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:

Rolling-contact bearings

The motors have rolling-contact bearing bushes for grease lubrication. Depending on the
version, the motors are permanently lubricated or are equipped with a regreasing device.
Depending on the type of load, a deep-groove ball bearing or a cylindrical-roller bearing is
fitted as a floating bearing on the drive end.
The DE bearing contains built-in compression springs that help to rebalance the axial play of
the external bearing rings.
