ATTENTION!
The motor must always be positioned so the drain hole is at the lowest position;
Motors supplied with rubber drain plugs leave the factory in the closed position and
must be opened periodically to allow the exit of condensed water. For environments
with high water condensation levels and motor with degree of protection IP55, the
drain plugs can be mounted in open position;
For motors with degree of protection IP56, IP65 or IP66, the drain plugs must remain
at closed position, being opened only during the motor maintenance procedures.
Slinger: WECM / Emerald product in vertical shaft up mounting should be fitted with water slinger
ring to prevent water ingress inside the motor. Consult WEG about this optional.
ATTENTION!
Motors installed outdoors or in the vertical position require the use of additional shelter
to protect them from water.
