also applies to the green-yellow protective earthing con-
ductor and the outer earthing conductor (see Fig. 3.2).
Please refer to Fig. 4 for tightening torques for terminal bolts and
nuts (except for terminal strips).
2.5 Checking the insulation resistance
The insulation resistance of the windings must be measured prior
to initial startup of the machine, after long periods of storage or
standstill (approx. 6 months).
While the measurement is being tak-
WARNING
en and immediately afterwards, some
of the terminals carry dangerous
voltages and must not be touched.
Insulation resistance
- The minimum insulation resistance of new, cleaned or re-
paired windings with respect to ground is 10 MOhm.
- The critical insulation resistance R
multiplying the rated voltage U
stant factor (0.5 MOhm/kV):
R = 0.69 kV * 0.5 MOhm/kV = 0.345 MOhm.
crit
Measurement
The minimum insulation resistance of the windings to ground
is measured with 500 V DC. The winding temperature should then
o o
be 25 C ± 15 C.
The critical insulation resistance should be measured with 500
V DC with the winding at operating temperature.
Checking
If the minimum insulation resistance of a new, cleaned or
repaired machine, which has been stored or at standstill for a
prolonged period of time, is less than 10 MOhm, this may be due
to humidity. The windings must then be dried.
After long periods of operation, the minimum insulation resist-
ance may drop to the critical insulation resistance. As long as
the measured value does not fall below the calculated value of the
critical insulation resistance, the machine may continue in op-
eration. If it does, the machine must be stopped immediately.
The cause must be determined, and the windings or winding sec-
tions repaired, cleaned or dried as necessary.
2.6 Commissioning
NOTE: Where the torque is very uneven (the drive of a piston-
type compressor, for example), the inevitable result is a non-
sinusoidal motor current, whose harmonics can lead to exces-
sive system perturbation or excessive electromagnetic interfer-
ence.
In the case of converter-fed motors, high-frequency current or
voltage harmonics in the motor cables can give rise to electro-
magnetic interference. That is why the use of shielded cables is
recommended.
Before commissioning, check that:
- The minimum insulation resistances are adhered to
- The rotor turns freely without rubbing
- The motor is properly assembled and aligned
- The transmission elements are correctly adjusted (e.g. belt
tension) and the transmission element is suitable for the given
operating conditions
- All electrical connections, mounting screws and connecting
elements are properly tightened and fitted
- All protective conductors are properly installed
- Any auxiliaries that may be fitted (brakes, speedometer, sepa-
rate fan) are in working order
- Touch protection guards are installed around moving and live parts
- The maximum speed n

noise and vibration are worse at this speed, and bearing life is
reduced.
CAUTION
It is not possible to formulate a complete check list. Other
checks may also be necessary!
3 Maintenance
Safety precautions
WARNING
live or moving parts, the motor must be properly isolated
from the power supply. Besides the main circuits, any
additional or auxiliary circuits that may be present must
also be isolated.
The usual "5 safety rules" (as set forth in DIN VDE 0105)
are:
- Isolate the equipment
- Take effective measures to prevent reconnection
- Verify equipment is dead
- Earth and short-circuit
- Cover or fence off adjacent live parts
The precautions listed above should remain in force un-
til all maintenance work is finished and the motor has
been fully assembled.
NOTE: Where motors are fitted with closed condense water open-
ings, these should be opened from time to time to allow any
accumulated condense water to be drained away.
Condense water openings should always be at the lowest point of
the motor!
Fitting new bearings, grease lifetime, type of grease
Under normal operating conditions, with horizontally mounted
motors and coolant temperatures up to 40 °C, the grease lifetime
should be:
- approx. 40,000 operating hours for speeds of 1500 rpm
- approx. 20,000 operating hours for speeds of 3000 rpm
Irrespective of the number of operating hours, the grease should
be renewed every 3 years because of ageing. In this case the
bearings should be dismounted, washed and newly greased. The
modifications with additional greasing are to be maintained ac-
cording to instructions on the lubricating data plate.
In the case of motors operating under special conditions, such as
vertical motor position, frequent operation at maximum speed
n , heavy vibration, sudden load changes and frequent revers-
max
ing operation, the bearing should be changed at considerably
more frequent intervals than at the operating hours stated above.
The motors are standardly equipped with radial ball bearings of 62
... series or with option K36 - radial ball bearings of 63 ... series
which are provided with a cover plate (ZC3 version).
The cover plate is arranged on that side of the bearing facing the
frame (stator).
NOTE: Notice the cover plate arrangement and the bearing clear-
ance when changing the bearings because standard modifica-
tions can differ from special motors!
The cover plate material should withstand temperatures from -
20 °C to +150 °C, e.g. polyacryl-rubber (ACM).
