Marathon 2250 and Marathon 1680 Product Manual

1.8.6.2Nonoperating vibration

The following table lists the maximum nonoperating vibration that the drive may experience without incurring physical damage or degradation in performance.

5–22 Hz

0.2-inch displacement (peak-to-peak)

22–400 Hz

4 Gs acceleration (0 to peak)

400–22 Hz

4 Gs acceleration (0 to peak)

22–5 Hz

0.2-inch displacement (peak-to-peak)

1.9 Drive acoustics

Drive acoustics are measured as sound power, using techniques that are generally consistent with ISO document 7779. Measurements are taken under essentially free-field conditions over a reflecting plane, using a total of nine microphones that measure in the 250–4,000 Hz band. This method- ology determines broad-band and narrow-band noise, and discrete fre- quency components. For all tests, the drive is oriented with the cover facing upward.
