1.4.13 Washdown and Washdown Food
These motor variants are used in applications that are subject to strict hygiene regulations in
which it is essential that the formation of nucleation and corrosion are avoided and in which
machines must be cleaned cyclically.
The motors are based on the standard types AKM2 - AKM6 with special modifications for use
in the food-processing industry or even in the packaging industry. In addition, it is also pos-
sible to coat the flange in each case – but then it is not possible to assure tolerance class N
for the flange.
In the type code, the coating of the motor housing (type "W" for Washdown, "F" for Wash-
down Food) is defined separately in the version (last two digits) and the flange coating.
