may prevail in the gearhead during operation lies at 0.5 bar.
You can receive further information on the lubricants directly from the manufacturer:
Castrol Industrie GmbH, Mönchengladbach Tel.: + 49 (0) 21 61 / 9 09 - 30

7.5 Disposal

Consult our Customer Service Department for supplementary information on exchanging the adapter plate, on disassembly, and on disposal of the gearhead.
Dispose of the gearhead at the recycling sites intended for this purpose.
Observe the locally valid regulations for disposals.
