Motor characteristic
Storage measures
DC motor
If stored for more than two months:
Lift off the carbon brushes and remove them from their
holders to prevent oxidation at the contact points with the
slip rings
Before operation, reinstall the carbon brushes and check
that the brush holders run smoothly
Water-cooled motors
Do not allow the ambient temperature to fall below +5 °C
At temperatures below +5 °C, add an antifreeze to the
water in the cooling circuit
Separately supplied
components
If components are supplied separately (terminal boxes,
bearing plates, etc.), these parts must also be packed and
protected
If the manufacturer has his own operating instructions,
these must be followed
Do not allow the relative humidity in the original packaging
to exceed 50%
Machined surfaces
All machined surfaces (shaft ends, flanges, etc.) are supplied
ex works with a rust inhibitor.
This protective film should be reapplied at least every six
months or in case of removal or damage
Recommended rust inhibitor: Gunex 2000, Manufacturer:
Klever
Grease-lubricated
rolling bearings
The rolling bearings are factory lubricated. To avoid bearing
damage:
During the storage period, turn the rotor/armature by hand
every two months
Turn the rotor/armature at a speed of 30 rpm for one
minute in order to achieve even grease distribution
If stored for three years or longer:
Replace the rolling bearings before commissioning
