    1. GENERAL

    World Series motors are a modern line of squirrel-cage induction motors whose design, both electrical andmechanical, has been computer-optimized to providelong,reliable and highly efficient service. The vacuum-

    pressure impregnated Thermalastic po!y statorwinding insulation utilizes the most modern insulationconcepts and materials to assure a long, trouble-freewinding life.

    These instructions address the more commonsituations encountered in motor installation, operationand maintenance. "owever, they are not purported tocover every conceivable situation that might arise.Therefore, if additional information is required, it can beobtained by contacting either the nearest Westinghouse#otor $om-pany Sales office or the Westinghouse #otor$ompany headquarters at %-&''-()*-+&.

    or the Westinghouse #otor $ompany warranty tobe and to remain in effect, the motor must be installedand operated in strict accordance with the outlinedrawing, motor nameplates and these instructions and

    the motor must not be altered or modified in anyunauthorized manner.

    2. RECEIVING

    The motor should be carefully inspected for damagewhen received. /f there is any evidence of damage, thecarrier should be notified immediately. The nearestWestinghouse #otor $ompany sales office should also benotified.

    3. HANDLING

    ach motor is provided with lifting lugs, welded to

    the four corners of the motor frame, for lifting theassembled machine. The motor should always be lifted

    by using the lifting lugs located on all four corners of themotor frame.

    NOTE, 3efer to weights specified on outline drawing todetermine proper lifting equipment required forspecific components or assemblies.

    -. STORAGE

    STANDARD AC/AGING

    /f the motor is not to be installed and placed intoservice immediately, certain normal precautions must beta4en after it has been received to provide proper protec-

    tion while the motor is being stored. The motor shouldbestored under cover in a clean, dry location and should be

    protected from rapid temperature changes.

    Since moisture can be very detrimental to electricalcomponents, the motor temperature should be maintainedabout 56$ 7-+68 above the dew point temperature by

    providing either e!ternal or internal heat. /f the motor isequipped with space heaters, they should be energized atthe voltage shown by the space heater nameplate attachedto the motor. /ncandescent light bulbs can be placedwithin the motor to provide heat. "owever, if used, theymust not be allowed to come in contact with any parts of

    the motor because of the concentrated hot spot that couldresult.

    This motor has been provided with a shaft shippingbrace or shipping bolt 7normally painted yellow8 toprevent shaft movement during transit, it must beremovedto allow shaft rotation 7refer to Section +8. /t is veryimportant that this brace be reinstalled e!actly as it wasoriginally, before the motor is moved from storage or any

    time when the motor is being transported. This preventsa!ial rotor movement that might damage the bearings.

    #otors equipped with sleeve bearings are shippedfrom the factory with the bearing oil reservoirs drained./n storage, the oil reservoirs should be properly filled tothe center of the oil level gauge with a good grade of rustinhibiting oil 7refer to the outline drawing for oilviscosity and any special requirements8. To 4eep the

    bearing 9ournals well oiled and to prevent rusting, themotor shaft should be rotated several revolutions every

    two 7(8 wee4s. While the shaft is rotated, it should bepushed to both e!tremes of the endplay to allow for oilflow over the entire length of the 9ournals.

    #otors with anti-friction bearings should receive aninitial charge of grease upon receipt and then regreasedin intervals as specified on the lubrication and nameplate

    provided on the motor. The grease used must becompatible with the factory grease and be of the gradespecified on the outline drawing. 3efer to Section %' forthe proper quantity of grease. The shaft should berotated several revolutions every two 7(8 wee4s tomaintain proper distribution of the grease within the

    bearings.

    Tilt-pad bearings are a type of sleeve bearing used inspecial design applications. :ue to the nature of this

    bearing, a loose oil ring for delivering lubricant cannotbe provided. or short periods of storage 7less than +months8 rotating the shaft every ( wee4s will adequately

    protect the bearing surfaces. or longer than + months,contact the Westinghouse #otor $ompany for assistancein relubricating.

    LONG TER0 STORAGE AC/AGING

    /f the motor has been pac4aged at the factory 7only ifso specified in the order8 for long-term storage, the

    pac4aging should not be disturbed until the motor is to beinstalled.

    ;nce the pac4aging has been removed the motorshould be carefully inspected for damage. /f any damageis located, the nearest Westinghouse #otor $ompanysales office should be notified.

    . LOCATION

    This motor was designed for operation at theambient temperature and altitude specified on the outlinedrawing. The conditions at the installation site must note!ceed these limits for satisfactory motor operation and

    life.

    The motor location must be well-ventilated, allowingfree circulation of air around the motor. /f the motor hasan open ventilation system, the air discharge must not beso obstructed as to cause recirculation of the hotdischarge air bac4 into the air inlets.

    suitable for belt, chain or gear connection unless it wasspecifically designed for such service.

    0lthough the sleeve bearings are equipped withthrust faces, these are intended only to providemomentary a!ial restraint of the rotor movement eitherduring start-up or when operating the motordisconnected from the driven equipment. They must not

    be operated under a constant thrust load unless theywere originally designed for this condition.

    .3.1 D"re! Co$$e!ed

    #otors with either sleeve or anti-friction bearingsare suitable for connection to the driven load through afle!ible coupling. $oupling solidly to the load is notacceptable. With sleeve bearings, the fle!ible couplingshould be of the limited end-float type. This will preventthe possibility of any end thrust from the load beingtransmitted to the motor bearings, which could cause

    bearing damage. The recommended limits of end-floatfor couplings are treated in >#0 #= %-('.&% asfollows?

    ield application of a coupling to the motor shaftshould follow the procedures recommended by thecoupling manufacturer. The shaft 4ey can be stepped anda radius provided to eliminate potential balance problems

    but, under no circumstances may the motor shaft bemodified without the approval of the Westinghouse#otor $ompany. The motor shaft e!tension must not besub-9ected to either e!treme heat or cold during coupling

    installation. /f it is necessary to e!ert force on the shaft,either continuously or intermittently, during couplingapplication, it must be properly restrained a!ially in thecenter of its end-float to prevent bearing damage.

    /n aligning the motor 7and rotor8 a!ially with thedriven equipment, consideration must be given to thefollowing factors?

    /t is desirable, in normal operation, that the motoroperate on its magnetic center, in which case no a!ialforce is being e!erted on the coupling.

    The motor shaft and the driven shaft should be

    0ngular misalignment is the amount by which thecenterlines of the driving and driven shafts are s4ewed.

    /t can be measured using a dial indicator set up as shownon page +. The couplings are rotated together through5+' degrees so that the indicator does not measure runoutof the coupling hub face. The shafts should be forcedagainst either the in or out e!treme of their end floatwhile being rotated.

    Carallel misalignment is the amount by which thecenterlines of the driving and driven shafts are out of

    parallel. /t can be measured using a dial indicator set upas shown below. 0gain, the couplings are rotatedtogether through 5+' degrees so that the indicator doesnot measure runout of the coupling hub outside diameter.

    :uring alignment, the motor is ad9usted vertically byshimming between the mounting surface and the motorfeet. The shims 7furnished only if part of the motororder8 should be as large as the pro9ected area of themotor foot pad and should either partially or completelyencircle the hold-down bolts. Shimming must be donecarefully to prevent any uneven support of the frame feetthat could result in frame distortion due to hold-down

    bolt tension. When properly shimmed, it should not bepossible to insert a '.''( inch thic4 feeler gauge betweenthe top shim and the bottom of any frame foot.

    The hold-down bolt quantity, size and installationconfiguration must be in accordance with that shown bythe outline drawing. /f 9ac4 screws are used in the framefeet during alignment, they must be completelydisengaged so that no motor weight is carried by themwhen the hold-down bolts have been tightened.

    0fter the motor has been properly aligned with thedriven equipment and the hold-down bolts have beeninstalled and tightened, at least two dowel pins should beinstalled in two diagonally opposite motor feet. TheWestinghouse #otor $ompany shall not be responsiblefor changes in alignment and subsequent damages to

    motors that are not field doweled. Cilot holes areprovided in each frame foot to facilitate final fielddrilling and reaming of the required dowel holes. Sincethe dowel pilot hole in the frame foot is set at a )6 anglefrom the vertical, it may first be necessary to spotface themotor mounting surface. This can be accomplished witha flat bottom drill utilizing the pilot hole as a guide.

    .3.2 8e'+ C)a"$ or Gear Co$$e!"o$

    #otors are not suitable for belt, chain or gearconnec-tion to their driven load unless specificallydesigned for such service, because of the side loade!erted upon the shaft and bearings. /f there is anyquestion concerning either suitability or the minimum

    belt sheave, gear or sproc4et diameter to use, the nearestWestinghouse #otor $ompany sales office should becontacted.

    /n general, to minimize shaft bending stress andbearing side load, the sheave, gear or sproc4et should be

    mounted as close to the bearing housing as is possiblewithout any mechanical interference.

    .3.2.1 8e' Dr"&e

    0 motor for a belt drive application should bemounted on a slide rail base. The initial positioning ofthe base should allow for ma!imum read9ustment of themotor away from the driven load to compensate for beltwear and stretch. The centerlines of the motor and of thedriven equipment shafts must be parallel so that thetension on all belts is uniform. 0lso, the sheaves must bealigned so that the belts run true in the grooves.

    The belts should be tightened according to the beltmanufacturerDs instructions. !cessive belt tension 7suchas to overcome belt slippage or noise during start-up8 canover-stress the shaft and2or overload the bearings. Beltspeeds are normally limited to +'' feet per minute forA&EA sections belts and cast iron sheaves. Speeds ine!cess of this may require steel sheaves and should not beused without first consulting the belt manufacturer.

    .3.2.2 C)a"$ Dr"&e

    The chain sproc4ets must be accurately aligned 7in

    the same plane8 to prevent e!cessive side pressure andwear on the drive components. The sag alignment of thechain, when carrying rated load, should be as specified

    by the chain manufacturer.

    .3.2.3 Gear Dr"&e

    The deflections of the motor bearings and shaft are afunction of the motor load and must be considered whenaligning the driving and driven gears. The gears mustmesh accurately to prevent e!cessive gear wear, shaftload, vibration and noise. The final doweling of themotor feet should not be done until after the alignment

    has been verified by a test run.

    The stator windings of motors with open ventilationsystems can become contaminated with dirt and othersubstances brought into the motor by the ventilating air.

    Such contaminants can impair cooling of the winding byclogging the air passages in the winding end-turns andvent ducts through the stator core and by reducing heattransfer from the winding insulation surfaces to thecooling air. $onducting contaminants can change orincrease electrical stresses on the insulation and corrosivecontaminants can chemically attac4 and degrade theinsulation. The end result can be degradation of theinsulation, leading to shortened insulation life andfailure.

    Several satisfactory methods of cleaning stator wind-ings and stator cores are offered below?

    0. $ompressed 0ir?Kow pressure 75' psi ma!.8, clean 7no oil8 and dryair can be used to dislodge loose dust and particles ininaccessible areas such as air vent ducts in the statorcore and vent passages in the winding end-turns.!cessive air pressure can damage insulation andcan drive contaminants into inaccessible crac4s andcrevices.

    B. Eacuum?Eacuum cleaning can be used, both before and afterother methods of cleaning, to remove loose dirt anddebris. /t is a very effective way to remove loosesurface contamination from the winding without

    scattering it. Eacuum cleaning tools should be non-metallic to avoid any damage to the winding insula-tion.

    $. Wiping?Surface contamination on the winding can beremoved by wiping, using a soft, lint-free wipingmaterial. /f the contamination is oily, the wipingmaterial can be moistened 7not dripping wet8 with asafety-type petroleum solvent, such as Stoddardsolvent. /n hazardous locations, a solvent such asinhibited methyl chloroform may be used, but must

    be used sparingly and immediately removed. Whilethis solvent is non-flammable under ordinaryconditions, it is to!ic and proper health and safety

    precautions should be followed while using it.Solvents of any type should never be used on wind-ings provided with abrasion protection. 0brasion

    protection is a grey, rubber-li4e coating applied tothe winding end-turns.

    The grease lubricant used in anti-friction bearingswill lose its lubricating ability over a period of time.This time generally is dependent upon the type of grease,the bearing size, the operating speed and the severity ofservice conditions. The frequency of regreasings is thusnot easily defined and must be based upon e!perience.Too frequent re-greasing is preferable to too infrequent

    regreasing.

    Before regreasing, the inlet fitting should be thor-oughly cleaned to prevent any accumulated dirt from

    being carried into the bearing with the new grease./nspect the outlet at the bottom of the bearing housing. /fgrease is pac4ed behind the opening that could prevent

    proper venting of the fresh grease, gently probe this areaand remove as much hardened grease as possible.

To minimizee!posure of the bearing to dirt, the bearing brac4et areassurrounding the bearing housing should be thoroughlycleaned before the housing is opened.

    NOTE, Some motors, due to environmental conditionsor to user specification, have been provided withadditional shaft seals. Two different types areused. 0 taconite lip seal is held onto the shaftwith set screws. Koosen the set screws and slidethis seal off of the shaft. /npro seals are held in

    place by pressure fit. To remove this seal,remove the bolts holding the motor bearing

    brac4et and advance it forward until the rotatingelement clears the shaft shoulder and falls loose.
