Clean production areas are critically important for consumer products manufacturers. The risk
of contaminated food products, cosmetics or drugs reaching the market is unacceptable.
To protect public health and safety, regulations often require a completely germ-free
environment.
Until recently, the cleaning processes required and other coatings on these components were

New drive engineering solutions from SEW-EURODRIVE not only meet the operating requirements
in the standard range but can also be used in the hygienic range where resistance to aggressive
cleansing agents and disinfectants is required.
Motors of the DAS series Additional protection measures: ASEPTICplus drive package
– Motors with IP66 level protection – Motors with IP69K level protection (brake motors IP65)
(brake motors IP65) – OS4 surface protection coating
– Motor corrosion protection: KS internal coating – Contour recesses with sprayed-on rubber
– Choice of OS2-4 surface protection coating – Double oil seals (if technically feasible) at output made of FKM
– Thermal classification F and TH – Stainless steel breather valve
in thermal classification F – Cable entry with screw plugs made of stainless steel
– IS plug connector – Gear unit output shaft made of stainless steel as solid shaft, hollow
shaft with key or TorqLOC® for gear unit types: R17-97, F37-97,
K37-97, S37-97 and W30

The motors of the DAS series are not equipped with fans, which prevents
distribution of germs or other contaminants by air circulation. They are
available in three motor sizes DAS80, DAS90 and DAS100 that can be
mounted directly to helical, parallel shaft helical, helical-bevel, helical-worm
or SPIROPLAN® gear units. The smooth surface of the DAS motors makes
for easy cleaning. This design prevents the accumulation of dirt and almost
completely prevents the formation of germs or bacteria.
Technical data
In addition to the standard surface protection, OS1 to OS4 is an option for motors and gear units.
OS surface protection
Surface Suitable for Ambient conditions/
protection sample applications

1x Dip primer Sample applications
1x Single-component – Machines and systems in the automobile industry
top coat – Conveyor systems in material handling areas
– Conveyor belts at airports
DAS series aseptic Suitable for dry or humid hygienic areas with average atmospheric
motors contamination. Also suitable for particularly dusty environments.
OS2-OS4 as option Sample applications
– Applications in clean rooms
– Machines in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry
– Systems for processing cereal and flour (without Ex protection)
– Conveyor belts in cement plants
DAS series aseptic Suitable for hygienic areas in the food and beverage industry with
motors with permanent humidity and regular acidic and wet cleaning with
ASEPTICplus drive chemical cleaning agents. Cleaning with compressive stress up
package to 80 bar.
OS4 Sample applications
– Hygienic and aseptic conveyors in the beverage industry
– Systems in the meat and dairy industries
– “Splash zones” in the food industry
Sample applications listed are general recommendations only. Each environment must be evaluated independently.
The ASEPTICplus drive package for the DAS gearmotor series offers a high
degree of protection against corrosion as well as aggressive cleansing agents
and disinfectants. In addition to the high-quality material used for bolts, oil
seals and output shafts, the drives are completely protected by the OS4
surface protection coating.
