2.1 Overview
This chapter provides important safety information needed
for the proper operation of the unit.
2.2 Intended use
The EIB 5000 series products enable monitoring of
the temperature of direct drive motors. The products
can evaluate up to three temperature sensors (the
EIB 5181 permits evaluation of a fourth temperature
sensor for the cascading of EIBs. No protective
separation). The products compensate for the
transmission timing behavior of the temperature
measurement
The EIB 5000 series products protect the
direct drive motor from overheating
This requires that the respective control unit
connected to the product evaluate the temperature or
optionally available switching outputs for warnings and
errors
The devices of the EIB 5000 series serve as
accessories for encoders from HEIDENHAIN and must
be used only in commercial applications and in an
industrial environment
