Machines with type of construction IM B15, IM B9, IM V8 and IM V9

Types of construction without bearings on the drive side
These machines do not have their own bearing system for the machine shaft at the drive end
(DE). The machine shaft is accepted by the (hollow) shaft or coupling of the system or driven
machine.
• Using the centering edge, the machine is aligned with respect to enclosures, flanges or
driven machines.
• Note that the temperature of the motor and motor shaft increases during operation. The
thermal expansion of the machine shaft must be compensated by the customer by
applying suitable measures.
Use the spring washers provided to locate the NDE bearing without any play.
NOTICE
