Inspections in the event of faults
Natural disasters or unusual operating conditions, such as overloading or short circuit, are
faults that overload the motor electrically or mechanically.
Immediately perform an inspection after such faults.
Correct the cause of the fault as described in the respective remedial measures section.
Repair any damage to the motor.
8.6.2
Electrical faults
Note
If you are operating the motor with a converter, the operating instructions of the converter
must also be observed if electrical faults occur.
