Mechanical faults

The following table shows the possible causes of and remedial measures for mechanical faults.
Table 8-2 Mechanical faults
↓ Grinding noise
↓ Overheating
↓ Radial vibrations
↓ Axial vibrations
Possible causes of faults
X Rotating parts are grinding
X Rotor not balanced
X Rotor out of true, shaft bent
116
↓ High temperature rise of individual winding sections
Possible causes of faults
X Overload
Interrupted phase in the supply cable
X Interrupted phase in the feeder cable af‐
ter switching on
Mains voltage too low, frequency too high Check the power supply conditions.
Mains voltage too high, frequency too low Check the power supply conditions.
X Stator winding incorrectly connected
X Winding short circuit or phase short cir‐
cuit in stator winding
X Incorrect direction of rotation
Remedial measures
Reduce the load.
Check the switches and cables.
Check the switches and cables.
Check the winding connection in the terminal box.
Determine the winding resistances and insulation
resistances. Carry out repair work after consulta‐
tion with the manufacturer.
Check the connection.
Remedial measures
Establish the cause and realign the parts.
Decouple the rotor and then rebalance it.
Contact the Service Center.
