1 Transport and storage

Only use the openings, lifting lugs and elements provided on the baseplates to transport machine sets (e.g. motor and coupled load)! It is not permissible to lift machine sets by just suspending them from the individual machines or motors! Carefully check the load capability of the hoisting equipment or crane being used to ensure that it is suitable!

Individual motors may only be suspended from their main lifting lugs or rails provided for this purpose! Lifting equipment and cranes must be dimensioned and selected corresponding to the motor weight (for motors from shaft height 180 onwards, the weight is stamped on the rating plate).

If the motors have additional mounted equipment, then please use suitable cable routing or spreader devices.

If secondary lifting lugs are provided – e.g. on fan shrouds, mounted coolers etc. – then these are only suitable for lifting that particular individual component.

1.1 Rotor shipping brace

Motors, e.g. with cylindrical roller bearings, individual angular-contact ball bearings or sleeve bearings, have an axial rotor shipping brace. This avoids bearing damage during transport. This rotor shipping brace may only be removed just before attaching the drive output element. If the motor has to be transported after the drive output element has been attached, other suitable measures must be applied to axially retain the rotor in place.

For motors with a vertical type of construction with individual angular-contact ball bearings, then the rotor must be retained before the motor is brought into a horizontal position.

1.2 Short-time storage

If a motor isn’t commissioned immediately, then it must be stored in a dry room or area that is free of any vibration. Details are, for example, provided in the corresponding Operating Manuals.

1.3 Long-time storage

Motors that are to be stored for a longer period of time, must be stored in a dry, well ventilated room or area (the atmosphere must be free of any aggressive gases such as ammoniac, chlorine, sulfur etc.). This room or area must, as far as possible, be free of dust and vibration. The relative air

humidity must be kept below 60% and the temperature approximately 10°C above the outside temperature. The motors must be well covered.

If storage rooms or areas are not available with the characteristics specified above, then the motor must be completely wrapped in a polyethylene foil and the seams of this foil must be welded or glued so that they are absolutely airtight. Several bags of desiccant must also be placed in the polyethylene foil to absorb the water vapor that penetrates through the foil. The appropriate number of desiccant bags must be suspended within the airtight packaging and a humidity indicating device must be provided inside the sealed packaging. This device measures the humidity of the air in the packaging in four stages. The desiccant must be monitored and if required, replaced.

For motors with condensation water drain holes, the plugs must be removed from time to time so that the condensation water - that has accumulated in the motor - can drain out.

The shaft end has a special coating to protect it against corrosion. This protective coating must be checked at regular intervals and if required replaced.

If the time between shipping the motor and commissioning it – under favorable conditions (where the motor is stored in a dry room or area that is free of dust and vibration) for more than 3 years, or under unfavorable conditions for more than 18 months, the bearings must be replaced or re-lubricated.

For motors with sleeve bearings, the oil reservoir of the sleeve bearing must be emptied. Open the bearings, remove the bearing shells, apply an anti-corrosion agent – e.g. Tectyl 506 – to the bare bearing components, bearing shells and bearing journals of the shaft and then re-assemble the bearings.

2 Commissioning

2.1 Preparation

After mounting or carrying-out service work, please check or ensure that:

• The motor was mounted and the operating conditions with the associated data match the data on the motor rating plate (voltages, currents, circuit configuration, type of construction, degree of protection, cooling etc.; also refer to the documentation supplied with the motor)

• As a result of the appropriately designed open-loop control and speed monitoring it is absolutely ensured that the motor cannot reach speeds that are higher than that stamped on the rating plate,

• The motor is correctly mounted and aligned

• The drive output elements, depending on their particular type have been correctly set and adjusted (e.g. belt tension for belt outputs; tooth edge and crest clearance for gearwheel output; aligning and balancing of couplings; radial play, axial guidance and the correct axial position for couplings of motors with sleeve bearings with two floating bearings)

• The minimum insulation resistances are maintained (this also applies after longer periods of time where the motor was not operational), refer to Point 1.4

• The motor is connected corresponding to the specified direction of rotation

• The cooling air flow is correct and not restricted - and the warm air discharged from the motor (also from adjacent equipment) isn’t directly drawn-in again,

• There is sufficient clearance between the cooling air input and wall/panel (e.g. ≥1/4 x diameter of the air intake opening)

• All retaining screws/bolts and connecting elements as well as electrical connections are correctly tightened,

• The grounding and potential bonding conductor connections are correctly established,

• Depending on the version, the bearings have been appropriately re-lubricated and have sufficient oil supply according to that stamped on the rating plate,

• For a newly installed motor that can be re-lubricated, or after a longer period when it was not operational, immediately after commissioning, the bearings must be re-lubricated at a minimum speed of n > 300 RPM

• If bearings are insulated, the insulation is not bypassed (the bearing insulation is stamped on the rating plate),

• Possible additional equipment (temperature monitoring in the winding or bearings, anti-condensation heating etc.) have been correctly connected and are functional

• All protective measures against moving or live (under voltage) parts have been applied and if the second shaft end is unused, its keys are secured so that they cannot be flung out

• If a separately-driven fan is being used, this is ready to operate and is connected corresponding to the specified direction of rotation and when operational, does not have a negative impact on the smooth running characteristics of the motor

• If brakes are being used, then they must have been carefully checked to ensure that they are operating perfectly,

• If air-to-water cooling is being used (e.g. heat exchanger), the this must have been connected to a water supply, filled, vented and is ready for operation (this also applies after longer periods where the motor was not operational).

NOTE: This list cannot be complete and extensive. Additional tests and checks may be necessary according to the appropriate supplementary instructions, or may be necessary corresponding to the specific situation at the plant or system.

2.2 Power-on

After motors have been mounted or service carried-out, we recommend that the following procedure is adhered to when commissioning motors:

• Start the motor without any load connected; to do this, close the circuit-breaker and after the motor starts, open the circuit-breaker again (“briefly start the motor” and check the direction of rotation)

• As the motor coasts down, check for bearing noise and vibration and check the bearing end shields.

• When the motor runs perfectly from a mechanical perspective, power-up the motor again and accelerate it up the highest permissible speed (according to that stamped on the rating plate).

• If the motor runs roughly or omits abnormal noise, power-down the motor and as the motor coasts down, evaluate the cause of the problems.

• If, immediately after the motor is powered-down, the mechanical running characteristics improve, then the reason for the problem is either magnetic or electrical. If the mechanical running characteristics do not improve after the motor is powered-down, then the cause is mechanical: For example, the electric motor or driven load could be out of balance, the machine set (motor plus driven load) is not correctly aligned.

• If the motor runs perfectly smoothly, if cooling equipment is being used, then power it up now (separately-driven fan, water cooler etc.). Continue to monitor the motor for some time under-no load operating conditions.

NOTE: Appropriately shorten the time for which the motor is powered-up if, for the “preliminary” test run, the separately-driven fan is still not to be operated.

• If the motor runs perfectly, connect the load to the motor. Check that the motor still continues to run smoothly and read-off and document the voltage, current, and power values. If at all possible, read-off and document the appropriate values for the driven load.

• Monitor the temperature of the bearings, windings etc. until steady-state values have been reached, document these values – if possible, using the available test and measuring equipment.

2.3 Powering-down

For motors, open the circuit-breaker and allow the motor to coast down unbraked.

If a separately-driven fan and cooling system are being used – and are not automatically controlled - then power them down and power-up the anti-condensation heating.

3 Maintenance Instructions for standard LV Motors

3.1 Safety instructions

Before carrying-out any type of work on the motor (especially before opening covers on the active parts), carefully ensure that the motor and/or the plant is powered-down and disconnected from the line supply in compliance with the applicable regulations. The safety rules listed in the Operating Instructions should be especially carefully observed. In addition to the main circuits, it is also important that any supplementary or auxiliary circuits are also powered-down – especially anti-condensation heating circuits!

The usual “5 safety rules” are as follows:

– Power-down and disconnect,

– Lock-out against accidental reclosure,

– Check and ensure that the system really is in a no-voltage condition,

– Ground and short-circuit (for voltage above 1000 V),

– Partition-off or cover adjacent, active parts and components.

3.2 Maintenance intervals

• Carry-out service & maintenance work carefully and at regular intervals

• Carry-out the appropriate inspections and audits in order to be able to identify possible faults and disturbances early on and resolve these before damage actually occurs.

• Adapt the service & maintenance intervals to the operating conditions and the local situation (pollution, power-on frequency, load, brush wear, insulation resistance).

• Carefully observe the re-lubrication intervals that are stamped on the rating plate.

Overview of service & maintenance intervals

Measures Intervals in operating hours At the latest after years

a) First inspection After approx. 500 h ½ year

b) Relubrication Approx. 1.000 h to 20.000 h depending on the bearings and operating type! 3 years

c) Cleaning Depending on the local degree of pollution and if brushes have to be replaced

d) Subsequent inspection

If favorable conditions prevail such as re-lubricating or grease change intervals

e) Main inspection Approx. every 16.000 h 2 years

3.3 Carrying-out an inspection

When carrying-out any inspection work, all of the appropriate safety regulations must be carefully complied with. Only specialist personnel who have been adequately trained may carry-out inspection work.

When operational, check that

• The specified technical data are maintained, for example

– Power drain,

– Temperatures (winding, environment, bearings, cooling air),

• No leaks occur (oil, grease or possibly water),

• Motor vibration levels remain below the highest permissible value (refer to 1.6),

• No abnormal bearing running noise can be heard (if required, carry-out an SPM measurement).

When stationary, check that

• The foundation is free of depressions and cracks,

• The motor alignment lies within permissible tolerances ,

• All of the mounting/retaining screws/bolts for mechanical as well as electrical connections are tight,

• The winding insulation resistance is adequately high (refer to 1.3),

• If insulated bearings are being used then the insulation is not bypassed (if insulated bearings are being used this is stamped on the rating plate),

• Cables and insulating parts, where accessible, are in an acceptable state and there are no signs of discoloring.

Generally, when carrying-out standard inspections, it isn’t necessary to disassemble motors. It only becomes necessary to disassemble the motor when cleaning it or when replacing the bearings.

4 Checking the insulation resistance

The insulation resistance is a measure for the insulating capability of the insulation of live (under voltage) parts and components with respect to ground and/or with respect to one another.

If the insulating resistance is too low, then this can be due to poor implementation, damage, accumulated dirt or moisture condensation on the insulation. A voltage check may only be carried-out when the insulation resistance is adequately high.

The safety rules according to EN 50110-1 (VDE 0105) - Operation of electrical plants and equipment and the appropriate Operating Instructions of the measuring and test equipment must be carefully observed when measuring the insulation value.

4.1 Preparation

All of the external feeder cables must be disconnected before measuring the insulation resistance. If electronic components are installed and cannot be subject to the specified DC test voltage – e.g. diodes, lightening/surge arresters and capacitors – then these must be disconnected before the measurements are carried-out. If so specified they should also be short-circuited.

4.2 Execution

The DC test voltage must be connected between the live (under voltage) parts or components to be tested or with respect to ground. The DC test voltage should be connected long enough until the display practically no longer changes. For motors, depending on the size (power rating) and winding capacitance, this state can be achieved in between just a few seconds and up to one minute. The DC test voltage is 500 V DC.

4.3 Values

Generally, the winding insulation resistances have a non-linear function with respect to the DC test voltage and the winding temperature. This is the reason that it should be carefully noted that reproducible results can only be achieved under precisely the same test conditions.

Nominal values for minimum insulating resistances of reasonably new windings are listed in the following table. Generally, the actual insulation resistances are significantly higher.

Rated voltage Minimum insulation resistance for a 500 V DC test voltage

At 25°C At 75°C

VN < 2 kV 10 MΩ 0.33 MΩ

VN ≥ 2 kV 100 MΩ 3.33 MΩ

While the motor is operational, the winding insulation resistance can decrease as a result of environmental and operating effects.

For a winding temperature of 25°C, the critical value of the insulation resistance is, depending on the rated voltage, obtained by multiplying the rated voltage in kV by the specific, critical resistance value of

0.5 MΩ/kV at VN < 2 kV 5 MΩ/kV at VN > 2 kV

Example: VN = 660 V Risol. > 0.66 kV x 0.5 MΩ/kV = 0.33 MΩ

If the measured insulation resistance lies above the calculated (theoretical) critical value while operational, then the machine can continue to be operated.

The minimum value of the insulation resistance Ris is related to temperature. This is the reason that for different winding temperatures, it is necessary to convert the insulation resistance. For clean, dry (hardened) windings, the insulation resistance Ris should be converted so that 10K temperature increase halves the insulation resistance Ris and a 10K temperature decrease doubles the insulation resistance Ris (10°C rule).

Example 1: The measured winding insulation resistance on a winding temperature of 85°C is 0.1 MΩ.

Referring to a winding temperature of 25°C, according to the 10°C rule, this corresponds to a value of 6.4 MΩ (see table)

Example 2: The measured winding insulation resistance on a winding temperature of 10°C is 200 MΩ.

Referring to a winding temperature of 25°C, according to the 10°C rule, this corresponds to a value of 200 MΩ (see table)

5.2 Lubrication and relubrication intervals

For motors that can be re-lubricated (i.e. they have regreasing equipment), as a result of defined re-lubrication intervals, the bearing lifetime can be extended and/or unfavorable influencing factors such as temperature, the effects of mounting, speed, bearing size and mechanical load/stress can be compensated. From shaft height 280 and upwards, bearings can be relubricated using a flat lubricating nipple M10 x 1 according to DIN 3404. Bearings can be relubricated using an optional nipple for shaft heights 100 to 250 (K40).

Motors with bearings that can be relubricated always have a lubrication instruction plate. This has information about the lubricating grease type, the regreasing interval and quantity of grease required for each lubrication point.

The specified grease change intervals apply for operation under normal load conditions, operation at speeds that correspond to those stamped on the rating plate, low-vibration operation, essentially neutral ambient air and the use of high-quality rolling bearing grease specified on the re-lubrication instruction plate (original lubrication).

K3N-Li or K3P-Li greases are to grease bearings of standard motors for the first time:

Motors 1LA6, 1LA8 – K3N-Li Grease SHELL Alvania RL3 (old G3)

Comment: The manufacturer has replaced Shell Alvania G3 by Shell Alvania RL3.

Only use suitable and tested, high-quality roller bearing greases to re-lubricate bearings. Only re-lubricate the bearings when the motor has a speed of at least n > 300 RPM.

These greases have lithium soap as thickening agent and mineral-based oil as basic oil. When using other K3N greases that may only comply with the minimum requirements according to DIN 51825 then the lubricating intervals must be halved.

Caution: Greases may never be mixed with different thickening agents and basic oils!

Motors 1LG4/6,1LA5/7/9 - K3P-Li grease ESSO UNIREX N3

Grease lifetimes and relubrication intervals are only valid in conjunction with this grease type.

Other greases must, as a minimum, comply with DIN 51825-KL3N (refer to the Table above). In this case, the lubricating intervals for KT >25°C should be reduced. Only re-lubricate bearings when the motor has a speed of at least n > 300 RPM.

Special greases Special greases are specified on the lubrication instruction plate. For instance, Klueberquiet BQH72-102 is used for high-speed motors that are fed from drive converters. This is grease with synthetic oil base that cannot be mixed with standard greases (mineral oil).

1) If the coolant temperature is increased by 10K, the grease life and

regreasing interval are halved. 2) 40000 h applies to horizontally mounted motors for coupling abrasion

(wear) without additional axial loads.

6 Vibration

6.1 Vibration severity

When evaluating the general vibration condition of electric motors the RMS vibration velocity is generally measured [mm/s] (frequency bandwidth between 10 Hz and 1000 Hz); this technique is generally sufficient.

The limit values for the measured vibration severity values are defined by ISO 10816-3 – depending on several machine classes.

The vibration condition is evaluated in four stages.

A recently commisioned operation

B unlimited long time operation

C short-time operation

D vibration that causes damage
