DANGER
Explosion hazard from hybrid mixtures
Hybrid mixtures are mixtures of flammable dusts with explosive gas/air atmospheres which
can together create a dangerous explosive atmosphere if they occur at the same time.
Changes can arise in the safety characteristics here, such as a change in the zonal
classification, increase in the explosion pressure, reduction in the minimum ignition energy
and a reduction in the maximum temperatures to be observed.
An explosion can result. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● For this reason, the relative characteristics must be considered both for gas (zones 0, 1
and 2) and for dust (zones 20, 21 and 22) where hybrid mixtures arise. It is necessary for
a competent assessor to determine in the individual case whether the parameters
determining ignition are unfavorably affected in a particular hybrid mixture.
● Motors with dual plates for G (“Gas”) and D (“Dust”) may only be used where these two
occur after prior examination of the properties of the hybrid mixtures by the user.

Preparations for use 4
Good planning and preparation of machine applications are essential in terms of keeping
installation simple and avoiding errors, ensuring safe operation, and allowing access to the
machine for servicing and corrective maintenance.
This chapter outlines what you need to consider when configuring your plant in relation to this
machine and the preparations you need to make before the machine is delivered.
4.1 Safety-related aspects to consider when configuring the plant
A number of residual risks are associated with the machine. These are described in the chapter
titled "Safety information" (Page 13) and in related sections.
Take appropriate safety precautions (covers, barriers, markings, etc.) to ensure the machine
is operated safely within your plant.
4.2 Observing the operating mode
Observe the machine's operating mode. Use a suitable control system to prevent overspeeds,
thus protecting the machine from damage.
4.3 Ensure adequate cooling
Ensure that the machine is sufficiently cooled by the cooling air flow at the installation site:
● Ensure that the cooling air can flow in and out unobstructed. The full air flow provided by
the fan is only possible if air can freely enter the impeller. In the axial direction, ensure a
clearance of at least 1 x air intake diameter.
● Make sure that the machine does not draw in the hot discharged air again.
● For machines with a vertical type construction with an air intake from above, ensure that
the air inlets are protected against the ingress of foreign bodies and water.
4.4 Interlock circuit for anti-condensation heating
If the anti-condensation heating is operated while the machine is running, this can increase
the temperatures inside the machine.
● Install an interlock circuit that switches off the anti-condensation heating once the main
machine is switched on.
● Only switch on the anti-condensation heating after the machine has been switched off.
SIMOTICS HV C 1NB1402-2AA84-4CA0-Z
Operating Instructions 06/2018 23

Switching on with the anti-condensation heating active (Page 77)
4.5 Noise emission
Excessive sound pressure levels can lead to hearing impairment or hearing loss.
● When assessing the noise level of the system, make due allowance for the noise emissions
from the machine.
● If necessary, take suitable noise protection measures for personnel.
4.6 Voltage and frequency fluctuations during line operation
Unless stated otherwise on the rating plate, the permissible voltage fluctuation is Âą10 % and
the permissible frequency fluctuation is Âą2 % in accordance with range B in IEC / EN 60034-1.
Permissible fluctuations that go beyond this are stamped on the rating plate.
Under operating conditions a machine may sometimes have to be operated outside the limits
of range A.
● Exceeding the permissible tolerances for voltage and frequency can lead to an
impermissibly high temperature rise of the winding. This can result in long-term damage to
the machine.
● Limit exceptions of this sort with regard to the values that arise, how often, and for how long
they occur.
● Where possible and within a reasonable time take corrective actions such as reducing the
power. In this way you can avoid that the service life of the machine is reduced as a result
of thermal aging.
4.7 Phase synchronization during supply system switching
Damage to the machine may be caused when switching to another supply system with different
phasing.
● The phasing must be synchronized during switching. Use appropriate means to
synchronize the phasing.
4.8 System-inherent frequencies
Excessively high vibration levels and system resonances can damage the machine set.
● Configure and match the system consisting of the foundation and machine set in such a
way that no system resonances can arise and result in the permissible vibration levels being
exceeded.
● The vibration values according to DIN ISO 10816-3 must not be exceeded.

4.9 Torsional loading of the drive train due to faults in the electrical supply
In the event of faults in the electrical connection, such as line switching operations with a
residual field or short circuit at the terminals, excessive air gap torques can occur. These
excessive air gap torques can lead to additional mechanical torsional loads on the shaft
assembly.
If the configuration does not correctly recognize the mechanical torsional loadings of the shaft
assembly, this can lead to serious damage to the machine. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
● When planning the system, make due allowance for the maximum air gap torques that can
occur. This data can be found in the "Electrical data".
The system planner is responsible for the entire drive train.
4.10 Switching high-voltage motors
If vacuum circuit breakers and vacuum contactors are used, then what are known as multiple
restrikes can occur when the machine is switched off. This depends on various factors, such
as:
● Arc-extinguishing principle of the switch
● Machine size
● Length of the power supply cable
● System capacitance, etc.
A surge suppressor to ground is installed in the switchgear between the circuit breaker and
the cable termination for each of the three conductors. The level of protection for the machine
windings is sufficient when the limiter is correctly selected (machine rated voltage / response
voltage).
Example
This current limit corresponds to the following upper power limits, depending on the relationship
between the starting current IA and rated current IN and on the voltage dip (up to approximately
20%) while the machine is starting up:
Table 4-1 Power limits
Rated voltage VNPower limit
3 kV 750 kW
6 kV 1500 kW
10 kV 2500 kW

4.11 Machines without final paint coating
For machines, which are only delivered with primer, you must paint them to comply with the
applicable guidelines for the specific application. The primer alone does not provide adequate
corrosion protection.
The paint applied must conform to the requirements to avoid electrostatic charging, see
EN 60079-0.
Please contact the Service Center for recommendations relating to the paint finish.
4.12 Thermal protection
The machine is optionally equipped with temperature sensors, e.g. Pt100, PTC thermistor, ....
Thermal motor protection by directly monitoring the winding temperature is permissible if this
is certified and test data specified on the rating plate. Temperature sensors for directly
monitoring the temperature guarantee explosion protection in conjunction with function tested
tripping devices with type of protection marking II (2) G.
● Direct temperature monitoring for line (DOL) operation: Motors operating with duty type S1
either require a circuit breaker or the temperature must be directly monitored (temperature
sensor and associated tripping device). Evaluate the temperature sensors.
● Direct temperature monitoring for inverter operation: The temperature must be directly
monitored (temperature sensor and associated tripping device). Evaluate the temperature
sensors.
● If you have to perform a continuity test of the temperature sensors, do not apply a voltage
>2.5 V. If no test data is specified on the rating plate, this means that the winding protection
is only intended as an additional protection.
● For pole-changing motors, use a direct temperature monitoring sensor as stated on the
rating plate, e.g. PTC thermistor according to DIN 44081/44082, for each speed level in
addition to the separate, mutually interlocked motor protection relays.
Every machine must be protected against an inadmissible temperature rise. Observe the
following:
● Protect every machine according to IEC/EN 60079–14 using a current-dependent, delayed
circuit breaker with phase failure protection according to IEC/EN 60947 or a similar device
in all phases.
● Set the protective device (e.g. circuit breaker) to the rated current. The value is stamped
on the rating plate.
● For windings in a delta connection, protect the winding in such a way that the tripping device
or relay is connected in series with the winding phases. When selecting and setting the
tripping unit, define the rated value of the phase current. The phase current is 0.58 times
the rated machine current. Any thermal machine protection via direct temperature
monitoring to be used in addition to the machine circuit breaker is specified on the rating
plate if required.

● Wrap the machine in humidity-absorbent material.
● Wrap the machine in plastic film:
– Place a humidity meter inside the plastic film.
– Place desiccant within the plastic film.
– Pack the machine air-tight.
● Inspect the machine regularly.
● Store the machines in a dry, dust-free room where the temperature is controlled. Special
packing is therefore not necessary. In all other cases, pack the machines in a plastic film
with a substance that absorbs moisture, e.g. Branogel, or in hermetically sealed welded
foil. Use a protective cover to protect against sun and rain.
● Store the machines only in vibration-free rooms in order to avoid consequential damage to
the bearings due to vibration at standstill.
The materials used are specially designed for the temperature range required by the customer.
The relevant temperature limits are specified on the rating plate.
WARNING
Risk of explosion due to damaged sealing materials
Storing the machine at temperatures that do not fall within the specified limits can damage
the material of the seals and cause them to fail. As a result, a potentially explosive gaseous
atmosphere can enter the machine and be ignited during commissioning. Explosions can
occur. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● Do not store the machine in conditions that lie outside the specified temperature limits.
4.13.9 Storing machines together with the driven machine
● Before mounting the machines, grease the free parts of the shaft extension, as well as all
other bare metal parts, such as mounting foot surfaces, flange surfaces, terminal box and
cover contact surfaces. Attach caps filled with roller bearing grease to the shaft output gland
to provide protection against dust and humidity.
● Fill the terminal boxes of the machines with a substance that will absorb moisture, e.g.
Branogel.
● Store the machines in a dry, dust-free room where the temperature is controlled.

5.1.3 Testing the insulation resistance and polarization index
WARNING
Hazardous voltage at the terminals
During and immediately after measuring the insulation resistance or the polarization index
(PI) of the stator winding, hazardous voltages may be present at some of the terminals.
Contact with these can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● If any power cables are connected, check to make sure line supply voltage cannot be
delivered.
● Discharge the winding after measurement until the risk is eliminated, e.g. using the
following measures:
– Connect the terminals with the ground potential until the recharge voltage drops to a
non-hazardous level
– Attach the connection cable.
Measure the insulation resistance
1. Before you begin measuring the insulation resistance, please read the operating manual
for the insulation resistance meter you are going to use.
2. Short-circuit the ends of the temperature sensor cables before applying the test voltage. If
the test voltage is connected to only one temperature sensor terminal, the temperature
sensor will be destroyed.
3. Make sure that no power cables are connected.
4. Measure the winding temperature and the insulation resistance of the winding in relation
to the machine enclosure. The winding temperature should not exceed 40° C during the
measurement. Convert the measured insulation resistances in accordance with the formula
to the reference temperature of 40° C. This thereby ensures that the minimum values
specified can be compared.
5. Read out the insulation resistance one minute after applying the measuring voltage.

For a winding temperature of approx. 25° C, the minimum insulation resistances are 20 MΊ
(U ≤ 1000 V) or 300 MΩ (U > 1000 V). The values apply for the complete winding to ground.
Twice the minimum values apply to the measurement of individual assemblies.
● Dry, new windings have an insulation resistance of between 100 and 2000 MΩ, or possibly
even higher values. An insulation resistance value close to the minimum value could be
due to moisture and/or dirt accumulation. The size of the winding, the rated voltage and
other characteristics affect the insulation resistance and may need to be taken into account
when determining measures.
● Over its operating lifetime, the motor winding insulation resistance can drop due to ambient
and operational influences. Calculate the critical insulation resistance value depending on
the rated voltage by multiplying the rated voltage (kV) by the specific critical resistance
value. Convert the value for the current winding temperature at the time of measurement,
see above table.
Measuring the polarization index
1. To determine the polarization index, measure the insulation resistances after one minute
and ten minutes.
2. Express the measured values as a ratio:
PI =
R
insul 10 min /
R
insul 1 min
Many measuring devices display these values automatically following the measurement.
For insulation resistances > 5000 MΊ, the measurement of the PI is no longer meaningful and
consequently not included in the assessment.
R(10 min) / R(1 min) Assessment

< 2 Dependent on the complete diagnosis of the insulation
NOTICE
Damage to insulation
If the critical insulation resistance is reached or undershot, this can damage the insulation
and cause voltage flashovers.
● Contact the service center (Page 111).
● If the measured value is close to the critical value, you must subsequently check the
insulation resistance at shorter intervals.
Limit values of the anti-condensation heating insulation resistance
The insulation resistance of the anti-condensation heating with respect to the machine housing
should not be lower than 1 MΊ when measured at 500 V DC.

5.2.4 Mounting the output elements
Balance quality
The rotor is dynamically balanced. For shaft extensions with featherkeys, the balancing type
is specified using the following coding on the face of the drive end of the shaft:
● "H" means balancing with a half feather key
● "F" means balancing with a whole feather key.
Figure 5-2 Balancing type on the drive-end side
Pushing on the power output elements
● Prerequisites:
– The coupling and/or the output element must be appropriately dimensioned for the
operating case at hand. The balance quality must satisfy the following requirements.
– Comply with the coupling manufacturer's instructions.
– Make sure that the balancing type of the transmission element correctly matches the
type of balance of the rotor.
– Use only ready drilled and balanced transmission elements. Check the hole diameters
and the balancing status before pulling them on. Thoroughly clean the shaft extension.
● Pulling on:
– Warm up the transmission elements to expand them before pulling them on. Select the
temperature difference for the heating process to suit the coupling diameter, fit and
material. See the coupling manufacturer's instructions.
– Power output elements may only be pushed on or pulled off with the correct equipment.
The output element must be pulled on in one continuous operation using the front thread
holes in the shaft or pulled on by hand.
– Do not strike it with a hammer, as this would damage the bearings.
Assembly
5.2 Lift the machine to where it will be installed, and position it
SIMOTICS HV C 1NB1402-2AA84-4CA0-Z
Operating Instructions 06/2018 47
Shaft extensions with feather key
To maintain the balancing quality, you have the following options:
● If the output element is shorter than the feather key with balancing type "H", then you must
machine off the section of feather key protruding from the shaft contour and output element.
Alternatively, ensure that the weights are compensated to achieve the appropriate balance
quality.
● If the transmission element is drawn up on to the shoulder of the shaft, you must ensure
that the part of the coupling groove where the feather key is not inserted is taken into
consideration when balancing the coupling.
The following applies for all 2-pole machines and 4-pole machines with a frequency ≥ 60 Hz:
● The feather key must be shortened if the coupling hub is shorter than the feather key.
● The center of gravity of the coupling half should be within the length of the shaft end.
● The coupling used must be prepared for system balancing.
The number of poles of the machine is specified on the rating plate (in the designation of
the motor type).
WARNING
The feather key can fall out
The feather keys are only locked against falling out during shipping. If a machine with two
shaft extensions does not have an output element on one shaft extension, the feather key
can fall out during operation.
Death or serious injury can result.
● If the machine is to be operated without output elements, secure the feather key on the
free shaft extension so that it cannot be flung out.
● To avoid imbalance, for balancing type "H", reduce the weight of the feather key to 60 %
of the original weight.
5.2.5 Lifting the machine

5.3.1 Safety instructions for installation
Injury and material damage caused by inappropriate fastening material
If screws of an incorrect property class have been selected or if they have been fastened to
an incorrect tightening torque, they may break or become loose. This will cause the machine
to move, which could damage the bearings. The rotor could smash into the machine enclosure
and machine parts could be flung out of place. This can result in death, serious injury or material
damage.
● Comply with the required property classes for screwed connections.
● Tighten the screwed connections to the specified tightening torques.
Injury and material damage caused by incorrect machine alignment
If the machine has not been properly aligned, this will mean the fastening parts are subjected
to stress/distortion. Screws may become loose or break, the machine will move, machine parts
could be flung out of place. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● Carefully align the machine to the driven machine.
Material damage caused by improper handling
Mounting parts such as temperature sensors or speed sensors are attached to the machine
and could be ripped off or destroyed as a result of improper handling. This could lead to
machine malfunctions, extending even to total loss of the machine.
● Where necessary, use suitable steps when performing installation work on the machine.
● Do not stand on cables or attachments during installation. Do not use attachments as steps.
5.3.2 Selecting bolts
● Use fixing bolts with the appropriate property class to ensure that the machine is securely
fastened and torque can be adequately transmitted.
● When selecting the bolts and the design of the foundation, take into account the maximum
forces occurring in the case of a fault such as short circuit or line system transfer operations
in phase opposition, etc. Values for the foundation forces can be found in the "Technical

5.3.5 Aligning the machine to the driven machine and mounting it
The standard flange is provided with a centering. The choice of fit for the mating flange on the
driven machine is the system manufacturer's or the plant operator's responsibility.
Note
If the machine is not fitted with a standard flange, align the machine to suit the driven machine.
Procedure
The machine axis must be vertical when it is lifted and the flange must be parallel to the mating
flange, so as to avoid seizing and stressing. Otherwise damage to the centering will result.
1. Grease the centering flange with assembly paste to make the process easier.
2. Screw in two studs into tapped holes on opposite sides of the driven machine flange. The
studs act as positioning aids.
3. Lower the machine slowly toward the driven machine and into the centering, so that the
flanges do not quite touch. Lowering too quickly risks damaging the centering.
4. If necessary, rotate the machine into the right position so that the clearance holes in the
flange are central to the tapped holes.

WARNING
Hazard due to electric shock
The installation of the temperature sensors for the winding monitoring with respect to the
winding is implemented according to the requirements for basic insulation. The temperature
sensor connections are located in terminal boxes, safe to touch, and have no protective
separation. This is the reason that in the case of a fault, a hazardous voltage can be present
at the measuring sensor cable. When touched, this can result in death, severe bodily injury
and material damage.
● When connecting the temperature sensor to external temperature monitoring devices,
when required, apply additional measures to fully comply with the requirements set out in

7.2 Insulation resistance and polarization index
Measuring the insulation resistance and polarization index (PI) provides information on the
condition of the machine. It is therefore important to check the insulation resistance and the
polarization index at the following times:
● Before starting up a machine for the first time
● After an extended period in storage or downtime
● Within the scope of maintenance work
The following information is provided regarding the state of the winding insulation:
● Is the winding head insulation conductively contaminated?
● Has the winding insulation absorbed moisture?
As such, you can determine whether the machine needs commissioning or any necessary
measures such as cleaning and/or drying the winding:
● Can the machine be put into operation?
● Must the windings be cleaned or dried?
Detailed information on testing and the limit values can be found here:
"Testing the insulation resistance and polarization index" (Page 41)
7.3 Greasing the roller bearings prior to commissioning
●Regrease the roller bearings prior to commissioning if the machine has been out of
operation for more than a year. The shaft must rotate so that the new grease can be
distributed across the bearings.
●Regrease the roller bearings prior to commissioning in the following circumstances:
– When the machine has been in storage in favorable conditions, e.g. in dry rooms that
are free of dust and vibrations. This applies to the period between delivery and
commissioning, or longer periods of stoppage.
– If the machine has been in storage in unfavorable conditions for more than two years.
Note
Pay attention to the instructions on the lubricant plate.
● If the machine is equipped with grease removal valves, after relubricating, remove the
grease used by completely withdrawing the valve mounted at the bearing several times.
The machine must be operational while doing this.
● If the machine is equipped with grease collection chambers, unscrew the grease collection
chambers after the interval specified on the plate with the motor stationary and remove the
spent bearing grease. If this is not done, the grease will clog and the bearings will overheat.
● Continually check the bearing temperature rise. When using the specified grease quality,
for a maximum room temperature of 40 °C, the maximum bearing temperature rise is 80 K.

Avoiding mechanical damage to bearings
Regularly inspect all machines for any mechanical damage. Especially observe that the
bearing replacement intervals and relubrication intervals, respectively grease change intervals
or oil change intervals specified by the machine manufacturer are maintained.
Replace the bearings once they have reached their nominal service life or verify that they are
mechanically in good working order as part of an inspection.
● Where bearings are sealed for life, there is a guarantee that the rated service life is achieved
only well after expiry of the service life of the grease in the bearing.
● The theoretical nominal service life of the bearings can be taken from the data sheet of the
machine if this was specified – or was specifically defined for mechanical design reasons
for a particular application.
● Where machines are subject to externally applied forces (e. g. the force on a drive belt or
axial forces arising from the driven machine), at the full loadings listed on the technical
specification the rated service life of the bearings is at least 20,000 hours.
● For all other machines, the rated service life of the bearings is at least 40,000 hours.
● For bearings with external oil supply, monitor the lubrication system to ensure that it is
operating correctly.
7.4 Test run
After installation or inspection, carry out a test run:
1. Start up the machine without a load. To do this, close the circuit breaker and do not switch
off prematurely. Check whether it is running smoothly.
Switching the machine off again while it is starting up and still running at slow speed should
be kept to a bare minimum, for example for checking the direction of rotation or for checking
in general.
Allow the machine to run down before switching it on again.
NOTICE
Avoiding mechanical damage to the cylindrical roller bearing
Under all circumstances maintain the minimum load on cylindrical roller bearings of 50%
corresponding to what is specified in the catalog.
2. If the machine is running smoothly and evenly, switch on the cooling equipment. Continue

3. If it runs perfectly, connect a load.
NOTICE
Thermal overload of motors connected directly to the line supply
In addition to the load torque, the ramp-up (accelerating) time is essentially influenced by
the moment of inertia to be accelerated. While ramping up when connected to the line
supply, the inrush (starting) current is a multiple of the rated current. This can result in
thermal overload. This can damage the motor.
As a consequence, when ramping up, observe the following:
● Monitor the ramp-up time and number of consecutive starts.
● Comply with the limit values and/or ramp-up conditions specified in the catalog or the
order documentation.
4. During the test run, check and document the following:
– Check whether it is running smoothly.
– Document the voltage, current and power values. As far as possible, document the
corresponding values of the driven machine.
– If this is possible using the available measuring equipment, check the bearing and stator
winding temperatures until they have reached steady-state values.
– Check the machine for noise or vibrations on the bearings or bearing shields as it runs.
5. In case of uneven running or abnormal noise, switch off the machine. As the machine runs
down, identify the cause.
– If the mechanical operation improves immediately after the machine is switched off, then
the cause is magnetic or electrical.
– If the mechanical running does not improve immediately after switching the machine off,
then the cause is mechanical.
- Imbalance of the electrical machine or the driven machine
- The machine set has not been adequately aligned
- The machine is being operated at the system resonance point. System = motor, base
frame, foundation, ...
NOTICE
Serious damage to the machine
If the vibration values in operation are not maintained in accordance with
DIN ISO 10816-3, then the machine can be mechanically destroyed.
● During operation, observe the vibration values in accordance with DIN ISO 10816‑3.
7.5 Overvoltages when switching high-voltage motors

8.1 Safety instructions for operation
Risk of explosion when the bridging across the insulated bearing is removed
If the machine was factory-fitted with bridging of the insulated drive-end bearing, this bridging
must not be removed. The consequence of doing so would be to allow potential differences to
develop between the rotor and the grounded machine. This can cause the generation of sparks,
which especially in an explosive atmosphere can ignite the surrounding gas. Explosions can
occur. There is also a risk of an electric shock. Death, serious injury, or material damage will
result.
● Do not disconnect the bridging of the bearing insulation at the drive end during operation.
● Comply with the plates on the machine relating to bearing insulation and possible bridging
options.
Risk of injury due to rotating parts
Rotating parts are dangerous. Touch protection against rotating parts is no longer guaranteed
if covers are removed. Touching rotating parts can result in death, serious injury or material
damage.
● Carefully ensure that all of the covers are closed while operational.
● First switch off and disconnect the machine if you must remove covers. Comply with the
"Five safety rules":
● Only remove the covers when the rotating parts have come to a complete standstill.

Danger as a result of stationary parts under voltage (live parts)
Live parts represent a hazard. Touch protection against active (live) parts is no longer
guaranteed if covers are removed. The minimum air and creepage distances may be fallen
below (violated) when coming close to active parts. Touching or coming close can result in
death, serious injury or material damage.
● Carefully ensure that all of the covers are closed while operational.
● First switch off and disconnect the machine if you must remove covers. Comply with the
"Five safety rules":
● When the machine is in operation, the terminal boxes must remain closed at all times.
Terminal boxes may be opened only when the machine is stopped and in a no-voltage
condition.
Faults in operation
Any changes with respect to the normal condition can indicate that the machine is not
functioning correctly.

8.6 Stoppages
The stoppage is a shutdown for a period of time, during which the machine is stopped but
remains at the location of use.
Under normal ambient conditions, e. g. the stopped machine is not exposed to any vibration,
no increased level of corrosion, etc. in general, the following measures are necessary during
stoppages.
Measures for machines ready to operate during longer non-operational periods
● For longer periods when the machine is not being used, either energize it at regular intervals
(roughly once a month), or at least spin the rotor.
● Please refer to the section "Switching on" (Page 77) before switching on to recommission
the motor.
NOTICE
Damage due to improper storage
The machine can be damaged if it is not stored properly.
● If the motor is out of service for extended periods of time, implement suitable anti-
corrosion, preservation, and drying measures.
● When recommissioning the motor after a long period out of service, carry out the
measures recommended in the chapter entitled "Commissioning (Page 69)".
8.6.1 Avoidance of condensation or formation of condensation within the machine
● If the controller does not do this automatically, switch on any anti-condensation heating
during stoppages. This will avoid the formation of condensation.

WARNING
Explosion hazard
If the anti-condensation heating is switched on directly after the machine is switched off, the
temperature class or the maximum surface temperature of the machine can be exceeded.
In an explosive atmosphere, there is a risk of an explosion. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
● Only switch on the anti-condensation heating after the motor has been switched off.
Carefully comply with the data on the anti-condensation heating plate.
8.6.2 Avoidance of damage to roller bearings during stoppages
Extended stoppages at the identical or almost identical resting position of the rotor in the roller
bearings can result in damage, such as brinelling or corrosion.
● During stoppages, regularly start up the machine for a brief period once a month. As a
minimum, turn the rotor several times.
If you have uncoupled the machine from the driven machine and secured the rotor with a
rotor shipping brace, then remove this before turning the rotor over or starting up the
machine.
Make sure that the resting position of the rotor after the rotor has been turned over is
different from its previous position. Use the fitted key or the coupling halves as reference
markers.
● During recommissioning, refer to the information in Chapter "Commissioning".

Observe the following when changing over to an alternative type of grease that is permitted according
to the table:
Bearings with permanent lubrication:
● Completely remove the old grease from the bearing before regreasing it.
● Fill roller bearings completely with grease and cavities in the bearing cover only up to one
third.
Bearings with regreasing:
If complete replacement of grease and cleaning of the bearing is not possible, keep the
operating time to a minimum when different greases are mixed. To do this, thoroughly grease
the bearing when the machine is running with about twice the amount of grease until spent
grease has been removed from the greasing ducts. Then regrease 4x at intervals of Âź of the
normal greasing interval. During this time, very carefully monitor the bearing locations involved.
Then resume the normal greasing intervals.
NOTICE
Damage due to mixing grease types
If you mix greases and oils with different soap or oil bases, then the lubricating properties
may no longer be guaranteed.
Mixing low-temperature grease with normal temperature grease can cause lumps to form in
the lubricant. The consequence can be damage to the roller bearings due to overheating.
Never mix greases that have different thickening agents and different base oils.
9.3.7 Removing spent grease
If the specifications on the lubricant plate are observed, the spent grease chamber will provide
capacity for a calculated service life of at least 40 000 operating hours, approx. five years.
When the spent grease chamber is full, the spent grease must be removed prior to

relubrication. This is indicated by the fact that during relubrication, oil or grease escapes at the
bearing cover.
● To remove the spent grease, loosen the outer bearing cap.
NOTICE
Removing spent grease
If the spent grease is not removed, then the roller bearings become too hot and can seize
up as the grease distribution mechanism is disturbed.
WARNING
Working on the locating bearing
If the motor is in a vertical position, the rotor can fall out while work is being performed on
the locating bearing. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
Support or reduce the load on the rotor when carrying out work with the machine in a
vertical position.
9.3.8 Cleaning cooling air ducts and passages
The cooling ducts must be free of any pollution in order that the machine is adequately cooled.
● Regularly clean the grids, ducts, ribs, pipes etc. to remove dust and pollution.
● Regularly clean the cooling air passages through which the ambient air flows, e.g. using
dry compressed air.
NOTICE
Motor overheating caused by dirt
The frequency of the cleaning intervals depends on the local degree of fouling. The
machine will overheat if the cooling air ducts are polluted and the cooling air cannot flow
without obstruction.
● Regularly check for dirt.
● Clean the cooling air ducts through which the ambient air flows.
