For motors working in ambient temperatures
between -20ºC and +60ºC, a derating factor of 0.8
must be applied to the values indicated in the Table
8-9 to Table 8-15.
8.2.5. QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF GREASE
The relubrication can only be made with compatible
grease and in the amount indicated on the motor
nameplate as lacking of grease or excessive
grease affects the bearings.
Excessive grease causes overheating due to high
resistance caused by rotating parts resulting in
damage to grease properties.
Additionally, excess of grease may cause leakage
with the grease penetrating into the motor winding.
ATTENTION
Use only the type and quantity of
grease
indicated
on
the
motor
nameplate.
8.2.6. COMPATIBILITY
The incompatibility of different types of grease can
create occasional problems. When the properties
of the mixture remain within the individual property
range of the greases, we can say the greases are
compatible.
To avoid any possible incompatibility grease
problem,
we
recommend
performing
an
appropriate lubrication which can be summarized
as follows: after removing the old grease and
carring out a complete cleanliness of the grease
cavity, new grease must be pumped in. When this
procedure is not allowed, pump in new grease by
pressure. This must be repeated until new grease
is drained out through the grease relief.
