Alarm and trip temperatures
The motor alarm and trip temperatures must be set at the
lowest possible value. These temperatures can be
determined based on the factory tests or through the
motor operating temperature. The alarm temperature can
be set 10 ºC above the machine operating temperature at
full load, always considering the highest ambient
temperature on site. The adjusted trip temperatures must
not exceed the maximum admissible temperatures for the
stator winding insulation class and for the bearings
(considering the lubrication type and system), according
to Table 4.5.
