Preliminary work after longer periods of storage
Depending on the duration and ambient conditions during storage, corrosion, aging of
lubricants, embrittlement of sealing elements, and moisture absorption in the insula-
tion may occur.
Drives that have been stored for longer than 9 months may require the following
measures.
Corrosion
•
Check for damage to motor and/or components (coating, shafts, connection and
fastening parts).
•
Correct corrosion damage.
Embrittlement of seals
•
Visually inspect seals and look for tears, hardening, and embrittlement.
•
Replace any damaged seals.
Reduced grease service life
If the drives are stored for longer than a year, the service life of the bearing grease is
reduced due to aging and de-oiling of the lubricant.
•
Check the condition and usability of the rolling bearings.
•
Replace any damaged rolling bearing.
Reduced grease quantity
•
If motors are stored for longer than 5 years, regrease them according to the spe-
cifications on the motor nameplate using a relubrication device.
Moisture absorption
•
Check to see that the wiring space of the motor is dry and clean.
•
Remove moisture and dirt.
•
If the motor has absorbed moisture, measure the insulation resistance (see
chapter "Measuring the insulation resistance" (→
32)) and dry the motor (see
chapter "Drying the motor" (→
34)).
4.2.1
Checking the brake
If motors with brake have been stored or non-operational for longer than 9 months,
check their function before taking them into operation.
4.2.2
Measuring the insulation resistance
The insulation resistance (see following figure) varies greatly depending on the tem-
perature.
