The connection must be made in a way that the permanent safe electrical
connection is maintained. Use appropriate cable terminals. Establish and maintain
safe equipotent bonding.
The clearances between uninsulated live parts and between such parts and earth
must not be below the values of appropriate standards and values possibly given
in manufacturer's documentation.
No presence of foreign bodies, dirt or moisture is allowed in the terminal box.
Close unused cable entrance holes and the box itself in a dust- and watertight
manner. For machines with accessories, check satisfactory functioning of these
before commissioning.
The proper installation (e.g. segregation of signal and power lines, screened cables
etc.) lies within the installer's responsibility.
1.7.6 Operation
Acceptable vibration values have to be determined according to application and
corresponding ISO standard. In case of deviations from normal operation - e.g
elevated temperature, noises or vibrations - disconnect the synchronous machine,
if in doubt. Establish cause and consult the manufacturer, if necessary.
Do not defeat protective devices, not even in trial run. In case of heavy dirt
deposits, clean cooling system at regular intervals.
From time to time, open closed condensation drain holes, if any.
Grease the bearings during commissioning before start-up in case of re-greasable
bearings. Re-grease antifriction bearings while the machine is running. Follow
instructions on lubrication plate. Use right kind of grease.
Refer to manufacturer's documentation for noise level and information about the
use of appropriate noise-reducing measures.
1.7.7 Maintenance and servicing
Follow the manufacturer's operating instructions. For further details, see
Chapter 7. Maintenance
in the User’s Manual. Preserve these safety instructions!
