3.1 Area of application
1MB155 / 1MB555 SH 71 ... 355
20 Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A
Use in hazardous areas
Explosion-proof electrical machines correspond to standards of the IEC/EN 60034 and
IEC/EN 60079 series. Only operate the machine in hazardous areas, strictly complying with
the specifications of the responsible supervisory authority. The relevant supervisory authority
is responsible for determining the hazard level of each area and classifying the zones. The
type of protection as well as special regulations are stamped on the rating plate or in the test
certificate. If the certificate number is supplemented by an X, to safely operate the machine
observe the special notes in the operating instructions or if available in the EC or EU type-
examination certificate or in the IECEx Certificate of Conformity. Operation with a converter
must be certified. It is essential that you observe the separate manufacturer's information
and instructions.
Explosion hazard from hybrid mixtures
Hybrid mixtures are mixtures of flammable dusts with explosive gas/air atmospheres which
can together create a dangerous explosive atmosphere if they occur at the same time.
Changes can arise in the safety characteristics here, such as a change in the zonal
classification, increase in the explosion pressure, reduction in the minimum ignition energy
and a reduction in the maximum temperatures to be observed.
An explosion can result. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● For this reason, the relative characteristics must be considered both for gas (zones 0, 1
and 2) and for dust (zones 20, 21 and 22) where hybrid mixtures arise. It is necessary for
a competent assessor to determine in the individual case whether the parameters
determining ignition are unfavorably affected in a particular hybrid mixture.
● Motors with dual plates for G (“Gas”) and D (“Dust”) may only be used where these two
occur after prior examination of the properties of the hybrid mixtures by the user.

3.3.2 Cooling and ventilation
The machines of this series are three-phase induction machines with a closed primary
(internal) cooling circuit and an open secondary cooling circuit (surface cooling). The surface
cooling varies depending on the version.
3.3.2.1 Machines with a fan
Self-ventilation (standard): Cooling method IC 411 according to EN / IEC 60034-6
Located at the ND end of the stator housing is an air intake cowl that guides the external air
on its way to the motor. The external air is drawn in through openings in the air intake cowl
and flows axially across the outer cooling ribs of the motor frame. The fan wheel for the
external flow of cooling air is attached to the machine shaft.
The fan wheels are bidirectional.
Check the cooling effect below rated speed in the case of frequent switching or braking – or
if the speed is controlled continually below the rated speed.
Forced ventilation (optional): Type of cooling IC 416 in accordance with EN / IEC 60034-6
Cooling that does not depend on the speed is achieved by means of a unit that is
independent of the motor operating state (forced ventilation). This unit is closed to the
outside by a fan cover. It has its own main drive with fan impeller which creates the cooling
air flow required for cooling the motor.
3.3.3 Bearings
In order to support the machine shaft and maintain its position in the non-moving part of the
machine, only 2 rolling bearings are used. One rolling bearing performs the function of a
location bearing that transfers axial and radial forces from the rotating machine shaft to the
non-moving part of the machine. The second rolling bearing is implemented as floating and
support bearing in order to allow thermal expansion inside the machine and transfer radial
forces.
The nominal (calculated) useful life of the bearings according to ISO 281 is at least 20,000
hours with utilization of the permissible radial/axial forces. However, the achievable useful
life of the bearings can be significantly longer in the case of lower forces (e.g. operation with
self-aligning couplings).
Rolling bearings with permanent lubrication are maintenance-free.
The machine is equipped with grease-lubricated rolling bearings.
● In the standard version, the bearings of machines up to shaft height 250 are permanently
lubricated.
● The bearings of machines from shaft height 280 and above are equipped with a
relubrication system.

4.5.1 Storage
Storing outdoors
NOTICE
Damage to the motor
Damage can occur if incorrectly stored.
Take all precautions to protect the motor under extreme climatic conditions, e.g. salt-laden
and/or dusty, moist/humid atmospheres.
Choose a dry storage location which is safe from flooding and free from vibration. Repair any
damage to the packaging before putting the equipment into storage if this is necessary to
ensure proper storage conditions. In order to ensure protection against ground moisture,
locate machines, equipment and crates on pallets, wooden beams or foundations. Prevent
equipment from sinking into the ground. Do not impede air circulation under the stored items.
Covers or tarpaulins used to protect the equipment against the weather must not come into
contact with the surfaces of the equipment. Use wooden spacer elements to ensure that air
can circulate freely around the equipment.
Storing indoors
The storage rooms must provide protection against extreme weather conditions. They must
be dry, free from dust, frost and vibration and well ventilated.
Bare metal surfaces
For transport, the bare surfaces (shaft ends, flange surfaces, centering edges) should be
coated with an anti-corrosion agent which will last for a limited amount of time (<6 months).
Apply suitable anti-corrosion measures for longer storage times.
The materials used are specially designed for the temperature range required by the
customer. The relevant temperature limits are specified on the rating plate.
WARNING
Risk of explosion due to damaged sealing materials
Storing the machine at temperatures that do not fall within the specified limits can damage
the material of the seals and cause them to fail. As a result, a potentially explosive gaseous
atmosphere can enter the machine and be ignited during commissioning. Explosions can
occur. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
• Do not store the machine in conditions that lie outside the specified temperature limits.

For machines that have a special design regarding the ambient temperature in the operating
state or the installation altitude, other conditions could apply regarding the storage
temperature. In this case, refer to the machine rating plate for data on the ambient
temperature and installation altitude.
Storage time
Turn the shaft once every year to avoid bearing brinelling. Prolonged storage periods reduce
the useful life of the bearing grease (aging).
Open bearings
● For open bearings, e.g. 1Z, check the status of the grease when stored for longer than 12
months.
● Replace the grease if it is identified that the grease has lost its lubricating properties or is
polluted. The consistency of the grease will change if condensation is allowed to enter.
Closed bearings
● For closed bearings, replace the DE and NDE bearings after a storage time of 48 months.
NOTICE
Storage
The motor can be damaged if you use it or store it unprotected outdoors.
• Protect the motor against intensive solar radiation, rain, snow, ice and dust. Use a
superstructure or additional cover, for example.
• If required, contact the service center, or technically coordinate outdoors use.

4.5.2 Securing the rotor
Depending on the version, the machine is fitted with a rotor shipping brace. This protects the
bearings against damage due to shock and vibration during transport or storage.
NOTICE
Motor damage due to vibrations
Not using the rotor shipping brace can cause damage to the machine if it is jolted during
transport or storage. Material damage can result.
• If the machine is fitted with a rotor shipping brace, this should always be used when
transporting the machine. The rotor shipping brace must be attached during the
transport.
• Protect the motor against strong radial shocks and vibration when storing, as the rotor
shipping brace cannot completely absorb these forces.
• Do not remove the rotor shipping brace until you are ready to push on the output
element.
• If the customer already has mounted parts, such as a coupling or belt pulley, the
bearings can be damaged during transport. In this case, make sure that the customer
uses a rotor shipping brace.
• For machines with a vertical type of construction:
– Do not remove the rotor shipping brace until the machine is in a vertical position.
– If a machine has to be transported in a horizontal position, the rotor must be fixed in
position before the machine is turned onto its side. Vertical machines can be
supplied in the horizontal position from the manufacturing plant.

4.5.3 Commissioning after storage
4.5.3.1 Insulation resistance and polarization index
Measuring the insulation resistance and polarization index (PI) provides information on the
condition of the machine. It is therefore important to check the insulation resistance and the
polarization index at the following times:
● Before starting up a machine for the first time
● After an extended period in storage or downtime
● Within the scope of maintenance work
The following information is provided regarding the state of the winding insulation:
● Is the winding head insulation conductively contaminated?
● Has the winding insulation absorbed moisture?
As such, you can determine whether the machine needs commissioning or any necessary
measures such as cleaning and/or drying the winding:
● Can the machine be put into operation?
● Must the windings be cleaned or dried?
Detailed information on testing and the limit values can be found here:
"Testing the insulation resistance and polarization index" (Page 51)
4.5.3.2 Lubricating the rolling bearings
If you correctly store the machine for a longer period of time, it can be assumed that within a
period of two years, the grease in the bearings will not deteriorate.
● For motors with thermal class 155, for normal ambient temperatures, use a lithium-soap
rolling bearing grease with a melting point of at least 180° C.
● For machines with thermal class 180, and for certain special machines, use the special
grease specified on the machine lubricant plate.
4.5.3.3 Regreasing rolling bearings after storage periods of up to two years
● For machines with regreasing systems, briefly lubricate both bearings after
commissioning with the machine running as a precautionary measure.
● Grease type, grease quantity and relubrication intervals for the regreasing system are
stamped on the rating plate attached to the machine.
4.5.3.4 Releasing the rotor shipping brace before commissioning
If one is being used, release the rotor shipping brace before commissioning.

4.6 Ensure adequate cooling
WARNING
Overheating and failure of the motor
Death, severe injury or material damage can occur if you do not carefully observe the
following points.
• Do not obstruct ventilation.
• Prevent the air expelled by neighboring equipment from being immediately sucked in
again.
• For machines with a vertical type construction with air entry from above, prevent the
ingress of foreign bodies and water in the air entry openings (standard IEC / EN 60079-
0).
• If the shaft extension is facing upwards, liquid must be prevented from entering by
moving along the shaft.
WARNING
Damage caused by small parts falling in
Material damage and injury can occur if the fan is destroyed and therefore the motor
overheats.
• For types of construction with the shaft extension facing downwards, prevent small parts
from falling into the fan cover by providing suitable covers (standard IEC / EN 60079-0).
• Ensure that the cooling air flow is not reduced as a result of covers and that the
minimum air clearances are maintained.
For machines with external fans, install an interlock circuit that prevents the main machine
being switched on if the external fan is not operational.

1MB155 / 1MB555 SH 71 ... 355
Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A 41
4.7 Thermal protection
The machine is optionally equipped with PTC thermistors, Pt100, Pt1000 or bimetallic
sensors. Thermal machine protection by directly monitoring the winding temperature is
permissible if this is certified and test data specified on the rating plate. PTC thermistors for
direct temperature monitoring (sole protection) ensure explosion protection in conjunction
with function tested tripping devices in accordance with local regulations.
● Direct temperature monitoring for line (DOL) operation: You can operate the machine
without a circuit breaker. Evaluate the temperature sensors.
● Direct temperature monitoring for inverter operation: Evaluate the temperature sensors.
● If you have to perform a continuity test of the temperature sensors, do not apply a voltage
>2.5 V. If no test data is specified on the rating plate, this means that the winding
protection is only intended as an additional protection.
● For pole-changing machines, use a direct temperature monitoring sensor as stated on the
rating plate, e.g. PTC thermistor, for each speed level in addition to the separate,
mutually interlocked machine protection relays.
4.8 Interlock circuit for anti-condensation heating
If the anti-condensation heating is operated while the machine is running, this can increase
the temperatures inside the machine.
● Install an interlock circuit that switches off the anti-condensation heating once the main
machine is switched on.
● Only switch on the anti-condensation heating after the machine has been switched off.

4.9 Noise emission
Prevention of hearing damage
If the permissible sound pressure level is exceeded, hearing damage can occur when
operating three-phase motors at their rated power.
Observe the permissible sound pressure level in accordance with ISO 1680. The maximum
permissible sound pressure level is 70 dB (A).
4.10 Voltage and frequency fluctuations during line operation
Unless stated otherwise on the rating plate, the permissible voltage/frequency fluctuation is
corresponds to range B in IEC / EN 60034-1.

Material damage due to excessively high winding temperature rise
Do not exceed the winding temperature tolerances. Inadmissibly high winding temperatures
can damage the machine over the long term.
Keep within the permissible tolerance for voltage and frequency.
Every machine must be protected against an inadmissible temperature rise. Observe the
following notes:
● Protect every machine according to IEC/EN 60079–14 using a current-dependent,
delayed circuit breaker with phase failure protection according to IEC/EN 60947 or a
similar device in all phases.
● Set the protective device to the rated current (value is stamped on the rating plate).
● Protect the windings in a delta connection in such a way that the tripping unit or relay is
connected in series with the winding phases. When selecting and setting the tripping unit,
define the rated value of the phase current. The phase current is 0.58 times the rated
machine current. Any thermal machine protection via direct temperature monitoring to be
used in addition to the machine circuit breaker is specified on the rating plate if required.
4.11 Rotational speed limit values
Danger as a result of resonance within certain speed ranges
At over-critical speeds, machines encounter resonance within certain speed ranges. Such
vibrations can reach impermissibly high levels. This can result in death, serious injury or
material damage.
● The controller must ensure that those speed ranges are blocked when the converter is in
operation. Please note the data on the blocked speed ranges specified in the Electrical
Data.
● The blocked speed ranges must be run through rapidly.
Machine damage due to excessively high speeds
Excessive rotational speed can lead to serious damage to the machine. This can result in
death, serious injury or material damage.
● Avoid operation above the permissible speed by using the appropriate control function.
● Observe the speeds stamped on the rating plate and in the Electrical Data.

Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A 43
4.12 System-inherent frequencies
Excessively high vibration levels and system resonances can damage the machine set.
● Configure and match the system consisting of the foundation and machine set in such a
way that no system resonances can arise and result in the permissible vibration levels
being exceeded.
● The vibration values according to DIN ISO 10816-3 must not be exceeded.
4.13 Electromagnetic compatibility
Note
If the torque levels are very unequal (e.g. when a reciprocating compressor is being driven),
a non
-sinusoidal machine current will be induced whose harmonics can have an
impermissible effect
on the supply system and cause impermissible interference emissions
as a result.
Note
Converter
•
If operated with a frequency converter, the emitted interference varies in strength,
depending on the design of the converter (type, interference suppression measures,
manufacturer).
•
Avoid that the specified limit values stipulated for the drive system (consisting of the
motor and converter) are exceeded.
•
You must observe the EMC information from the manufacturer of the converter.
•
The most effective method of shielding is to conductively connect a shielded machine
supply cable to the metal terminal box of the machine (with a metal screw connection)
over a large surface area.
•
On machines with integrated sensors (e.g. PTC thermistors), disturbance voltages
caused by the converter may occur on the sensor cable.
When used in accordance with their intended purpose and operated on an electrical supply
system with characteristics according to EN 50160, the enclosed machines comply with the
requirements of the EC Directive concerning electromagnetic compatibility.
Immunity to interference
The machines fulfill the requirements of interference immunity in conformity with EN /
IEC 61000-6-2. If machines with integrated sensors (e.g. PTC thermistors) are used, the
operating company must ensure sufficient interference immunity by selecting a suitable
sensor signal lead (possibly with shielding, connected in the same way as the machine
feeder cable) and a suitable evaluation unit.
When operating the machines from a converter at speeds higher than the rated speed, then
the mechanical speed limits must be carefully observed (safe operating speed
EN / IEC 60034-1).

4.14.1 Parameterizing the converter
● If the design of the motor requires connection to a particular converter type, the rating
plate will contain corresponding additional information.
● Correctly parameterize the converter. Parameterizing data can be taken from the
machine rating plates.
You can find parameter data here:
– In the operating instructions for the converter.
– In the SIZER engineering tool
– In the SINAMICS Configuration Manuals.
– For explosion-protected machines, also in the declaration of compliance with the order
2.1.
● Do not exceed the specified maximum speed limit
n
max. You can either find this on the
rating plate
n
max or on the supplementary plate for converter operation as the highest
speed.
● Check that the machine is cooled sufficiently for commissioning purposes.
4.14.2 Converter input voltage
The insulation system of SIMOTICS machines always complies with the requirements of
stress category C (IVIC C = high stress). If voltage peaks higher than those specified
according to IVIC C can occur, then please contact your Siemens partner:
● For a line supply voltage (converter input voltage) up to max. 480 V, and when controlled
from a SINAMICS G/SINAMICS S converter with uncontrolled/controlled infeed: Comply
with the guidelines for configuring motor and converter.
● For line voltages (converter input voltages) higher than 480 V, motors, which are ordered
for converter operation, have an appropriate insulation system.
● Operation with a converter from another manufacturer: Comply with the permissible
voltage peaks according to IEC 60034-18-41 in accordance with stress category C,
dependent on the particular line voltage (converter input voltage) and the motor insulation
system.
NOTICE
Material damage caused by an excessively high supply voltage
The insulation system will be damaged if the supply voltage is too high for the insulation
system. This can completely destroy the machine.
• Comply with the peak voltages as laid down in the guidelines above.

4.14.3 Reducing bearing currents when operated with a converter
Taking the following actions will reduce the bearing currents:
● Ensure that the contacts are made over a large area. Solid copper cables are not suitable
for high-frequency grounding because of the skin effect.
Equipotential bonding conductors:
Use equipotential bonding conductors:
● between motor and driven machine
● between motor and converter
● between the terminal box and the RF grounding point at the motor enclosure.
Selecting and connecting the cable:
As far as possible, use symmetrically arranged, shielded connection cables. The cable
shielding, made up of as many strands as possible, must have good electrical conductivity.
Braided shields made of copper or aluminum are very suitable.
● The shield is connected at both ends, at the motor and converter.
● To ensure good discharging of high-frequency currents, provide contacting over a large
surface area:
– as contact established through 360° at the converter
– at the motor, for instance with EMC glands at the cable entries.
● If the cable shield is connected as described, then it ensures the specified equipotential
bonding between the motor enclosure and converter. A separate RF equipotential
bonding conductor is then not necessary.

● If the cable shield is not connected due to special secondary conditions, or not
adequately connected, then the specified equipotential bonding is not provided. In this
particular case, use a separate RF equipotential bonding conductor:
– Between the motor enclosure and protective ground rail of the converter.
– Between motor enclosure and driven machine
– Use braided flat copper straps or high-frequency cables with finely-stranded
conductors for the separate RF equipotential bonding cable.
– Ensure that the contacts are made over a large area.
Measures to reduce bearing currents
To specifically reduce bearing currents, you must consider the system as a whole, which
comprises the motor, converter, and driven machine. The following measures support you
when reducing bearing currents and help to avoid damage:
● In the overall system, set up a properly meshed grounding system with low impedance.
● Use the common-mode filter (damping cores) at the converter output. The Siemens sales
representative is responsible for selection and dimensioning.
● Limit the rise in voltage by using output filters. Output filters dampen the harmonic content
in the output voltage.
● The operating instructions for the converter are not part of this documentation. Refer to
the configuration information for the converter.
4.14.4 Insulated bearings when operated with a converter

5.1.2.2 Testing the insulation resistance and polarization index
WARNING
Hazardous voltage at the terminals
During and immediately after measuring the insulation resistance or the polarization index
(PI) of the stator winding, hazardous voltages may be present at some of the terminals.
Contact with these can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
• If any power cables are connected, check to make sure line supply voltage cannot be
delivered.
• Discharge the winding after measurement until the risk is eliminated, e.g. using the
following measures:
– Connect the terminals with the ground potential until the recharge voltage drops to a
non-hazardous level
– Attach the connection cable.
Measure the insulation resistance
1. Before you begin measuring the insulation resistance, please read the operating manual
for the insulation resistance meter you are going to use.
2. Short-circuit the ends of the temperature sensor cables before applying the test voltage. If
the test voltage is connected to only one temperature sensor terminal, the temperature
sensor will be destroyed.
3. Make sure that no power cables are connected.
4. Measure the winding temperature and the insulation resistance of the winding in relation
to the machine enclosure. The winding temperature should not exceed 40° C during the
measurement. Convert the measured insulation resistances in accordance with the
formula to the reference temperature of 40° C. This thereby ensures that the minimum
values specified can be compared.
5. Read out the insulation resistance one minute after applying the measuring voltage.

Halving/doubling of the insulation resistance with 10 K

Measuring/winding temperature in °C
In this case, doubling or halving the insulation resistance at a temperature change of 10 K is
used as the basis.
● The insulation resistance halves every time the temperature rises by 10 K.
● The resistance doubles every time the temperature falls by 10 K.
For a winding temperature of approx. 25° C, the minimum insulation resistances are 20 MΩ
(U ≤ 1000 V) or 300 MΩ (U > 1000 V). The values apply for the complete winding to ground.
Twice the minimum values apply to the measurement of individual assemblies.
● Dry, new windings have an insulation resistance of between 100 and 2000 MΩ, or
possibly even higher values. An insulation resistance value close to the minimum value
could be due to moisture and/or dirt accumulation. The size of the winding, the rated
voltage and other characteristics affect the insulation resistance and may need to be
taken into account when determining measures.
● Over its operating lifetime, the motor winding insulation resistance can drop due to
ambient and operational influences. Calculate the critical insulation resistance value
depending on the rated voltage by multiplying the rated voltage (kV) by the specific
critical resistance value. Convert the value for the current winding temperature at the time
of measurement, see above table.

NOTICE
Damage to insulation
If the critical insulation resistance is reached or undershot, this can damage the insulation
and cause voltage flashovers.
• Contact the service center (Page 145).
• If the measured value is close to the critical value, you must subsequently check the
insulation resistance at shorter intervals.

CAUTION
Risk of injury due to Incorrect installation or removal
If the required touch protection measures for drive output elements are not observed this
can result in physical injury and material damage.
• The general touch protection measures for drive output elements must be observed.
• Drive output elements may only be pushed on or pulled off with the correct equipment.
• The feather keys are only locked against falling out during shipping. If you commission a
machine without a drive output element, the feather keys must be secured to prevent
them from being thrown out.
The featherkey data on the shaft and transmission element must indicate the correct type of
balancing in each case and must be correctly mounted.
The balancing quality corresponds to vibration severity grade "A" for the complete machine;
vibration severity grade "B" is possible as an option, i.e. in order to ensure the desired
balancing quality, it must be ensured that the featherkey data on the hub and machine shaft
complement each other in the case of a shorter or longer output transmission element.
Align the offset at the coupling between electrical machines and the driven machines so that
the maximum permissible vibration values according to ISO 10816-3 are not exceeded.

up.
5.3.2 Measures for alignment and mounting
The following measures are required in order to compensate any radial offset at the coupling
and to horizontally adjust the electrical machine with respect to the driven load:
● Vertical positioning
For vertical mounting positions, avoid deforming the machines by placing shims under the
mounting feet. Keep the number of shims low; only use a few stacked shims.
● Horizontal positioning
To position the machine horizontally, shift it sideways on the foundation and ensure that
the axial position is maintained (angularity error).
● When positioning the motor, ensure that a uniform axial gap is maintained around the
coupling.
● Smooth running
Preconditions for smooth, vibration-free operation:
– Stable foundation design free of any shock or vibration.
– A precisely aligned coupling.
– A well-balanced drive output element (coupling, belt pulleys, fans, ...)
Maintain the maximum permissible vibration values in operation according to ISO 10816-
3.
Avoid inadmissible vibration caused by imbalance, for example (drive output element),
external vibration or any resonance over the complete speed range.
It may be necessary to completely balance the machine with the drive output element or
the system resonance frequency must be shifted.

5.4.2 Aligning the machine to the driven machine and mounting
5.4.2.1 Selecting bolts
● Unless specified otherwise, use fixing screws with at least strength class 8.8 to ISO 898-1
to ensure that the machine is securely mounted and to transmit the torque-generated
forces.
● When selecting the bolts and the design of the foundation, take into account the
maximum forces occurring in the case of a fault such as short circuit or system transfers
in phase opposition, etc.
Request the foundation force values from the Service Center if required.

5.4.2.2 Horizontal types of construction with mounting feet
1. Refer to any instructions for aligning the driven machine and those of the coupling
manufacturer.
2. Align the machines with coupling output to the driven machine in such a manner that the
center lines of the shafts are parallel with no offset. This ensures that no additional forces
affect their bearings during operation.
3. For the vertical positioning (x→0) place thin shims under the machine feet. The number of
shims should be kept as low as possible, i.e. stack as few as possible. This also prevents
the machine being subjected to any stress/distortion. If available, use the existing tapped
holes for the forcing-off bolts to somewhat raise the machine.
4. When positioning the machine, ensure that a uniform axial gap (y→0) is maintained
around the coupling.
5. Fix the machine to the foundation. The choice of fixing elements depends on the
foundation and is the plant operator's responsibility.
Note
Machine expansion
When aligning, make allowance for the thermal expansion of the machine when the
temperature increases.
5.4.2.3 Horizontal types of construction with flange
The standard flange is provided with a centering. The choice of fit for the mating flange on
the driven machine is the system manufacturer's or the plant operator's responsibility.
If the machine is not fitted with a standard flange, align the machine to suit the driven
machine.

1MB155 / 1MB555 SH 71 ... 355
60 Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A
Procedure
The machine axis must be horizontal when it is lifted and the flange must be parallel to the
mating flange, so as to avoid seizing and stressing. Otherwise damage to the centering will
result.
1. Grease the centering flange with assembly paste to make the process easier.
2. Screw three studs into tapped holes spaced about 120° apart around the driven machine
flange. The studs act as positioning aids.
3. Position the machine so that its axis is aligned with that of the driven machine, but not yet
quite touching. Advance the machine slowly towards the driven machine; advancing too
quickly risks damaging the centering.
4. If necessary, rotate the machine into the right position so that the clearance holes in the
flange are central to the tapped holes.
5. Move the machine fully up against the mating flange so that it is fully in contact.
6. Fix the machine using the flange fixing bolts, finishing by replacing the studs.
5.4.2.4 Vertical types of construction with flange
The standard flange is provided with a centering. The choice of fit for the mating flange on
the driven machine is the system manufacturer's or the plant operator's responsibility.
If the machine is not fitted with a standard flange, align the machine to suit the driven
machine.
Procedure
The machine axis must be vertical when it is lifted and the flange must be parallel to the
mating flange, so as to avoid seizing and stressing. Otherwise damage to the centering will
result.
1. Grease the centering flange with assembly paste to make the process easier.
2. Screw in two studs into tapped holes on opposite sides of the driven machine flange. The
studs act as positioning aids.
3. Lower the machine slowly toward the driven machine and into the centering, so that the
flanges do not quite touch. Lowering too quickly risks damaging the centering.
4. If necessary, rotate the machine into the right position so that the clearance holes in the
flange are central to the tapped holes.
5. Lower the machine completely onto the mating flange so that it is fully in contact; then
remove the studs.
6. Fix the machine using the flange fixing bolts.

5.4.2.5 Type of construction without flange
If the motor is not fitted with a flange, align the motor to suit the driven machine.
For types of construction without flange (e.g. IM B3), use suitable covers to ensure that no
small parts can fall down between the transmission element and the bearing shield on the
drive side.
5.4.3 Removing the rotor shipping brace
If a rotor shipping brace is attached to the machine, remove it at the last possible moment,
for example, when you are ready to push on the output or drive element.
Store the rotor locking device
Be sure to store the rotor locking device. It must be remounted for possible disassembly and
transport.
Details about the alignment accuracy can be found in the Section "Information about the
machine dimension drawing".
5.4.4 Recommended alignment accuracy
The alignment accuracy required depends essentially on the configuration of the overall
machine train. Observe the required alignment accuracy of the coupling manufacturer in all
cases when aligning the machine.

5.4.5 Mounting the output elements
Balance quality
The rotor is dynamically balanced. For shaft ends with feather keys, the balancing type is
specified using the following coding on the rating plate:
● "H" means balancing with a half feather key
● "F" means balancing with a whole feather key
● "N" means balancing without a featherkey.
Figure 5-1 Balancing type on the drive-end side
Pushing on the power output elements
● Requirements:
– The coupling and/or the output element must be appropriately dimensioned for the
operating case at hand.
– Comply with the coupling manufacturer's instructions.
– Make sure that the balancing type of the transmission element correctly matches the
type of balance of the rotor.
– Use only ready drilled and balanced transmission elements. Check the hole diameters
and the balancing status before pulling them on. Thoroughly clean the shaft extension.
● Pulling on:
– Warm up the drive output elements to expand them before pulling them on. Select the
temperature difference for the heating process to suit the coupling diameter, fit and
material. See the coupling manufacturer's instructions.
– Power output elements may only be pushed on or pulled off with the correct
equipment. The transmission element must be pulled on in one continuous operation
via the front thread holes in the shaft or pushed on by hand.
– Do not use a hammer, as this will damage the bearings.

Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A 63
Shaft extensions with feather key
To maintain the balancing quality, you have the following options:
● If the transmission element is shorter than the feather key with balancing type "H", then
you must machine off the section of feather key protruding from the shaft contour and
transmission element in order to maintain the balance quality.
● If the transmission element is drawn up on to the shoulder of the shaft, you must ensure
that the part of the coupling groove where the feather key is not inserted is taken into
consideration when balancing the coupling.
The following applies to all four-pole machines with a frequency ≥ 60 Hz:
● The feather key must be shortened if the coupling hub is shorter than the feather key.
● The center of gravity of the coupling half should be within the length of the shaft end.
● The coupling used must be prepared for system balancing.
Danger as a result of a feather key being flung out
Rotating parts are dangerous. The feather keys are only locked against falling out during
shipping. If a machine with 2 shaft extensions does not have an output element on one shaft
extension, the feather key can be flung out during operation. Rotating parts can result in
death, serious injury or material damage.
● Do not operate the machine unless the transmission elements have been pulled on.
● On shaft extensions without drive output element, take suitable measures to ensure that
the feather key cannot be flung out. For balancing type "H", shorten the feather key by
about half.
5.4.6 Axial and radial forces
You can obtain the permissible values for axial and radial forces by contacting the Service
Center or referring to the machine catalog.
WARNING
Damage to bearings or the shaft
Large output masses and their centers of gravity outside the shaft extensions can lead to
resonance in operation. This can result in damage to the bearings and shaft. In an
explosive atmosphere, there is a risk of explosion. Death, serious injury, or material
damage can result.
• Ensure that the permissible loads for the forces on the shaft extension are adhered to in
accordance with the catalog data or configuration data.

6.5.1 Cable ends with wire end sleeves
1. Preferably use end sleeves instead of soldering cable ends.
2. Before connecting, attach the end sleeves so as to form a technically correct, current-
carrying crimped joint at the end of the conductor.
WARNING
Risk of explosion due to excessive temperature rise
If the end of the conductor is not correctly enclosed by the end sleeve, but is trapped by
it, this can lead to overheating. The temperature class of the machine can be exceeded.
This can trigger ignition of an explosive mixture. This can result in death, serious injury
or material damage.
• Insert only one conductor end into each end sleeve. Attach the end sleeve correctly.
6.5.2 Connecting aluminum conductors
If you are using aluminum conductors, then comply with the following:
● Use only cable lugs that are suitable for connecting aluminum conductors.
● Immediately before inserting the aluminum conductor, remove the oxide layer from the
contact areas on the conductor and/or the mating piece. Do this using a brush or file.
● Then grease the contact areas immediately using neutral Vaseline. This prevents a new
oxide layer from forming.
NOTICE
Aluminum flow due to contact pressure
Aluminum flows following installation due to the contact pressure. The connection using
clamping nuts can loosen as a result. The contact resistance increases, obstructing the
current from being conducted. This can result in fire and material damage to the
machine – or even in total failure, as well as material damage to the plant or system due
to machine failure.
• Retighten the clamping nuts after approximately 24 hours and then again after
approximately four weeks. Make sure that the terminals are de-energized before you
tighten the nuts.

assignment.
7.2.1 Insulation resistance and polarization index
Measuring the insulation resistance and polarization index (PI) provides information on the
condition of the machine. It is therefore important to check the insulation resistance and the
polarization index at the following times:
● Before starting up a machine for the first time
● After an extended period in storage or downtime
● Within the scope of maintenance work
The following information is provided regarding the state of the winding insulation:
● Is the winding head insulation conductively contaminated?
● Has the winding insulation absorbed moisture?
As such, you can determine whether the machine needs commissioning or any necessary
measures such as cleaning and/or drying the winding:
● Can the machine be put into operation?
● Must the windings be cleaned or dried?
Detailed information on testing and the limit values can be found here:

7.2.2 Testing the insulation resistance and polarization index
WARNING
Hazardous voltage at the terminals
During and immediately after measuring the insulation resistance or the polarization index
(PI) of the stator winding, hazardous voltages may be present at some of the terminals.
Contact with these can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
• If any power cables are connected, check to make sure line supply voltage cannot be
delivered.
• Discharge the winding after measurement until the risk is eliminated, e.g. using the
following measures:
– Connect the terminals with the ground potential until the recharge voltage drops to a
non-hazardous level
– Attach the connection cable.
Measure the insulation resistance
1. Before you begin measuring the insulation resistance, please read the operating manual
for the insulation resistance meter you are going to use.
2. Short-circuit the ends of the temperature sensor cables before applying the test voltage. If
the test voltage is connected to only one temperature sensor terminal, the temperature
sensor will be destroyed.
3. Make sure that no power cables are connected.
4. Measure the winding temperature and the insulation resistance of the winding in relation
to the machine enclosure. The winding temperature should not exceed 40° C during the
measurement. Convert the measured insulation resistances in accordance with the
formula to the reference temperature of 40° C. This thereby ensures that the minimum
values specified can be compared.
5. Read out the insulation resistance one minute after applying the measuring voltage.

Measuring/winding temperature in °C
In this case, doubling or halving the insulation resistance at a temperature change of 10 K is
used as the basis.
● The insulation resistance halves every time the temperature rises by 10 K.
● The resistance doubles every time the temperature falls by 10 K.
For a winding temperature of approx. 25° C, the minimum insulation resistances are 20 MΩ
(U ≤ 1000 V) or 300 MΩ (U > 1000 V). The values apply for the complete winding to ground.
Twice the minimum values apply to the measurement of individual assemblies.
● Dry, new windings have an insulation resistance of between 100 and 2000 MΩ, or
possibly even higher values. An insulation resistance value close to the minimum value
could be due to moisture and/or dirt accumulation. The size of the winding, the rated
voltage and other characteristics affect the insulation resistance and may need to be
taken into account when determining measures.
● Over its operating lifetime, the motor winding insulation resistance can drop due to
ambient and operational influences. Calculate the critical insulation resistance value
depending on the rated voltage by multiplying the rated voltage (kV) by the specific

1. To determine the polarization index, measure the insulation resistances after one minute
and ten minutes.
2. Express the measured values as a ratio:

Damage to insulation
If the critical insulation resistance is reached or undershot, this can damage the insulation
and cause voltage flashovers.
• Contact the service center (Page 145).
• If the measured value is close to the critical value, you must subsequently check the
insulation resistance at shorter intervals.

up of the machines:
● Start the machine without a load. To do this, close the circuit breaker and do not switch
the machine off prematurely. Switching the machine off again while it is starting up and
still running at slow speed should be kept to a bare minimum, for example for checking

the direction of rotation or for checking in general. Allow the machine to run to a standstill
before switching it back on again.
● Check mechanical operation for noise or vibration at the bearings or end shields.
● If the machine is not running smoothly or is emitting abnormal noises, switch it off, and
determine the cause of the fault as it runs down.
● If mechanical operation improves immediately after the machine is switched off, then the
cause is magnetic or electrical, e.g. voltage imbalance, magnetic imbalance. If
mechanical operation does not improve immediately after switching the machine off, then
the cause is mechanical, e.g. an imbalance in the electrical machines or in the driven
machine, inadequate alignment of the machine set, operation of the machine with the
system resonating (system = machine + base frame + foundations etc.).
● If the machine runs perfectly in terms of its mechanical operation, switch on any cooling
devices present and continue to monitor the machine for a while as it idles.
● If it runs perfectly, connect a load. Check that it runs smoothly.
Read off and document the values for voltage, current, and power.
Where possible, read off corresponding values for the driven machine and document
them as well.
● Monitor the bearing temperature, winding temperature, etc. until the system reaches a
steady state.
Document these, provided this is possible with existing measuring instruments.
NOTICE
Destruction of the machine
The machine can be destroyed if the vibration values are not strictly complied with.
• In operation, maintain vibration values in accordance with DIN ISO 10816-3.
● Start the machine without a load; to do this, close the motor starter protector and do not
switch the machine off prematurely.
● You should limit how often you switch the machine off while it is starting up and still
running at a slow speed, for checking the direction of rotation or the required dimensions,
for example.
● Allow machines to reach a standstill before switching them back on.

7.3.1 Test run
After installation or inspection, carry out a test run:
1. Start up the machine without a load. To do this, close the circuit breaker and do not
switch off prematurely. Check whether it is running smoothly.
Switching the machine off again while it is starting up and still running at slow speed
should be kept to a bare minimum, for example for checking the direction of rotation or for
checking in general.
Allow the machine to run down before switching it on again.
2. If the machine is running smoothly and evenly, switch on the cooling equipment. Continue
to observe the machine for a while in no-load operation.
3. If it runs perfectly, connect a load.
NOTICE
Thermal overload of motors connected directly to the line supply
In addition to the load torque, the ramp-up (accelerating) time is essentially influenced
by the moment of inertia to be accelerated. While ramping up when connected to the
line supply, the inrush (starting) current is a multiple of the rated current. This can result
in thermal overload. This can damage the motor.
As a consequence, when ramping up, observe the following:
• Monitor the ramp-up time and number of consecutive starts.
• Comply with the limit values and/or ramp-up conditions specified in the catalog or the
order documentation.
4. During the test run, check and document the following:
– Check whether it is running smoothly.
– Document the voltage, current and power values. As far as possible, document the
corresponding values of the driven machine.
– If this is possible using the available measuring equipment, check the bearing and
stator winding temperatures until they have reached steady-state values.
– Check the machine for noise or vibrations on the bearings or bearing shields as it
runs.

5. In case of uneven running or abnormal noise, switch off the machine. As the machine
runs down, identify the cause.
– If the mechanical operation improves immediately after the machine is switched off,
then the cause is magnetic or electrical.
– If the mechanical running does not improve immediately after switching the machine
off, then the cause is mechanical.
- Imbalance of the electrical machine or the driven machine
- The machine set has not been adequately aligned
- The machine is being operated at the system resonance point. System = motor, base

NOTICE
Serious damage to the machine
If the vibration values in operation are not maintained in accordance with DIN ISO
10816-3, then the machine can be mechanically destroyed.
• During operation, observe the vibration values in accordance with
DIN ISO 10816-3.

96 Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A
NOTICE
Risk of corrosion due to condensation
If the machine and/or ambient temperatures fluctuate, this can result in condensation inside
the machine.
• If the motor has anti-condensation heating, switch it on after the motor has been
switched off.
Switching on the machine with anti-condensation heating (optional)
CAUTION
Machine overheating
Minor injury or material damage can occur if you do not observe the following:
• If available, switch off the anti-condensation heating each time before switching on.
Explosion hazard from hybrid mixtures
Hybrid mixtures are mixtures of flammable dusts with explosive gas/air atmospheres which
can together create a dangerous explosive atmosphere if they occur at the same time.
Changes can arise in the safety characteristics here, such as a change in the zonal
classification, increase in the explosion pressure, reduction in the minimum ignition energy
and a reduction in the maximum temperatures to be observed.
An explosion can result. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● For this reason, the relative characteristics must be considered both for gas (zones 0, 1
and 2) and for dust (zones 20, 21 and 22) where hybrid mixtures arise. It is necessary for
a competent assessor to determine in the individual case whether the parameters
determining ignition are unfavorably affected in a particular hybrid mixture.
● Motors with dual plates for G (“Gas”) and D (“Dust”) may only be used where these two
occur after prior examination of the properties of the hybrid mixtures by the user.
Explosion hazard due to overheating of the machine caused by a layer of dust
Deposits of dust have a thermal insulation effect, which can lead to the machine overheating.
The maximum surface temperature of the machine cannot be adhered to. The dust can
ignite, resulting in an explosion. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● Dust the machine regularly.
● Do not allow dust layers thicker than 5 mm to build up on the machine surface.
● Do not switch the machine on until the dust has been removed.

8.1 Safety instructions for operation
1MB155 / 1MB555 SH 71 ... 355
Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A 97
Risk of explosion due to excessive bearing temperature
The surface temperature cannot be maintained within maximum permissible limits if the
bearing becomes too hot. The dust can ignite, resulting in an explosion. This can result in
death, serious injury or material damage.
● Monitor the bearing temperature.
● In addition to the current-dependent overload protection device located in the three
phases of the connecting cable, we recommend that you also monitor the temperature
rise in the machine using temperature sensors integrated in the stator winding.
8.1.1 Static charging when cleaning
Risk of explosion due to static charging
If you clean the motor, plastic components may become statically charged and ignite a
potentially explosive atmosphere. An explosion can occur. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
● When cleaning ensure that there is absolutely no explosive atmosphere present.
● Clean the plastic parts and components so that absolutely no static charging occurs
● Do not use compressed air for cleaning.
8.1.2 Safety note for ventilation
CAUTION
Risk of injury when touching the fan
There is a risk of injury at machines equipped with a fan cover (e.g. on machines in the
textile industry), as the fan is not completely touch protected.
• Do not touch the rotating fan.
• Do not put your fingers into the larger air discharge openings.
• Prevent manual intervention by using suitable measures, e.g. appropriate housings or a
protective grating.

WARNING
Risk of burning
Operating the machine without external fan results in overheating. This may result in death,
personal injury and material damage.
• Never commission the machine without an external fan.
8.1.3 Bridging insulated bearings
Explosion hazard if the bridging is removed from the insulated bearing
Removing the factory-fitted bridging of the insulated bearing leads to potential differences
between the rotor and the grounded motor. This can cause the generation of sparks, which
especially in an explosive atmosphere can ignite surrounding dust or combustible gases.
Explosions can occur. There is also a risk of an electric shock. Death, serious injury, or
material damage will result.
● Do not open the bridging of the bearing insulation during operation.
8.1.4 Switching on with the anti-condensation heating active
Excessively high machine temperature when heating is switched on
If the anti-condensation heating is operated while the machine is running, this can increase
the temperatures inside the machine. Material damage can result.
● Make sure that the anti-condensation heating is switched off before the machine is
switched on.
● Only operate anti-condensation heating when the machine is switched off.
WARNING
Explosion hazard
If the anti-condensation heating is switched on during operation, the temperature class or
the maximum surface temperature of the machine can be exceeded.
In an explosive atmosphere, there is a risk of an explosion. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
Only switch the anti-condensation heating on after the motor has been switched off.

NOTICE
Thermal overload of motors connected directly to the line supply
In addition to the load torque, the ramp-up (accelerating) time is essentially influenced
by the moment of inertia to be accelerated. While ramping up when connected to the
line supply, the inrush (starting) current is a multiple of the rated current. This can result
in thermal overload. This can damage the motor.
As a consequence, when ramping up, observe the following:
• Monitor the ramp-up time and number of consecutive starts.
• Comply with the limit values and/or ramp-up conditions specified in the catalog or the
order documentation.
3. If this is possible using the available measuring equipment, check the bearing and stator
winding temperatures.
8.3 Switching off the external fan
Do not immediately switch off the separately-driven (external) fan after switching off the
machine. First wait for the machine to cool down. This will prevent the accumulation of
residual heat.
8.4 Switching on again after an emergency switching-off
● Check the machine before recommissioning the driven machine after an Emergency Off.
● Eliminate all the causes that have led to the emergency off
8.5 Stoppages
The stoppage is a shutdown for a period of time, during which the machine is stopped but

procedures.
• Carefully remove any dirt.
Note
Operating conditions
and characteristics can vary widely. For this reason, only general
intervals for inspection and maintenance measures can be specified here.
Risk of explosion due to an increased surface temperature
Components within the machine may be hotter than the maximum permissible surface
temperature of the enclosure. In an explosive atmosphere, dust can ignite and an explosion
occur. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● Do not open the machine in an explosive and dusty atmosphere when it is still at normal
operating temperature.
● Allow the machine to cool down before opening it.
● When disassembling, ensure that the parts necessary to seal the enclosure are not
damaged, for example seals, face/plane mating surfaces. Perform a new routine test for
the parts that have been repaired if these parts are crucial to ensure dust protection.
Explosion hazard due to overheating of the machine caused by a layer of dust
Deposits of dust have a thermal insulation effect, which can lead to the machine overheating.
The maximum surface temperature of the machine cannot be adhered to. The dust can

Risk of explosion due to excessive bearing temperature
The surface temperature cannot be maintained within maximum permissible limits if the
bearing becomes too hot. The dust can ignite, resulting in an explosion. This can result in
death, serious injury or material damage.
● Monitor the bearing temperature.
● In addition to the current-dependent overload protection device located in the three
phases of the connecting cable, we recommend that you also monitor the temperature
rise in the machine using temperature sensors integrated in the stator winding.
9.2.2 Static charging when cleaning
Risk of explosion due to static charging
If you clean the motor, plastic components may become statically charged and ignite a
potentially explosive atmosphere. An explosion can occur. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
● When cleaning ensure that there is absolutely no explosive atmosphere present.
● Clean the plastic parts and components so that absolutely no static charging occurs
● Do not use compressed air for cleaning.

NOTICE
Machine damage
When carrying out the inspection, if you detect any impermissible deviations from the
normal state, you must rectify them immediately. They may otherwise cause damage to the
machine.
9.2.6 Assessing the rolling bearings
To assess the rolling bearings, it is generally not necessary to dismantle the machines. The
motor only has to be dismantled if the bearings are to be replaced.
The state of a rolling bearing can be assessed by analyzing the bearing vibration. The
measured values provide an indication and can be assessed by specialists. In this case,
please contact the Service Center.
9.2.7 Mechanical explosion protection for rolling bearings
All machines marked in accordance with Directive 2014/34/EU ("Explosion Protection
Directive") must be regularly inspected for mechanical damage which could constitute a risk
of ignition in accordance with IEC/EN 60079-17 .
● Comply with the following intervals:
– Bearing replacement intervals
– Relubrication intervals
– Grease replacement intervals
– Oil change intervals
● Rolling bearing service life
– Replace the rolling bearings once the nominal service life is reached. Alternatively,
you can verify they are free of mechanical damage as part of an inspection.
– In the case of rolling bearings without a regreasing system, it is ensured that the
nominal service life will only be achieved clearly after achievement of the service life of
the grease in the bearings.
– The rolling bearing service life under full specified load is at least 20 000 hours for
machines subject to radial or axial forces.
– The nominal rolling bearing service life of machines which are not subject to any
forces is at least 40 000 hours.
● For rolling bearings with external oil supply, monitor that lubrication is maintained.

9.2.9.2 Explosion hazard due to increased surface temperature
WARNING
Explosion hazard due to increased surface temperature
Components within the motor may be hotter than the maximum permissible surface
temperature for the enclosure. In an explosive atmosphere, dust can ignite and an
explosion occur. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
• Do not open the motor in an explosive and dusty atmosphere when it is still at normal
operating temperature.
• Allow the machine to cool down before opening it.
9.2.9.3 Insulation resistance and polarization index
Measuring the insulation resistance and polarization index (PI) provides information on the
condition of the machine. It is therefore important to check the insulation resistance and the
polarization index at the following times:
● Before starting up a machine for the first time
● After an extended period in storage or downtime
● Within the scope of maintenance work
The following information is provided regarding the state of the winding insulation:
● Is the winding head insulation conductively contaminated?
● Has the winding insulation absorbed moisture?
As such, you can determine whether the machine needs commissioning or any necessary
measures such as cleaning and/or drying the winding:
● Can the machine be put into operation?
● Must the windings be cleaned or dried?
Detailed information on testing and the limit values can be found here:

Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A 115
9.2.9.4 Regreasing intervals and types of grease for operating rolling-contact bearings
Regreasing intervals
The regreasing intervals for rolling bearings in operating hours and the grease types are
stated on the machine's lubricant plate. Regardless of the actual number of operating hours
reached, regrease the motor at least once a year. The lubrication information can be found
on the lubricant plate.
Note
Observe the regreasing intervals for the rolling bearings
The regreasing intervals for rolling bearings are different from the service/inspection intervals
for the machine. Failure to regrease the rolling bearings at the specifi
ed intervals can result
in bearing damage.
Regreasing
The spent grease chamber is designed to accommodate the spent grease for a computed,
rated service life of 20000 operating hours.
● Clean the grease nipples before regreasing and then gradually press in an appropriate
type and amount of grease, as described on the lubricant plate. The shaft must rotate so
that the new grease can be distributed in the rolling bearing. The rolling bearing
temperature rises sharply at first, then drops to the normal value again after the excess
grease has been displaced out of the bearing.
– If the machine is fitted with grease collection chambers :
Unbolt the grease collection chambers at the intervals shown on the notice plate with
the motor stopped, and remove the used bearing grease. When doing this, you avoid
that the grease backs up and the bearings overheat.
WARNING
Rotor can fall out
If the machine is in a vertical position, the rotor can fall out while work is being
performed on the locating bearing. This can result in death, serious injury or material
damage.
Support or relieve the rotor when carrying out work with the machine in a vertical
position.

1MB155 / 1MB555 SH 71 ... 355
116 Operating Instructions, 12/2018, A5E41926185A
Grease types
For the standard operating range, a grease for temperatures down to -20 °C is normally used
for the initial greasing of rolling bearings. If the machine has been ordered for use in the
extended temperature range of below -20 °C, the permissible type of grease is indicated on
the lubricant plate.
Note
Grease quantity control
Only use the specified greases so that the grease quantity control operates perfectly. The
data on the motor lubricant plate is decisive.
Note
Carefully note that it is not permissible to mix different grease types.
9.2.9.5 Cleaning
Cleaning the grease ducts and spent grease chambers
The spent grease collects outside each bearing in the spent grease chamber of the outer
bearing cap. When replacing bearings, remove the spent grease.
Dismantle the bearing cartridges to replace the grease in the lubrication duct.
Cleaning the cooling air ducts
Regularly clean the cooling air ducts through which the ambient air flows.
The frequency of the cleaning intervals depends on the local degree of fouling.
Damage to the machine when cleaning with compressed air or water jets
● Do not direct compressed air or water jets in the direction of the shaft outlet or machine
openings.
● Avoid direct impact of compressed air and water jets on sealing elements of the machine.

mounting dimensions and functions; it is possible that this will involve a new series.
● If a replacement machine is supplied within the 3 year period, this does not mean that the
warranty restarts.
● Replacement machines delivered after the active production of the machine series are
also identified as spare motors on the rating plate.
● Spare parts are offered only for these spare motors on request; repair and replacement
are not possible.
● After a period of 3 years (after the delivery of the original machine), it is only possible to
repair these machines (depending on the availability of the spare parts required).
● For up to 5 years after the delivery of the original motor, spare parts will be available and
for a further 5 years, Siemens will provide information about spare parts and will supply
documents when required.

B.1 Tightening torques
B.1.1 Tightening torques for screw and bolt connections
Bolt locking devices
● Refit nuts or bolts that are mounted together with locking, resilient, and/or force-
distributing elements with identical, fully-functional elements when re-assembling. Always
renew keyed elements.
● When screwing together threads secured with a liquid adhesive, use a suitable medium
such as Loctite 243.
● Always use suitable securing devices or removable adhesives (e.g., Loctite 243) when
installing fixing bolts with a clamping length of less than 25 mm. The clamping length is
taken as the distance between the head of the bolt and the point at which the bolt is
screwed in.
Tightening torques
The bolted connections with metal contact surfaces, such as end shields, bearing cartridge
parts, terminal box parts bolted onto the stator frame, should be tightened to the following
torques, depending on the thread size:
