Introduction ETH- Electromechanical Cylinders12 192-550002N2 ETH Mounting instructions March 20111.6 Warranty conditionsUser Conversions and Changes are Not PermittedThe linear actuator must not be changed in its design or in terms of safety without ourapproval. Any change as defined here made by the user excludes any liability on our part.1.7 Conditions of utilizationGeneral introductory notesWith the ETH electro cylinder you bought a product which was manufactured and testedbefore delivery with the utmost care.Please take your time to read the following notes which you ought to follow closely duringsetup and operation.The operation of the electro cylinder is only permitted within the limit values stated in thismanual.Unless, all claims under the warranty will become void and a reduced service life or evendamages must be expected.Please compare the operating data with the stated limit values especially withreference to:◆ Stroke length and setting of the limit switches, those must be set so that there is a sufficientsafety travel at both ends of the travel strokeEven if the limit switches were already mounted at our premises, they must be adaptedaccording to suitable values before operation!◆ Thrust and traction force in the effective direction◆ Lateral force (e.g. as a component of the effective force, but also due to own weight onhorizontal mounting, especially with parallel motor mounting and long travel strokes)◆ Speed◆ Acceleration◆ Environmental conditions (e.g. temperature, contamination)◆ Please do take possible pulses caused by moved masses into consideration for theoperating data. (Even small abrupt loads can cause damage, especially if they occur ratheroften at the same place.)The limit values for the thrust and traction force, lateral force, speed andacceleration are partly influenced by several factors and can change depending on:◆ the size of the electro cylinder◆ Screw lead◆ Direct or parallel drive via toothed belt transmission◆ Mounting method◆ Mounting orientation vertical or horizontal resp. inclined◆ Travel Stroke
