1. Introduction
1.1. DRVRMOTL
Motorized linear and manual rotary drives are designed to operate sample transporters and
optionally attached sample locking mechanisms such as a pincer grip. The DRVRMOTL linear drive is
compatible with RM40, RMD40, RMDG40 and GMD40. For these sample transporters, a variety of
Ferrovac sample receivers, carriers and pincers are available. The motorized linear drive still allows
for manual rotation of the shaft for sensitive application of the rotation of your sample holder or
when opening/closing the pincer. Rotation can be locked using a thumbscrew.
1.2. DRVRMOTLR
Motorized linear and rotary drives are designed to operate sample transporter and optionally
attached sample locking mechanisms such as a pincer grip. The DRVRMOTLR linear and rotary drive
is compatible with RM40, RMD40, RMDG40 and GMD40. For these sample transporters, a variety of
Ferrovac sample receivers, carriers and pincers are available. Single rotation and linear movement is
completely motorized. Thus opening/closing of pincers or rotation of you sample carrier is easily
done from your workstation.
1.3. DRVRMOTLRR
Motorized linear and rotary drives are designed to operate sample transporters and to optionally
attached sample locking mechanisms such as a pincer grip. The DRVRMOTLRR linear and double
rotary drive is only compatible with RMDG40 sample transporters (as only this model has two
rotatable axis). For this sample transporter a variety of Ferrovac sample receivers, carriers and
pincers are available. Double rotational axis and linear movement is completely motorized. Thus
opening/closing and rotation of pincers or rotation of your sample carrier is easily done from your
workstation.
2. Unpacking and Inspection
Motorized sample transporters are shipped clean and ready to use in UHV. Prepare a sufficiently
clean workspace and wear surgical gloves when unpacking and inspecting the device. Check for any
visible damage of the package, manipulator and accessories. Compare the contents of the package
with the delivery note. Any damage or missing items must be reported to Ferrovac within 48 hours
after delivery.

Always use powder-free examination gloves during unpacking to avoid contamination.
Please ensure enough working space for unpacking and inspection.
Please clean the working table/surface and cover it with Aluminium foil or household foil.
Never hit the knife edge nor the bellows.
Never expose the Sample Transporter to physical shocks (brittle magnets!!!).
Never bend the tube nor the shaft.
3. Overview
The main purpose of RM40, RMD40, RMDG40 and GMD40 sample transporters with motorization is
to transfer samples over longer distances.

The same nomenclature applies to the single rotary motorized DRVRMOTLR.
3.2. Handling & Adjusting Of the Limit Switches
3.2.1. Front Limit Switch
All motorizations for Ferrovac sample transporters have an adjustable limit switch, with which you
can define your max. extended length of the sample transporter. Undo the small screw on the side of
the limit switch housing to adjust it’s position.
The front limit switch of all sample transporter
motorizations (DRVRMOTL, DRVRMOTLR,
DRVRMOTLRR) is connected to pins 9 and 18 on
the 26P D-Sub connector.
The switch is a reed switch, which is operated by an applied magnetic field. This switch is normally
closed wired and opened by the switch action (position is reached).

3.2.2. Rear Limit Switch
You find the rear limit switch at the rear end of the motorization (directly under the spindle unit).
The position of it is not adjustable.
The front limit switch of all sample transporter motorizations
(DRVRMOTL, DRVRMOTLR, DRVRMOTLRR) is connected to pins 8
and 17 on the 26P D-Sub connector.
3.2.3. Rotation Limit Switches
Each rotational unit has two limit switches (start- & end-position). The start- and the angle of the
end-position can easily be adjusted by 3 grub screws (3 screws/position).
Fig. 7; Rot. Limit Switch DRVRMOTLR
For the DRVRMOTL & DRVRMOTLR motorizations, the switches can also be connected as "normal
open". However, it is highly recommended to connect as "normal closed"!
CAUTION: Risk of squashing/crushing!
Never touch the motorized sample transporter during movement!
