4.4 Noise emission
Excessive sound pressure levels can lead to hearing impairment or hearing loss.
● When assessing the noise level of the system, make due allowance for the noise emissions
from the machine.
● If necessary, take suitable noise protection measures for personnel.
4.5 Voltage and frequency fluctuations during line operation

Permissible fluctuations that go beyond this are stamped on the rating plate.
Preparations for use
4.4 Noise emission
SIMOTICS HV C 1NA14544WA600AG0-Z
22 Operating Instructions 06/2018
Under operating conditions a machine may sometimes have to be operated outside the limits
of range A.
● Exceeding the permissible tolerances for voltage and frequency can lead to an
impermissibly high temperature rise of the winding. This can result in long-term damage to
the machine.
● Limit exceptions of this sort with regard to the values that arise, how often, and for how long
they occur.
● Where possible and within a reasonable time take corrective actions such as reducing the
power. In this way you can avoid that the service life of the machine is reduced as a result
of thermal aging.
4.6 Phase synchronization during supply system switching
Damage to the machine may be caused when switching to another supply system with different
phasing.
● The phasing must be synchronized during switching. Use appropriate means to
synchronize the phasing.
4.7 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.
4.8 Torsional loading of the drive train due to faults in the electrical supply
In the event of faults in the electrical connection, such as line switching operations with a
residual field or short circuit at the terminals, excessive air gap torques can occur. These
excessive air gap torques can lead to additional mechanical torsional loads on the shaft
assembly.
If the configuration does not correctly recognize the mechanical torsional loadings of the shaft
assembly, this can lead to serious damage to the machine. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
● When planning the system, make due allowance for the maximum air gap torques that can
occur. This data can be found in the "Electrical data".
The system planner is responsible for the entire drive train.

4.9 Switching high-voltage motors
If vacuum circuit breakers and vacuum contactors are used, then what are known as multiple
restrikes can occur when the machine is switched off. This depends on various factors, such
as:
● Arc-extinguishing principle of the switch
● Machine size
● Length of the power supply cable
● System capacitance, etc.
A surge suppressor to ground is installed in the switchgear between the circuit breaker and
the cable termination for each of the three conductors. The level of protection for the machine
windings is sufficient when the limiter is correctly selected (machine rated voltage / response
voltage).
Example
This current limit corresponds to the following upper power limits, depending on the relationship
between the starting current IA and rated current IN and on the voltage dip (up to approximately
20%) while the machine is starting up:

Damage to mounted parts and components as a result of high temperatures
The motor components get very hot during operation. High temperatures can damage parts
mounted by customers, such as cables manufactured out of materials that are not heat
resistant.
● Temperature-sensitive parts must not come in contact with or be attached to components
mounted on the machine.
● Only use heat-resistant mounting parts. The connecting cables and cable entries must be
suitable for the particular application.
5.1.2 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:

5.1.3 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.

Assembly
5.1 Preparations for installation
SIMOTICS HV C 1NA14544WA600AG0-Z
36 Operating Instructions 06/2018
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.
Measuring the polarization index
1. To determine the polarization index, measure the insulation resistances after one minute
and ten minutes.
2. Express the measured values as a ratio:
PI =
R
insul 10 min /
R
insul 1 min
Many measuring devices display these values automatically following the measurement.
For insulation resistances > 5000 MΩ, the measurement of the PI is no longer meaningful and
consequently not included in the assessment.

≥ 2 Insulation in good condition
< 2 Dependent on the complete diagnosis of the insulation
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 99).
● If the measured value is close to the critical value, you must subsequently check the
insulation resistance at shorter intervals.

To maintain the balancing quality, you have the following options:
● If the output 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 output element.
Alternatively, ensure that the weights are compensated to achieve the appropriate 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 for all 2-pole machines and 4-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.
The number of poles of the machine is specified on the rating plate (in the designation of
the motor type).

5.3 Installing the machine
5.3.1 Safety instructions for installation
Injury and material damage caused by inappropriate fastening material
If screws of an incorrect property class have been selected or if they have been fastened to
an incorrect tightening torque, they may break or become loose. This will cause the machine
to move, which could damage the bearings. The rotor could smash into the machine enclosure
and machine parts could be flung out of place. This can result in death, serious injury or material
damage.
● Comply with the required property classes for screwed connections.
● Tighten the screwed connections to the specified tightening torques.
Injury and material damage caused by incorrect machine alignment
If the machine has not been properly aligned, this will mean the fastening parts are subjected
to stress/distortion. Screws may become loose or break, the machine will move, machine parts
could be flung out of place. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
● Carefully align the machine to the driven machine.
Material damage caused by improper handling
Mounting parts such as temperature sensors or speed sensors are attached to the machine
and could be ripped off or destroyed as a result of improper handling. This could lead to
machine malfunctions, extending even to total loss of the machine.
● Where necessary, use suitable steps when performing installation work on the machine.
● Do not stand on cables or attachments during installation. Do not use attachments as steps.
5.3.2 Selecting bolts
● Use fixing bolts with the appropriate property class to ensure that the machine is securely
fastened and torque can be adequately transmitted.
● 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 line system transfer operations
in phase opposition, etc. Values for the foundation forces can be found in the "Technical
Data and Drawings" section.

7.2 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 35)
7.3 Greasing the roller bearings prior to commissioning
●Regrease the roller bearings prior to commissioning if the machine has been out of
operation for more than a year. The shaft must rotate so that the new grease can be
distributed across the bearings.
●Regrease the roller bearings prior to commissioning in the following circumstances:
– When the machine has been in storage in favorable conditions, e.g. in dry rooms that
are free of dust and vibrations. This applies to the period between delivery and
commissioning, or longer periods of stoppage.
– If the machine has been in storage in unfavorable conditions for more than two years.
Note
Pay attention to the instructions on the lubricant plate.
● If the machine is equipped with grease removal valves, after relubricating, remove the
grease used by completely withdrawing the valve mounted at the bearing several times.
The machine must be operational while doing this.
● If the machine is equipped with grease collection chambers, unscrew the grease collection
chambers after the interval specified on the plate with the motor stationary and remove the
spent bearing grease. If this is not done, the grease will clog and the bearings will overheat.
● Continually check the bearing temperature rise. When using the specified grease quality,
for a maximum room temperature of 40 °C, the maximum bearing temperature rise is 80 K.

Avoiding mechanical damage to bearings
Regularly inspect all machines for any mechanical damage. Especially observe that the
bearing replacement intervals and relubrication intervals, respectively grease change intervals
or oil change intervals specified by the machine manufacturer are maintained.
Replace the bearings once they have reached their nominal service life or verify that they are
mechanically in good working order as part of an inspection.
● Where bearings are sealed for life, there is a guarantee that the rated service life is achieved
only well after expiry of the service life of the grease in the bearing.
● The theoretical nominal service life of the bearings can be taken from the data sheet of the
machine if this was specified – or was specifically defined for mechanical design reasons
for a particular application.
● Where machines are subject to externally applied forces (e. g. the force on a drive belt or
axial forces arising from the driven machine), at the full loadings listed on the technical
specification the rated service life of the bearings is at least 20,000 hours.
● For all other machines, the rated service life of the bearings is at least 40,000 hours.
● For bearings with external oil supply, monitor the lubrication system to ensure that it is
operating correctly.
7.4 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.
NOTICE
Avoiding mechanical damage to the cylindrical roller bearing
Under all circumstances maintain the minimum load on cylindrical roller bearings of 50%
corresponding to what is specified in the catalog.
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
frame, foundation, ...
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.
7.5 Overvoltages when switching high-voltage motors
When commissioning high-voltage motors or switchgear for high voltage motors from 3 kV and
above, surge voltages can occur while starting. This can damage the machine.

● Never touch machine parts during operation.
● Allow the machine to cool down before starting work.
● Check the temperature of parts before touching them. If required, wear suitable protective
equipment.
Damage caused by condensation
Humidity in the air can condense for intermittent duty or load fluctuations. Condensate can
collect. Moisture can have a negative impact on the winding insulation or result in damage,
such as corrosion.
● Ensure that any condensation can freely flow away.
NOTICE
Risk of corrosion due to condensate
Humid air can condense inside the machine during operation as a result of intermittent duty
or load fluctuations. Condensate can collect inside the motor. Damage such as rust can result.
1. Depending on the environmental requirements and operating conditions, remove the
screw plugs with retaining washers to drain the water.
2. Then refit the screw plugs and retaining washers. If the machine is equipped with drainage
plugs, the water can drain away automatically.

8.3 Regreasing roller bearings
Refer to the regreasing instructions for the roller bearings on the lubricant plate.
8.4 Switching off the water-cooling system
Do not immediately switch off the water-cooling system after switching off the machine. First
wait for the machine to cool down. This will prevent the accumulation of residual heat.
8.5 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
8.6 Stoppages
The stoppage is a shutdown for a period of time, during which the machine is stopped but
remains at the location of use.
Under normal ambient conditions, e. g. the stopped machine is not exposed to any vibration,
no increased level of corrosion, etc. in general, the following measures are necessary during
stoppages.

8.6.1 Draining the cooling water
If you take the machine out of service, drain the cooling water by removing the cooling water
drain plug.
1. Switch off the cooling water supply.
2. Disconnect the cooling water supply from the motor.
3. If necessary, lift the motor to access the cooling water drain plug.
4. For IM B3, open the cooling water drain plug at the lower side of the motor - or opposite to
the terminal box duct.
5. Drain the cooling water into a suitable container or tank.
6. Completely drain the water from the cooling system. Doing this avoids damage due to
corrosion and frost.
7. Blow the cooling system dry using compressed air.
8. Retighten the drain plug.
9. Close and seal the cooling water intake and discharge connections.
Frost and corrosion protection
If you cannot drain the cooling system because standby capability is required at short notice,
then protect the cooling circuit against frost and corrosion damage:
● Mix suitable additives with the cooling water.
NOTICE
Impairment of the heat transport
Additives such as anti-freeze and corrosive inhibitor can impair the heat transport.
● Operate the motor only with the contractually agreed water quality.
● Continue to operate the cooling water circuit. This avoids deposits from forming.
● If anti-condensation heating is available, keep this switched on. This avoids condensation
and condensate forming inside the machine.
8.6.2 Avoidance of damage to roller bearings during stoppages
Extended stoppages at the identical or almost identical resting position of the rotor in the roller
bearings can result in damage, such as brinelling or corrosion.
● During stoppages, regularly start up the machine for a brief period once a month. As a
minimum, turn the rotor several times.
If you have uncoupled the machine from the driven machine and secured the rotor with a
rotor shipping brace, then remove this before turning the rotor over or starting up the
machine.
Make sure that the resting position of the rotor after the rotor has been turned over is
different from its previous position. Use the fitted key or the coupling halves as reference
markers.
● During recommissioning, refer to the information in Chapter "Commissioning".

NOTICE
Diminished lubrication properties by mixing greases
The lubrication properties will be impaired if you mix different greases. This can result in
material damage.
● Avoid mixing greases. Only the manufacturer can provide a guarantee for the miscibility
of particular greases.
Lubrication data
Regreasing data are stated on the lubricant plate of the machine:
● Regreasing intervals in operating hours
● Regreasing amount in grams
● Grease type
Regrease the roller bearing at the latest every 12 months irrespective of the actual number of
operating hours.
NOTICE
Damage to roller bearings
The regreasing intervals for roller bearings are different from the servicing intervals for the
machine. The roller bearings may be damaged if the relubrication intervals are not adhered
to.
● Pay attention to the instructions on the lubricant plate.
Maintenance
9.2 Inspection and maintenance
SIMOTICS HV C 1NA14544WA600AG0-Z
Operating Instructions 06/2018 81
Grease replacement intervals
The grease replacement intervals in these operating instructions or the regreasing intervals
indicated on the plate apply to the following conditions:
● Normal load
● Operation at speeds in accordance with rating plate
● Low-vibration operation
● Neutral ambient air
● High-quality roller bearing greases
In the case of unfavorable operating conditions, reduce the relubrication intervals after prior
consultation with the manufacturer.
Regreasing roller bearings
Pay attention to the instructions on the lubricant plate.
1. Rotate the shaft when regreasing, so that the new grease can be distributed throughout
the bearing.
Motors that are operated with converters: Regrease the bearings at a low to medium speed
(nmin = 250 rpm, nmax = 3600 rpm) to ensure an even distribution of grease.
WARNING
Rotating components
The shaft must rotate to allow the grease to be distributed. This can result in death, serious
injury or material damage.
● When regreasing, pay attention to all rotating components.
2. Clean the grease nipple before regreasing. Gradually press in an appropriate type and
amount of grease, as stamped on the lubricant plate and specified in these operating
instructions.
The roller bearing temperature rises sharply at first, then drops to the normal value again
when the excess grease is displaced out of the bearing.
3. The used grease collects outside each bearing in a spent grease chamber.
Lubricating roller bearings prior to commissioning
When properly stored prior to commissioning for a longer period of time, normally the grease
in the bearings does not deteriorate within two years. Please note the information regarding
long-term storage.
When commissioning, the bearings must be relubricated with twice the amount of lubricating
grease. When doing this, the shaft must rotate so that the grease is replaced in the bearings.
9.2.8 Removing spent grease
If the specifications on the lubricant plate are observed, the spent grease chamber will provide
capacity for a calculated service life of at least 40 000 operating hours, approx. five years.
When the spent grease chamber is full, the spent grease must be removed prior to
Maintenance
9.2 Inspection and maintenance
SIMOTICS HV C 1NA14544WA600AG0-Z
82 Operating Instructions 06/2018
relubrication. This is indicated by the fact that during relubrication, oil or grease escapes at the
bearing cover.
● To remove the spent grease, loosen the outer bearing cap.
NOTICE
Removing spent grease
If the spent grease is not removed, then the roller bearings become too hot and can seize
up as the grease distribution mechanism is disturbed.
WARNING
Working on the locating bearing
If the motor 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 reduce the load on the rotor when carrying out work with the machine in a
vertical position.
9.2.9 Maintaining terminal boxes
Requirement
The machine is de-energized.
Checking the terminal box
● Terminal boxes must be regularly checked for tightness, undamaged insulation, and tight
terminal connections.
