Lifting lugs/eyes/points for lifting slings and lifting position of the electric machine
Horizontal lifting
For lifting, use the inbuilt lifting eyes in the electric machine frame.
Storage
Do not touch the electrical terminals when the shaft is rotated. The electrical terminals have
dangerous voltage during rotation.
Keep the electric machine on a correct base. Support the electric machine to prevent
accidental turning and falling.
•
Store the electric machine always indoors with the storage temperature above -20 ºC and the relative
humidity less than 60 %.
•
The storage should be dry, dust free and vibration free.
•
Treat the unprotected electric machine surfaces such as the shaft-end and flanges against corrosion.
Seal the cable exit holes and cooling bores for storage.
•
The electric machine must not be subject to any external vibrations during storage to avoid damage
to the bearings.
•
Use anti-condensation heaters, if fitted, or direct winding heating to avoid water condensing in the
electric machine.
•
Rotate the shaft of the electric machine by hand monthly at least ten revolutions to prevent grease
migration. If necessary, use a tool, for example a spanner. Do not damage the shaft in any case.
