Coupling / motor adapter / motor
A motor with or without a drive can be connected to the steering. Correct configuration of the
drive will prevent dangers arising from this linear unit.
The motor is adapted via a motor adapter consisting of motor plate/s and coupling housing, plus
a coupling. This matched combination ensures that the components are aligned axially. The
motor / linear shaft combination determines the motor adapter version. The installation follows a
logical sequence. The coupling is fastened to the drive and plugged through the installed motor
adapter on to the pins of the linear unit. The coupling lug is pulled on to the pins of the linear unit
through the installation opening in the coupling housing. One or two motor plates are used,
depending on the version.
Centring rings must be used in some versions. This interface is stipulated for motor types from RK
Rose+Krieger GmbH's RK product range. A selection matrix in the Linear Technology catalogue
shows the right adaptation.
