Follow the "light inspection’ schedule and in addition spectal attention should be given to the checking of bolts, covers and tightness of electrical connections. INSPECTION PERIODS ‘The length of time between inspections can best be determined by experience governed by Tocal conditions and service. . Recommended periods for inspection are: LIGHT INSPECTION Road locomotives + 6,000 miles or 2 weeks Switchers - 4 weeks HEAVY INSPECTION Road Locomotives = 25,000 miles or 2 months Switchers + 3 mouths If the inspection Indicates that maintenance is required refer to the section covering the item involved. 0 LUBRICATION OF ARMATURE BEARINGS Since the successful performance of roller bearings depends to a great extent upon the proper alignment of the varlous parts and the Conditions of the active surfaces, it follows that extreme care must be exercised in maintaining them. It Is absolutely essential that roller bearings be kept clean. The bearing assem~ bites have been equipped with an elaborate ar~ rangement of labyrinths to exclude dirt while in aorvice. ‘The selection of @ proper lubricant is ways {mporiant and particularly 60 in the ¢ of railway motor armature bearings because of the unusually severe operating conditions en= countered. The grade of grease recommended ts specified on the General Data Sheet. INSPECTION. REQUIREMENTS : LIGHT INSPECTION 1. Cheek axle bearing lubrication, 2. Cheek gears for proper lubrication, 3. Check for worn or broken brushes. 4, Examine commutator for burned spots and general appearance. HEAVY INSPECTION 1. Check for wear of axle bearings. 2, Examine for short, broken or sticking brushes. 3, Check brushholders for correct spring ten- ‘slon tightness of support bolts and cleanliness of brushholder porcelalas. 4. Check front commutator string band for cleanliness. 5. Cheek axle cap bolts, pole bolts and edm- mutator covers for tightness. 6, Examine motor nose suspension for clear- ance, wear and tightness of wearing plate. 1, Examine commutator for roughness, high bars and flat spots,” 8. Inspect Internal parts of motor for oll oF grease leakage. 8, Examine motor leads for chafing and tight- ness of connections. 10. Check motor for entrance df oll or dirt with ventilating air. (Correct*condition caus= ing this on locomotive). MAINTENANCE OF MOTOR Experience on a number of properties has indicated that the armature bearing assemblies wuitable for operation without grease addi~ Hons between motor overhauls. Traction motor maintenance 1s greatly simplified by eliminating periodic lubrication of the armature bearings, Sind moreover this practice removes the hazards ef forcing dirt into the bearings through the grease fitting and the possible use of incorrect Grease. Armature bearings should be lubri- €ated at the recommended time or service in- terval for motor overhaul, (See Motor Over- ‘aul section, page 12). ‘Atmospheric breathing through the bearing labyrinths may disturb the oll bleeding rate of the grease, Therefore on properties without experience with this lubrication schedule, it 18 Tecommended that during the first overhaul"TYPE 370 TRACTION MU,dR eyw Be MAINTENANCE axe seaming © comuraron eno) ¥ ARLE CaP Wuenicaron, Gnctupes LpckWASHERS, at 1.

Use Westinghouse grease M-4577 or equivalent, ‘The interval at which grease must be added can best be determined after service conditions are known, Generally, about one and one half pounds of grease every two weeks will be required. LUBRICATION OF AXLE BEARINGS ‘The axle bearings in the traction: motors ‘are arranged for oll lubrication through felt wicks. ‘These wicks are impregnated with oll and sealed in oll-proof containers by the man~ ufacturer, They are ready to be used without further preparation. If the wicks have become dry while In storage, soak them in warm oll fore installation. Wicks must be well satu- Jed with off when installed. 4 Observe the following precautions when in- stalling a new lubricator assembly+ 1. Do not remove the lubricator trom its oil proof container until rcady to install It. 2. “Be absolutely sure that there is no dirt on the wicks and that the inside of the axle cap te free from dirt and grit and other foreign matter. 3. Be sure that the lubricalor arms operate freely and that the wicks are centered in the bearing window, 4, After the lubricator assembly 1s installed th the axle cap, make sure that the screws are tight and wire the heads together to prevent loosening. : S. Bolt the cover plate tightly in place, Inspect felt-wick-Wul.teated bearings period feally, ‘The felt wicks can be held away {rom the window by a bar inserted in the nlot at the rear of the lubricator acm. If the lubricator 4s badly worn, replace it with a new assembly. Uf the felt is) not excessively worn, remove, wash tt In flushing off and scrape any glazing from the surface: of the wick. Wash all ports of the lubricator and axle cap with flushing off Ys race tm on the mater. Make certain ’ Fia, 3— Felpox Lubricator — Photo 34098 that the lubricator arms move freely and that the wicks are centered in the window and bear against the axle. Under average conditions, this inspection should be performed semi-annually fon road locomotives and annially on other types of locomotives. Ir the rate of off consumption in any axle cap ceems to decrease, the lubricator should be removed and the contact area of the wicks examined for glazing. The wicks can be re- stored to normal by scraping the contact area with a knife. When adding oll to these bearings, add through the regular filling cap on the axle cap and do not pour in over the lubricator assem~ bly. If too much olf 1s poured into the well, tt will overflow, ‘The helght of the oll measured from the bottom of the chamber should be be- ‘tween 2-3/4" maximum and 3/4" minimum. AXLE BEARING CLEARANCE AND WEAR New axle bearings are bored .013" to .018" larger than the nominal axle size over the cen- ter portion and .088" to .090" larger than the axle near the ends to give rellef bore. ‘The axle bearing seats in the motor are bored with an 016" to .017" shim between the caps and the frame and are shipped with an 014" thick shim in order to provide a clamp- ing {it for the bearing. Renew axle bearings that show a wear of 1/16" maximum on the diameter at the center oWEAR LIMIT 1/ wig "aT EACH END = TOTAL CLEARANCE OF $/16!*~ wear Cui TOTAL CLEARANCE Fic, 4-— Lateral and Radial Clearances ‘ 7 of Axle Bearings — Dug. 27-D-9662 i of the bearing. ‘The amount of clearance can be meagured by inserting a narrow feeler gauge between the underside of the axle and the bear- ing; the gauging can be done by removing the axle shield, The gauge should be not more than 1/2" wide and of suffictent length to be able to be Inserted 8". ‘Maximum bearing lange wear is 1/8" at the commutator end and 1/6" at the gear end. Care should’ be exercised to see that the axle shields are in place and the dust guards on at all times when the locomotive is In oper= ation, a5 dust and grit working into the bear= ings will greatly increase the wear. REMOVAL AND REPLACING OF AXLE BEARINGS In case tt becomes necessary to remove the axle bearings while the motor is oa the axle, proceed as follows: 1. If the pearing betng removed ts on the gear side it will be necessary to take out the gear ease bolts and drop the lower half of the gear case. 2. Remove the axle dust shield between the aide bearings. 3. Take out the axle bearing cap bolts and re: move the cap. If the cap sticks it can be looened by tapping = flat cold chisel in the crack betwcen the cap and the motor frame, first on one side and then the, other, Either properly support the cap by a ‘helper or back ‘up by blocking when’ it 1s betng loosened tn order to prevent ita dropping suddenly and caus- ing personal Injury, The lower balf of the axle bearing will drop down with the cap and can be readily knocked out with a wooden block and hammer. To remove the upper half of the. bearing, fack up the motor frame a sufflctent amount to relieve the wetght ‘on the bearing then revolve the upper half around the axle until It ean be slipped off, If the bearing sticks inthe frame it can be knocked loose by driving down on the flange with a hammer and wooden jock, When new bearings are installed, shims .O14-ineh thick should be Inserted between the axle cap and the motor frame. The axle caps should be driven tn straight, as rocking will distort the splines and pinch the bearings. The minimum radial clearance between the axle and the bearing should be .010-Inch. The assembly shims need not be removed unless the bearing shells become loose in service and it is nec~ essary to restore the clamping action between bearing seats and the axle bearings. At suca a time It is desirable to elther use thinner as~ ‘sembly shims, or no shims, as may bu dictated by the crush ‘which may be necessary to con- trol bearing clearances without bearing-shell distortion, See that a new bearing te perfectly clean and rub a little oll over the surface before putting it in place.mye 370 TRACTION MOTOR it ® Fie, §— Type 370 Motor Brushholder and Brushes Photo 340987 HOT AXLE BEARINGS Hot bearings will occur occasionally and are usually the result of one of the following causes: A, Insufficient off in bearings. 3 Lubricators not functioning properly. New bearings with insuilicient clearance. 4. Grit of foreiyn substances working into the bearing. 5. Incorrect end play- In case of trouble, investigate at once the level of ofl in the well and make sure that it ts up to the amouat spcelfied under “Oil Level", im the General Data Sheet. Examine the iclt ‘wick lubricator to sce that it {s in contact with the axle and that the contact surfaces arc not glazed. See Section on “Lubrication of Axle ‘Bearings, page 6". In the case of new axle bearings, it 1s well to examine the clearance as hearings too tightly set up are frequently the cause of trouble. the trouble persisis with the lubricator in good condition, oll at the right level, and ample clearances, the bearing should be removed and examined, “If the bearing chews signs of cutting, it should be carefully serajed down to a new surface, or if too badly scored, should be re- placed with a new bearing. Before replacing a bearing, which has been Jeutting, examine the journal earofully. Remove ny roughness with fine emery paper, taking care after the operation to remove ali traces ‘ : ’ of grit with a clean rag, and rub over the jour- nal with oil. Grease should not be used on a journal which 1s lubricated by oll and felt wick Inbricator as the grease will glaze over the lu- brieator surface and prevent the oll from reach- ing the bearing. BRUSHHOLDER AND BRUSHES The brushholder and brushes can be in- spected by removing the commutator covers. Under no circumstances should a carbon brush ‘be permitted to wear down so far that the brush- holder finger bears on the carbon box. Any brush which may wear to such an extent, that the finger will be less than 1/8 of an inch from the end of its travel before the next inspection [should be replaced. Brush thickness is very ‘mportant and the lelearance of a new brush in the holder should fbe approximately .004 to .010 of an inch; if the clearance 1s much less than the mintmum, the Jcarbon will tend to stick in the box, and if greater than .025 of an inch the brush may rattle, wear away its sides and ehip or break. IThe width of a brush 1s not ¢o important as it may have as much as 1/16-inch clearance in the box without causing any trouble. When new lorushes are inserted, a better fit can be made loy sonding the face of each brush to the com- TAPE SANDPAPER To ComMMyTATOR SANDPAPER Fic, 6 — Method of Sanding Brushes Dug. 27-D-9661Fic. 7 ~ Methed of Obtaining Brush Spring Pressure — Dssg. 27-D-9663 mutator contour, (See Figure 6). Brush pressure on the commutator is matn~ tained by means of flat clock-type springs which ‘exert pressure on the top of the brush by means ured by removing the brush and attaching a Spring balance to the brush finger directiy over the brush, Lift the finger until its under sur- face is 1-7/8" from the bottom of the brush ‘box, (See figure 7).

Those brushholders which cannot be easily reached with the spring balance can be checked by compiring the “feel” of thoze brushholder springs with the “feel” of those checked with the balance. To remove the brushholder for renewal, o accurate adjstment of the brush pressure, first disconnect the cable lead (rom the holder by re~ moving the tap bolt. When the supporting clamp ts loosened, the holder may be lifted out, To adjust the spring pressure, insert a plece of 1/8 inch diameter drill rod in the holder in the tension barrel for the spring re- ; MAINTENANCE quiring adjustment and relieve ‘the tension on the cotter pin. Remove the cotter pin, increase or decrease the tension as required by rotating the tension barrel, and replace the cotter pin. ‘The under side of the brushholder carbon box should be kept within NOT less than 1/8 Inch of the commutator to reduce the chance of brush breakage. Adjustment can be made by loosening the clamping block bolt and moving the bruskliolder to the correct position. A fibre sheet of the proper thickness makes’ a handy gauge. See figure 8, Dwg. 23-B-9565 for proper mensions andeondemninglimite of brushholder. COMMUTATOR A commutator which takes on a smooth uniform polish of chestnut color Is an excep tionally good commutator, Where commutators fave been subjected to severe punishment auch fas heavy current at standstill, or current surges resulting from accidental short elreuits, burned spots may appear and since such spots & brush to momentarily leave the commutator surface the spot will get progressively worse. Any eccentricity of a portion of a commutator | Surface may cause burned spots, When such | spots appear or a commutator looks dirty or studgy, it may be necessary to smooth’ the lsurface’ by means of a grinding stone. By touching @ brush with an inoulating atick, while ithe motor is runaing, it {8 possible to’ judg ltrom the severity of vibration whether or not here 1s eccentricity. A procise way, however, ls to clamp a dial gauge, which cen measure Yhousandths of an inch commutator radius, on the motor. Rotate the motor by hand one com- utator bar distance at a time for one com- ete revolution, recording each bar reading. ‘An eccentricity of .003" or more of total indi €ator reading indicates the necessity of stoning. ‘or bad burns or extreme eccentricity the com- wutator should be turned on ‘ccupled by. the rushholder clamp bolt ly to the motor frame, MalFic, 9 — Grinding Rig— Photo 300741 the radial pressure of the stone cannot readily deflect the rig. 2. Operate the motor at slow speed. The ap~ Proximate speed riay be obtained by jacking the wheels off the rails and connecting the motor to a welding generator. 3. Take extremely light cuts until the commu- tator approaches a true condition. (Heavy cute tend to cause some deflection of the rig and may not actually produce concentricity. 4. Remove all fins or slivers from edges of slots with a hand scraper and refinish with a very light eut with a fine stone to remove all roughness. 5. Check trued commutator with the dial in- @ieator. Commutator should be within .001" of total Indicator reading. 8. Clean out the undercut slots between bars: with a stiff brush (Nylon bristles), leaving no loose material between bars. Wf the commutator ts badly worn or burned, remove the armature from the motor and turn, Fic. 10 — Grinding Rig in Motor Frame Photo 300798 undercut and grind as per the section oa “Com- mutator Re-Conditioning", page 40.

(See section on Removal of Motor from Locomotive page 18). 3, Remove the armature {rom the stator and ait bearing details {com the armature shaft, (See pages 20 and 21). 4. Clean stator and armature both tnside and outside as per Instructions under the Cleaning, Dipping and Baking Section. page 31. gS, Clean alt bearing details Including pinion fend housing. See Sections - Lubrication of 2 Armature Bearings, page 24 and Cleaning and Inspection of Armature Bearings, page 22. 6, Overhaul the stator as follows: a. Remove brushholders and external bolted motor leads. Brazed external motor leads should not be removed. Check the brushholder to see that the brush boxes are not rough or worn, that insulators are clean and free from cracks and that pins are not cracked. The ‘brushholder spring should move freely and the ‘spring shunt should be tight." Spring tenston, ‘with 2 full length brush, should be adjusted be- tween 9 Ibs. and 10.5 Ibs. Renew or repair all defective brushholder farts, (See section on Brushholder and Brushes, page & for proper brush clearances, brushholder dimensions and method of measuring brush spring pressure). b. Inspect axie bearing bore, armature bear- ing bore in frame and housing, frame housing fit and axle caps. Re-condition per Dwgs. 32-A-7667 and Dwg, 29-B-2101 if necessary. (See figures 12 and 13.) ¢. Check and tighten any loose pole bolts. 4, Check commutating pole bores. The type 270 motors built prior to Dec. 1951, had com- mutating pole bores that measured’ 21.860" + “O10”. After Dee. 1951, commutating pole bores were increased to 21,910" + .010". Types 370 D, DE, DL, DZ and DEZ motors which will be used at any thme on 4-motor 2000 H.P. or 2400 H-P. locomotive units and which do not already have the larger bore should be changed to the larger bore of 21.910" + .010", On 310 F, G, GL, GLZ motors, this cfiange to the larger bore {is optional. Any type 370 motor which will be used exclusively on 1600 H.P, Locomotive units or those used exclusively on 6-motor locomo~ tives can have elther the smaller or larger bore within the + .010" tolerance. fe. Check pole spacing. (See section on Pole Spacing, page 28.) F{. Megger the motor fields, If a resistance of Yess than one megohm ts obtained, clean and dry thoroughly and check for grounds. Repeat megger test. & Give the series fleld a ground test, using 1200 volts, 60 cycle current for 15 seconds with ‘the commutating field grounded. Repeat the test on the commutating fleld with the serles field grounded. Ifa ground ts present remove the defective coll and replace with a now coil. (See section on Removing and Replacing of Field Cols page 24.) h. Give the flelds an impedance test for check- ing shorted turns. To impedance test the com- mutating field efreuit, open the circuit AA be- tween commutating colla S-1 and N-2.

Remove the truck from the locomotive. 3, Remove the gear case and alr bellows. 4, Remove the axle shicld and the motor axle caps. The axle caps are machined and bored with the traction motor frames to insure proper alignment. Axle caps on one motor are not in- terchangeabie with those {rom another motor. Changing azle caps can result in mis-alignment of the bearings which may be sufficient to cause bearing fatlure, Care must be taken to always re-assemble the axle caps on the same motor from which they were removed. To factiltate this, each arle cap is stamped with a number which corresponds to a number ctamped on the frame. These numbers are located on the ma- chined outer face of the axle bearing bore on doth “he frame and the caps. : | ee Remove the pinion from the heating source ‘and place near the shaft to which it Is to be applied. Clean the shaft and pinion bore very thoroughly with clean dry rags to remove ail traces of oll or other foreign matter. Check ‘the pinion temperature with an electric pyrom- eter placed as close to the pinion bore as pos sibe. The pyrometer should have a range of 0 to 200°C. As soon as the pinion temperature comes down to the prescribed application tem~ perature the pinion should be applied on the shaft in exactly the same angular position and in the came manner as for the cold stand-off. ‘The same mechanic who applied the pinton cold should apply the pinfon hot n order to obtairt ‘the aame force or push. Measure the hot stand~ ‘off of the pinion from the end of the shaft in. the same manner and the same position that the cold stand-off was taken. The difference be- tween the hot and cold stand-cifs gives the ad: vance of the pinion on the shaft. This advance must {all within the application limite, (See General Data Sheet). If the advance {s not with- in the proper limits, the pinion, should be pulled, and re-applied. a Pintona with 15 teeth which fall within the’ proper advance limits should be pull tested at 70 tons, after pinion and shaft have cooled, ‘The plnton is equipped with a nut, which should be applied after the pinion and shaft tem~ peratures have equalized, Screw the pinion nut home tightly with a wrench having 2 purchase loverage of 4 to 6 feet.

CLEANING AND INSPECTION OF ARMATURE BEARINGS CLEANING lecause of the prominent use of anti-fric~ jarings in rallway apparatus permanent ent should be provided to efficiently clean 'y bearings removed from service. A very 22 good method requires the construction of a cleaning booth which consists of a cateh basin and drain and a ventilating hood. The bearing fs cleaned over the catch basin by directing a ream of cleaning fluid upon it from a hand held noezle. A small pump clreulates the clean- ing fluid and pressurizes the system. Screens and filters must be provided to remove forelg matter and hardened grease. A suction fan discharges the vapors to the atmosphere. ‘A safety type petroleum solvent should be used in the cleaning of bearings. Gasoline, benzene or carbon tetrachloride are considered too hazardous for shop u INSPECTION ‘Alter the bearing has been cleaned, inspect as follows: 1.

Take out the bolts holding the commutating pole to the frame and lift out the pole and coll. When replacing cotls, the procedure should be the reverse of that just described and the following points should be carefully noted: 1, It is important that the main coll springs be placed in thelr positions between the pole and coll, Check that coll springs are not nicked or bent where open face coils are used and in- sulating etrip must be placed behind the main and commutating coils.DISMANTLING © WA cite Yi 7TYPE: 370 TRACTION MOTORvss DISMANTLINGon TYPE 370 TRACTION MOsOR Fic, 25 —~ Gauge — Duog. 11-A-1627 TXA 2, See that the pole seats and backs are clean and free from chips, vernish, paint or dirt be- fore putting the pole im place, and make sure that the poles are pulled “home” to thelr seat by the bolts. The commutating pole bores should be checked and should be ‘within the values given in the motor overhaul section. 3. When poles are’ replaced in the stator they Should be positioned equidistant from adjacent poles. (See section on Pole Spacing.) POLE SPACING It ts extremely important in assembling of the motor that the main polea and commutating poles be spaced properly. A method for ob- taining the correct spacing follows - 1. Scribe a centerline the full tencth of exch main pole face. On any one pole, scribe a ‘Second line the full length of the pole face 7/16" clockwise from the ecnterline, looking into the pinion end of the frame. 2. Remove the brushholder which 1s in line with the main pole having the second scribed Une, Accurately lay out the radial centerline © the carbon box of this brushholder on the end of the brushhalder which is visible when looking into the frame iram the pinion end. Mark ‘this centerline so that it can be seen easily, and re-install the brushholder. With the frame in a vertical position, com= the pinion end of the frame and use a square ‘with’ a long straight side to accurately allgn “ DES end down, place a straight tar across 28 the line 7/16" trom the cénterline of a pole with the conterline of a brush box directly be- neath it, Do this carefully, shitting the pole as necessary to assure alignment throughout the length of the pole. Re-check the all; ‘ment of the pole with the brushholder after the pole bolts are tightened, to make certain the setting has not been disturbed. 7 4. Starting from a point on the centerline of this pole approxtmately 1 Inch in trom the pin= ton end, use dividers to step off the distances to corresponding points on the centerlines of * three poles In the clockwise direction. Return to the starting point and step off three poles {in the counterclockwise direction, ending on the same pole as before. Continue in this manner shifting poles and adjusting the dividers a6 Recessary until the poles are equally spaced. Repeat this procedure at a point approximately Linch in from the commutator end of the_pole: Make a final check af both enda of the pol after all the pole bolts have been tightened, 5. Space each commutating pole {rom the two adjacent main pole tips, .using either dividers or @ spacing tool as shown in figure 28. Ad- just each commutating pole so that the distance from the right hand commutating pole tip to the adjacent main pole tip does not differ from the corresponding distance on the left side by more than 1/32". Check both pinton and commutator end of each commutating pole, ‘ASSEMBLY OF ARMATURE BEARINGS 1. Heat the off throwers and both Inner racet in an off bath for shrinking onto the shaft.

Preheat the armature to a temperature of 110° to 1256C spd prepare to solder before it cools. +4, Place the armature ina new horizontal po- sition with the pinion end raised at least 3 tnches so that excess solder will tend to flow to the front end of the slots thereby reducing the possibitity of a short-circult back of the commutator risers. 5. Keep the commutator hot (1259C) with a gas torch or electric heating element placed ahead Of the soldering iron, In no Instance should the flame of the gas torch be directed on the com- mutator risers, Be careful not to overheat commutator. 8. Coat the commutator necks with soldering flux just before soldering. Allow time for the alcohol or ether in the flux to evaporate, before soldering to minimize the danger of fire. Rotate the armature so that the slot being soldered is always slightly above the horizontal center line of the commutator. Butt the tp of ‘a well-tinned iron against the front of the riser to be soldered and heat the parts thoroughly. Feed solder to the top and front edge of the ‘Slot 35 soon as possible in order to avoid bak- ing of the flux. Care should be taken to see that the Joint ts hot enough to cause the solder to flow freely and not merely warm enough to cause the solder to adhere only to the outside of the slot. & Turn the excess solder off the commutator face and risers. 9. Inspect the faces of the commutator risers for signs of poorly soldered armature leads and resolder if necessary. 10, Test the armature on a “growler” or any short-circuit testing device for short circuits back of the risers. Check any short to make sure that It is not produced by solder in the commutator undercutting. CLEANING, DIPPING AND BAKING CLEANING OF MOTOR The cleanin of the vtetor and rotor ts a very important operation preparatory to dipping and baking. Unicss ull dirt and grease are re~ ‘moved, the varnish treatment will not be fully effective, Remove brushholders and external leads before cleaning, dipping and baking, PRELIMINARY CLEANING WITH AIR BLAST AND SOLVENTS Remove loose dirt by blowing with an alr blast. Loosen thick accumulations of dirt and gummy matter by scraping with a putty knife or simflar scraping tool. Blow the loosened dirt off the machine with an air blast.TYPE 370 TRACTION MOTOR ) Hard gummy films of an bily or grease iture may be softened to a semi-liquid cond!- ion by application of a petroleum hydro-carbon solvent to facilitate their removal.

SOLVENT CLEANING BY SPRAYING In cases where time or facilities does not. permit hot jet cleaning, a sufficient degree of cleaning may be obtained by washing the appara- tus with a suitable petroleum solvent applied by spraying. ‘The procedure for cleaning with solvents follows: 1. Air blast all parts of rotor and stator. 2. Clean all surfaces by hand using cleancloths or a swab moistened with Westinghouse solvent No. 1609-1. If the original varnish coating on the windings is cracked, use a brush wet with ‘solvent, to clean all dirt and. grease from the cracks. 3. With the armature in # vertical position and with the commutator end up, clean under the commutator and through the vent holes by spray- Ing the surfaces, with a Jet of solvent under = maximum pressure of 30 psi at the spray noz~ tle. The solvents used for this purpose should be petroleum solvents having flash points of not less than 100°C (212F), Suitable solvents are Westinghouse solvents 1609-1 or Kerosene PDS 1956. Repeat the spraying operation with the pinion end up and finish by repeating with the commutator end up. 4. Use the spray gun for cleaning back of the field coils, Note: Avold using excessive amounts of solvent to prevent any softening effect of the solvent on the varnish, 5.

The varnish snouid be kept clean ing through 4 stF ag. fairly clor cloth, from ime to Lime, depending on the num-= ber of armatures and stators dijyped. A standard approved iter, if available, way be used. It ig dustrabl. to hold the varnist ct a temperature of front 25" to 224C. If the varnish becomes too hot the tank lit; will be decreased; If too cold the best finish will not be obtained. DRYING 1. Dry the armature and stator in an oven at a temperature of 125° to 135°C for 6 to 8 hours. COOLING 1. Cool armature and stator to not less than 250C nor more than 10°C above room temper~ ‘ature when these are greater than 35°C. In any case it is best to have the armature and Stator at 5° or 10°C, above room temperature, ‘when they are dipped in the varnish. The rea~ Son for this is that the colls absorb moisture rather quickly after drying if they are permitted to stand at room temperature. DIPPING 1, Dip the armature and stator in the varnish with the commutator end up. The armature and stator should be at the temperature given under "Cooling’, above. Bring the varnish up 3/4 of the way on the risers for the armature and half way up the commutator openings on the stator and hold until bubbling ceases, DRAINING 1. Remove the armature or stator from the varnish and drain with the commutator end up for approximately 1/2 hour. eae et TeTYPE 370 TRACTION MOTOR 41 steouns ar 25°C viscosity = ) 1000 00 00 4 HHL aE ? u GALLONS.

Refer to the armature winding as~ yembly and material drawing for the material required. (See figure 29.) TEMPORARY BANDING 1. Preheat the wound armature for at least 8 hours at a temperature of 116° to 125°C, 2 Before applying bands, drift the rear coil ends in at the loops to sat adjacent coil ends Hight against cach other and to give the minimum rear coll extension. 3. On the commutator ed make certain that the spaces between the cxt-rsins are properly insulated as shown on thy wiu'ing material draw- ing. This 1s cssentiai to >revent the collapse of the stronds in the lead gevups under banding stress Prpply the temperary banding within two Sars after removing the armature from the oven; the armature “how'd to at a temperature between 80% and 90°C. Ti enclre armature should be tanded in one op-raticn without re- leasing the tenston. Refer tu the vinding mate- rial drawing for the proper size of banding wire and the correct bandirg tenston. Start at one end of the core and pull the armature coils down by placing steel strips over the coils inthe arn:at.re slots ard ind ing the band wire over then; procerd thas alors the length of the core and continu» the binding over the end winding, which should be protected from the band wire by one or two iyers of un~ treated duck; then return tc ce (ar (slacting) end to wind the end band there. ‘The band in each ont winding section should contain at least the sume number of turus shorn on the drawing for @ finai band .1nd shouid be so applied that each wire touches “he adajacent one. Use one tinned holding clip at the start and finish of each end winding band section. NOTE: Each armature coi! must be pulled down tight against the cnil support, and "\may be necessary to tap the coils lightly as banding ts applied. Solder the temporary banding across its full BANDING : ‘width at the clip at the start and finish of band. ch 6. Let the armature cobl to room temperature. 7. Remove the temporary banding from the core section only and drive in the slot wedges from both ends of the core. If the wedges are aot tight, place .010 or 015 inch thick Micarta strips over the coils in the slots and drive the wedges over the strips. PERMANENT BANDING Permanent banding ts applied as follows: 1. With the armature at room temperature, remove all old or temporary banding material. 2. Apply the band insulation, using twine to ‘keep the clips and insulation in place until the band is started. Refer to the winding material drawing for identification of band insulation material, 3. Use banding wire of the proper material and diameter as called for on the winding ma- terial draiving and apply at the specified ten- sion. Anchor the banding wire ebout one end of the core by wrapping it upon itself and ine crease the tension to the proper value before starting to wind the end bands. Space the bands as shown on the winding material drawing. Ap= ply the required number of turns with each turn touching the adjacent one. Bend the start and finish clips back over the bands and spot solder the hands at these clips with tin solder. Main- tain the specified tension on the bands until the start and fintsh of each band 1s soldered in plave, then cut the wire from the tenston device and bend it back to form a hook around the clips at both ends of each band, The hook should be flat against the band insulation and should not exceed 1/8 inch in length. 4.

TURNING COMMUTATOR Insert armature in a lathe making sure that the lathe centers are true with respect to the armature bearing fits. When turning take light cuts removing only as much copper to give a uniform surface. Protect the armature go that Copper cuttings do not enter the winding. Round off the end of the commutator toa 1/16" radius. turning measure commutator diaraeter. If *7""the commutator diameter is less than 16-5/8" it _) must be replaced. TESTING ‘MOTOR TEST For checking the motor under conditions both high armature voltage and high speed following test equipment ia required. a) A variable DC voltage source capable of impressing up to 1000 volts on the armature and commutating coll cireuit of the motor. ‘This high voltage source should have a capac- ity of 10 KW in order to supply the rotational losses. b)_A low voltage - high current source of separate excitation for the motor series field capable of carrying current up to approximately 360 amperes at 2.7 volts, ©) A low-current high voltage efreuit breaker or fuse should be inserted in the high voltage armature circuit for safety. A voltmeter and ammeter are nected. ‘The test procedure follows, 1. Supply 350 amperes excitation to the motor fields. 2. Impress alow voltage across the armature elrcutt untii the armature 1s rotating slowly. 3. Gradually raise the armature voltage up to UNDERCUTTING Undercut the mica insulation between copper bars toa depth of 3/64" to $/64". Undercutting can be done to the best advantage by the use af a ‘small power driven saw built especially for this, purpose. Sharp edges of the commutator bara should be removed with a inife. It is very im- portant that all copper slivers and mica chips be Temoved from the slots and sides of bars. After turning and undercutting the commutator should be polished by using a fine grade of sandpaper. ‘AIR CURING COMMUTATORS After turning, undercutting and sanding or grinding of a commutator, it should be air cured, SEE SECTION ON AIR-CURING. 1000 voits, atr-curing the commutator as de- serlbed below. The maximum safe operating speed will be obtained on a typleal motor at 1000 volts across the armature and 350 amperes in the fleld, 4. With the motor running at 2350 RPM, check the armature bearings, armature balance and condition of the commutator. AIR-CURING Ata speed corresponding to approximately 200 volts across the armature, with $50 amps. tn the series field direct a stream of dry com- pressed air across the entire commutator, hold- ing the outlet of the air hose approximately one inch from the surface of the commutator. Watch closely for ring fire or sparking between ad- ‘Hcent bars. When ring-fire or sparking is ob- served, hold the voltage at that level and alr- cure until all sparking has disappeared. When sparking haa ceased raise the voltage 100 volts and repeat the process. Continue this in 100 volt steps uatil the test voltage range has been covered, If sparks cannot be blown out at any Particular voltage shut down the machine and Clean out the commutator slots removing any conducting material, NOTE: NEVER APPLY VOLTAGE TO THE ARMATURE UNLESS THE SERIES FIELD IS FULLY EXCITED.- TESTING LOCOMOTIVE RUNNING TEST "Ona locomotive, when the traction motor leads have been disconnected, the motors should always be tested for their direction of rotation when the motor circuits are established. ‘This test 1s very important and should be conducted carefully, as it is quite possible to have the locomotive apparently operate cor- rectly in elther direction and still have a wrong connection which would produce serious motor trouble eventually. For example, if a fleld and armature lead were interchanged, the motor would operate cor- rectly when the locomotive was operating 1a one rection, but in the opposite direction the motor field would be cut out by the action of the re- verser, If the unit were put dtrectly into service ‘with all motors in operation without previously testing the individual motors, the condition men~ tioned above might conti we for some time be- fore it was detected, with the probable result ‘of a “roasted out" motor. ‘The uatt, therefore, should be moved "back- ward" and "forward" with each pair of motors. Watch the load ammeter during these tests, if the locomotive is on level track the current required to move it in either direction with any two of the motors should be practically the same. j Any large differencé in the current required to start the unit under the same conditions with the individual motors would indicate some ab- normal conditions. ” ‘The following combinations are the ones ‘most kely to be encountered in making these teats: ‘1)- The individual motors operate the unit’ in, + the direction indicated by the master controller. lever,and the current taken by individual motors. ‘when ‘starting Is practically the same, indicating the conditions to be correct. 2) The individual motors operate the locomotive opposite the direction indicated by the master eoatroller lever, and the current taken by the individual motors 1s practically the ‘same; this condition Is caused generally by the interchange , Of the F and R wires between the drum of the master controller and the reverser. The con- dition may also be caused by the reversal of the armature or field leads of all the motors, but such a situation is very unlikely. Chock the wiring diagram and make the necessary * correction. ! 3) The individual axles do not revolve in the ‘same direction for a given position ofthe master controller lever, but the current requiredto start is practically the same; such a sttuation indicates that the fleld or armature leads of one of the motors 1s reversed, In the correction of the difficulty, be sure that the changs ts made at the correct point ~ namely, do not reverse the armature leads when the field leads should have been changed and vice versa, A reversal of the wrong leads may correct the immediate difficulty, but it will also make the wiring different from the diagram and may lead to future troubles. Check the diagram and change the leads accordingly. '4) A motor may operate the unit correctly in one direction, but slowly or.oct at all in the other direction althoughthe currest 1s excessive. This trouble 1s usually caused by the inter- changing of an armature and a tleld lead; such an arrangement will give correct comections for one position of the master controller lever but will cut the fleld out of clreult entirely in ‘the opposite position, aee Supersesles Supple: “L a) Renee. ¢ Parts Oala310-DEz, Dated Sopteaber, 1931 © January, 151 TYPE 370-DEZ MOTOR = CHANGES: Page No. 2 - in heading “Gear cases".
