Set-Up ETH- Electromechanical Cylinders14 192-550002N2 ETH Mounting instructions March 2011The linear module is furnished completely mounted and mechanically ready-to-operate.If no Parker drive is provided, attach your motor-gearbox combination according to theinstructions of the respective supplier.The technical data must be respected.See from page 6 in the catalog section (following the mounting instructions).2.1 MountingCaution!Please use only the parts offered in the Parker ETH catalog for the followingmounting components:◆ Rear Eye Mounting (order code E)◆ Rear Clevis (order code C) with bearing pedestalStandard parts in accordance with the ISO flange standard cannot be used forthese accessories, as they are not sufficiently stable.Please Note:◆ The cylinder housing must be mounted without tension or contorsion.◆ The cylinder housing must be precisely aligned to the load direction of motion.◆ Occurring lateral forces on the cylinder must be taken into consideration.2.1.1. Mounting with mounting threads on the cylinderThe easiest and most economic method of mounting is using the available mountingthreads on the cylinder body. Make sure that the mounting surface is level and that thecylinder is mounted without tension and contortion. This method of mounting is onlypossible, if the lower side of the mounting surface is accessible.Dimensions: see in the catalog section (following the mounting instructions) on page 16.2.1.2. Mounting with mounting accessoriesCylinder mounting with mounting plates or foot mounting bracketsIf the underside of the mounting surface is not accessible, mounting plates or foot mountingbrackets are available as accessories.Mounting methods: see from page 19 in the catalog section (following the mountinginstructions).Dimensions: see in the catalog section (following the mounting instructions) on page 16.The rear mounting plate cannot be fixed with inline motor configuration.If you fix the cylinder only at the rear end (e.g. also with a rear clevis) please respect theeffective direction of the known forces. Critical are above all lateral forces in horizontal orvertical direction.Permissible side load: See from page 13 in the catalog section (following the mountinginstructions).In this chapter you can read about:Mounting ......................................................................................................................... 14Electric installation ........................................................................................................... 17Motor and feedback mounting ......................................................................................... 19Exchanging the toothed belt ............................................................................................ 24Belt / belt tensions ........................................................................................................... 242.
