1. General
General safety regulations, specific agreements made for each work site and safety precautions
shown in this document must be observed at all times.
2. Intended use
Electric machines have dangerous live and rotating parts and may have hot surfaces. All
operations serving transport, storage, installation, connection, commissioning, operation and
maintenance shall be carried out by responsible skilled persons (in conformity with
EN 50 110-1 / DIN VDE 0105 / IEC 60364). Improper handling may cause serious personal
injury and damage to property. Danger!
These machines are intended for industrial and commercial installations as components as
defined in the Machinery Directive (MD) 98/37/EC. Commissioning is prohibited until
conformity of the end product with this directive has been established (follow particular local
safety and installation rules as, for example, EN 60204).
These machines comply with the harmonized series of standards EN 60034 / DIN VDE 0530.
Their use in explosive atmosphere is prohibited unless they are expressly designed for such use
(follow additional instructions).
On no account, use degrees of protection
≤
IP23 outdoors. Air-cooled models are typically
designed for ambient temperatures of -20°C up to +40°C and altitudes of
≤
1000 m above sea
level. Ambient temperature for air-/water-cooled models should be not less than +5°C (for
sleeve-bearing machines, see manufacturer's documentation). By all means, take note of
deviating information on the rating plate. Field conditions must conform to all rating plate
markings.
3. Transport, storage
Immediately report damage established after delivery to transport company. Stop
commissioning, if necessary. Lifting eyes are dimensioned for the weight of the machine, do not
apply extra loads. Ensure the use of correct lifting eyes. If necessary, use suitable, adequately
dimensioned means of transport (for example, rope guides). Remove shipping braces (for
example, bearing locks, vibration dampers) before commissioning. Store them for further use.
When storing machines, make sure of dry, dust and vibration free location (danger of bearing
damage at rest). Measure insulation resistance before commissioning. At values of
≤
1 k
Ω
per
volt of rated voltage, dry winding. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
4. Installation
Make sure of even support, solid foot or flange mounting and exact alignment in case of direct
coupling. Avoid resonances with rotational frequency and double mains frequency as a result of
assembly. Turn rotor and listen for abnormal slip noises. Check direction of rotation in
uncoupled state.
