Maintenance 

 

 

WARNING

 

Explosion or fire. 

Can cause death, serious injury or property damage. 
Do not modify explosion-proof or dust ignition-proof 
motors.  These motors are constructed to comply with 
the U.L. Label Service Procedure Manual.  When 
reassembling a motor that has a U.L. Label, it is 
imperative that: 
1. 

The original fits and tolerances be maintained. 

2. 

All plugs and hardware be securely fastened. 

3. 

Any part replacements are accurate duplicates of 
the original. 

4. 

Reassembled motor must be inspected under  
U.L. Follow-Up Service Program; repaired motor is 
to be relabeled by U.L. listed service shop. 

To violate any of the above will invalidate the 
significance of this label, as the motor may no longer 
meet safety requirements for use in hazardous 
locations. 

 

Inspection 

 
Each motor should be inspected at regular intervals.  
The frequency and thoroughness will depend on the 
operating hours, nature of service, and the 
environment. 
 

Antifriction Bearing

 

Access to the motor interior can be gained by 
removal of the bearing housing. 
 
1.  Remove the bolts holding the inner bearing end 

cap to the housing. 

2.  Remove the bolts holding the bearing housing to 

the yoke. 

3.  Remove the bearing housing by pulling it away 

from the face of the yoke.  It will be necessary to 
first remove the fan housing and external fan 
from the non-drive end of the motor to gain 
access to the bearing housing. 

 

 

Sleeve Bearing - 500 Frame 

Access to the motor interior can be gained by 
removal of the upper half of the horizontally split 
bearing bracket. 
 
1.  Remove the parting bolts at the horizontal split. 
2.  Remove the bolts at the outer circumference of 

the upper half of the split-bearing bracket. 

3.  Pull the upper bracket away from the face of the 

frame and remove bracket. 

The entire procedure can be done without disturbing 
the bearing enclosure or coupling alignment of the 
motor to the load.  The split-bearing capsule is held 
together by bolts. 
 
 

Sleeve Bearing - 580, 708, 788, 880 Frames 

Access to the motor interior can be gained by 
removal of the bearing bracket as follows: 
 
1.  First remove the bearing housing cap and 

bearing liners as described under 

Bearing

 

Replacement

2.  Remove floating labyrinth seals or oil seals as 

equipped. 

3.  Remove the bearing housing from the bearing 

bracket. 

4.  Carefully remove the bearing bracket with inner 

motor seal from the motor. 

 

Cleanliness

 

The exterior should be kept free of oil, dust, dirt, 
water, and chemical.  It is particularly important to 
keep the air intake and exhaust openings free of 
obstructions. 
 

NOTE 

If equipment is operated intermittently in very damp 
locations, it should be protected by space heaters. To 
retard corrosion, grease all machined fits when the 
unit is reassembled after a maintenance check. 

 

Loading 

Overloading causes overheating and reduces 
insulation life.  A winding subjected to a 10°C 
temperature rise above the maximum limit for its 
class may have its insulation life halved. 
 
Underloading a motor is improper as it lowers the 
motor power factor and efficiency which results in 
higher power cost.
