The products relevant to this handbook correspond to the technical level reached at the moment the handbook is printed. Rossi S.p.A. reserves the right to introduce, without notice, the necessary changes for the increase of product performances. Use conditions and limits The motors are intended for use in industrial applications, in accordance with the nameplate data, with ambient temperature -15 to +40 °C (with peaks at -20 °C to +50 °C), maximum altitude 1000 m, according to CEI EN 60034-1.

For a 2 year storing period in normal surroundings it is necessary to generously grease the sealings, the shafts and the unpainted machined surfaces, if any. For storages longer than 2 years or in aggressive surroundings or outdoors, consult Rossi S.p.A.. UTD.164.06-2022.00_EN...
For lifting and transporting the motor use the motor eyebolts (when provided) keeping in mind that these are suitable only for lifting the motor and not other machines fitted to it; be sure that load is properly balanced and provide lifting systems, and cables of adequate section. If necessary, motor masses are stated in Rossi technical catalogs. Mechanical installation...

V-belts should not be excessively tensioned in order to avoid excessive loads on bearings and motor shaft (for maximum loads on shaft end and relevant bearing life see Rossi catalogs). Motor is dynamically balanced; in case of standardized shaft end the balancing is obtained with half key inserted into the shaft end and exclusively for the nominal rotation speed (in order to avoid vibrations and unbalances it is necessary that also power transmissions are balanced with half key).
Installation Electrical installation Before putting into service and after long stillstanding or storing periods it is necessary to measure insulation resistance between the windings and to earth by adequate d.c. instrument (500 V). Insulation resistance control Attention! Do not touch the terminals during and just after the measurement because of live terminals. Insulation resistance, measured at +25°C winding temperature, must not be lower than 10 MΩ...

Electric connections Motor connections Follow schemes on Fig. 1 (Pag. 11) e Fig. 2 (Pag. 12). Motor sizes ≤ 160S: before connecting the motor for the first time, proceed to knockout the openings on the terminal box to allow the cable entry; (see fig. on the left); after that, accurately remove any fragment still remaining inside the terminal box;...

Electric connections HBF brake connection Brake coil pre-arranged as standard for separate brake supply. (Brake coil already Y-connected to the auxiliary terminal block: re-arrange the brake coil connection in case of motor Δ-connected or in case of separate supply with Δ voltage). For both cases, before commissioning, connect the auxiliary terminal block to the motor terminal block or to an external line.

Electric connections Auxiliary equipment connections: bi-metal type thermal probes, thermistor type thermal probe (PTC), anti-condensation heater The connection wires are inside the terminal box and are marked by the letter "B" (bi-metal type thermal probes), "T" (thermistor type thermal probes PTC) or "S" (anti-condensation heater) on cable terminals; they are connected to an auxiliary terminal block according to schemes of Tab.
Maintenance Motor periodical maintenance Before carrying out maintenance, make sure that you have disconnected the power supply to the motor and other accessories (if any) and secured the motor against accidental insertion. Releasing the brake runs the risk of inhaling brake dust; wear a protective mask. Motor surfaces can reach high temperatures.

Maintenance HBZ, HEZ brake periodical maintenance Verify, at regular intervals, that air-gap and backlash "g" (see Fig. 6) of release lever pullers, if any, are included within values stated in Tab. 5 (remove the wear dust of friction surface, if any). Excessive air-gap value deriving from friction surface wear makes brake noise level rise and could prevent its electric release.
Page 23
Maintenance HBF brake periodical maintenance Verify, at regular intervals, that air-gap and backlash "g" (see Fig. 8) of release lever pullers, if any, are included within values stated in Tab. 6 (remove the wear dust of friction surface, if any). Tab.

Maintenance HBV (HBVM) brake periodical maintenance Verify, at regular intervals, that air-gap is included between values stated in Tab.7. Excessive air-gap value could produce: decrease of braking torque up to zero, rise of brake noise level, and even miss of electric release. Fig.9.
