Page 8: About This Manual
About this Manual These operating instructions apply to AC motors of the following series: K8.R and B8.R. Besides the general assembly instructions, these guidelines are to be followed for the installation, start-up and main- tenance of explosion-protected AC motors with a degree of protection of "pressure-resistant encapsulation" marked: (II..), EEx de II. - Page 9 Servicing VEM customer service is available for all technical information concerning VEM motors. Should a problem occur,contact us or one of our local branch offices. When ordering spare parts, in addition to the listed designation of the part required, please indicate the motor type and serial no.

Page 10: Installation
Table 1:Minimum dimensions for lifting eyebolts and crossbeams Frame size Ø horizontal vertical Installation Mechanical checks After removing the shipping braces and shaft blocks (see also the marking on the motor), the motor shaft must be rotated by hand. In the case of brakemotors the brake must be vented at standstill (maximum of 10 min). This must be performed after applying voltage as per the circuit diagram at page 15. - Page 11 Figure 2: Minimum distance of obstacles from the air opening The motors are intended for use in areas subject to explosion hazards. The following data on the rating plate distin- guish the motor as explosion-protected equipment: • Degree of protection •...
- Page 12 Figure 3: Motor Fastening Large-surface Washer In order to achieve an adequately large contact surface, apply a large-surface washer under each nut or screw head > Alternatively use flange nuts or bolts. If the motors' shaft end points up or down (vertical mounting arrangement), it is necessary to fit an appropriate cover to prevent any foreign bodies from dropping in the driven machine through the air inlet and outlet openings in the ventilator hood.
- Page 13 > Then mount the pulley or coupling on the shaft end: make sure to screw a nut with a washer having at least the same diameter of the pulley hub or coupling on the threaded bolt. Use the utmost care in mounting dynamically balanced pulleys or couplings on the shaft end. Machines to be con- nected to the motor by means of couplings are to be aligned according to the specifications of the coupling's manu facturer.

- Page 18 Motors with temperature monitoring The motors are equipped with PTC's as per DIN 44081. Take note of the temperature data and tripping time the rating plate. Connect the PTC to an approved tripping device with marking PTB 3.53-PTC/A or II(2) G. Please note! The tripping device is not explosion-protected.
- Page 19 Take note of all of the data of the converter manufacturer for said fault condition. Motors with brake The mains line in the version with incorporated brake is connected in the motor terminal box and in the version with the built-on brake in the separate brake terminal box. Observe the supplied connection diagram and the rated volt- age visible on the rating plate.

Temperature class T6 = 85°C T5 = 100°C T4 =135°C Permissible heating on the shaft Permissible heating on the flange Start-up Please note! Before mounting or start-up the insulation resistance is to be measured by qualified technicians. The resistance must be greater than 1 MΩ. A critical value is reached at 0.5 MΩ. If this value is not reached, the motors must be dried. - Page 24 Lubrication Please note! In order to avoid damage the bearings and grease must be kept clean. The deep groove ball bearings of motors up to frame size 280 are sealed on both sides and filled by the bearing manu- facturer with a grease which is enough for normal operating conditions in 4 or multi-pole motors for 40000 operating hours or in 2-pole motors for 20000 operating hours.
- Page 25 Instructions for ensuring explosion protection during operation • All of the contact screws and nuts of the electrical connections are to be tightened securely to prevent excessively high contact resistance values that may lead to an excessive degree of overheating of the contact point; torque values.
