For all
gearmotors
Observe the following notes for all gearmotors and MOVIMOT
®
gearmotors from SEW-
EURODRIVE.
Position terminal
box and cable
entry
The position of the motor terminal box has so far been specified indicated with 0°, 90°,
180° or 270° as viewed onto the fan guard = B-end ( Figure 86). A change in the
product standard EN 60034 specifies that the following designations will have to be
used for terminal box positions for foot-mounted motors in the future:
As viewed onto the output shaft = A-end
Designation as R (right), B (bottom), L (left) and T (top)
This new designation applies to foot-mounted motors without a gear unit in mounting
position B3 (= M1). The previous designation is retained for gearmotors. Figure 86
shows both designations. Where the mounting position of the motor changes, R, B, L
and T are rotated accordingly. In motor mounting position B8 (= M3), T is at the bottom.
The position of the cable entry can be selected as well. The positions are "X" (= standard
position), "1", "2" or "3" ( Figure 86).
Unless indicated otherwise, you will receive the terminal box type 0° (R) with cable entry
"X". We recommend selecting cable entry "2" with mounting position M3.

When the terminal box is in the 90° (B) position, check to see if the gearmotor has
to be supported.
Only cable entries "X" and "2" are possible for DT56 and DR63 motors. Exception:
Cable entry "3" is also possible for DR63 with IS plug connector.
The following cable entries are possible in the DT71..BMG motor with gear unit
flange diameters 160 mm and 200 mm:
Terminal box position 0° (R) 90° (B) 180° (L) 270° (T)
