General inspection guidelines
When inspecting a motor, you do not generally need to dismantle it. The motor only be
dismantled if the bearings need to be replaced.
While the motor is running, check that:
● The smooth running characteristics and machine running noise have not deteriorated.
● The cooling water system is not leaking.
Once the machine has been shut down, check that:
● All the fixing bolts/screws for the mechanical and electrical connections have been
securely tightened.

Bearing replacement intervals
The bearings are subject to wear and must be replaced after a defined number of operating
hours. For average load levels, the bearings must be replaced after approx. 20,000 h,
however, at the latest after 5 calendar years. The address for service & support is provided
in the Appendix under Siemens Service Center.
