Safe installation, operation and maintenance must be performed by qualified personnel. Familrization with, and adherence to, NEMA MG2, the National Electrical Code (NEC), and local codes is required. It is important to observe safety precautions fo protect personnel from possible injury. PERSONNEL SHOULD BE INSTRUCTED TO: 1. _ Be familiar withthe equipment and read al instructions thoroughly before instalng or working ‘on equipment. Avoid conact wth energized cirais or rotating part. Disconnect al power sources before iitating any maintenance or rep. ‘Act with cae in aocordance with presrbed procedures in handing and lng this equipment Be sure untis electrically grounded in aoordance wit code requirements Be sure equipment is properly enclosed or protected to prevent access by cidren or ther unauthorized personnel to prevent possible accidents 7. Be sure shaft key is uly captive before units energized. 8. Avoid contact with capacitors uni safe discharge procedures have been completed 9, Provide proper guarding for personne! aginst rotating parts and applications invoking high inertia loads which can cause overspeed 410. Avoid extended exposure to equipment with high noise levels INSPECTION AND HANDLING Inspect unit to make sure no damage has occured during shipment. Check nameplate for corect speed, horsepower, voltage, hertz and phase for conformance with power supply and equipment. Units shouldbe lied using all eyebolts or gs if provided. These AWARNING} eyeboits or lugs are provided for iting this unit only and must not be used to ft any additional weight. Lifting angle, from shank of eyebolt, must not exceed ‘30 degrees for machines with single and 45 degrees for machines with multiple lifting means. Replacement eyebolts must be per ASTM A489 or equivalent. All eyebolts must be securely tightened Be careful not fo touch overhead powerlines wit iting equipment. Faure fo observe this wamng may result in serious personal nur STORAGE Units shoud be stored indoors, in clean, dry location & winding shouldbe protected from exces- sive moisture absorption, NOTE: If motors ae tobe stored for over one year, refer to Nidec Motor Corporation (NMC). I motors are tobe stored for over one year and if gear and bet transmission units ae tobe stored for over six mnths, refer to Nidec Motor Corporation.

Couplings should be property aligned ‘and balanced. For belt, chain and gear drive selection refer to the drive or equipment manufactur- er. For application of drive equipment refer to applicable information in NEMA M1. Motors have been dynamically balanced using a half Key the same length asthe fl key shipped with the moor. pulley length Keyway is less than his length, rework long Key by removing one-half of excess length between pulley and end of key to maintain balance. Do not restrict motor ventlafon. Unless otherwise spectied on nameplate, motor is designed for operation in aocordance with NEMA MGt “Usual Service Conditions’ which states an ambient tem perature range of 15° C to 40°C (5° F to 104° F). Standard grease lubricated units are suitable for ‘operation wii hs temperature range. Special lubricants may be required for ambient temperatures culsideof this range. Note: Motors operating underrated load and alowable ambient conditions may feel hot when touched; his is normal and should not be cause for concer. When in doubt, measure frame surface temperature and confer wit nearest ofice Enclosed motors normaly have conden- sation drain openings. Insure that drain operings are propery located and open (plugs removed) for the motor mounting poston. Drain openings should be at lowest point of end brackets, ame hous- ing and terminal housing when the motor is instaled. This may require modification of motor to ‘accomplish. If unit appears wet, andlor has been stored in a damp location, dry out thoroughly and check for adequate insulation resistance to ground before operating, Guards should be provided for all exposed rotating parts to AWARNING | revent possible personal injury.

Where unexpected starting could be hazardous to ‘personnel, do not use automatic reset starting devices. USE OF VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVES Elecic motors can be detimentallyafeted when applied with variable fequency dives (VFD'). The non-sinusoidal waveforms of VFD's have harmonic content which causes additonal motor heating: and high voltage peaks, 3-EnOther effects of VFD's on motor performance incude reduced efcienc, increased load current, vibration and noise, Standard motors utilized wit VED's must be limited to those application consi- erations defined in NEMA MG-1 Par 30, For most curent guidelines on instaling and applying a US Motors prodot refer to hipfiwusmotors.comiuidenes. This information takes precedence over previous published information NEMA MG-1 Part 31 defines perfomance and application considerations for Defnite-Puppose Inverter Fed Motor, To insure satstactory performance and reliability, Nidee Motor Corporation offers and recommends nameplated inverter duty motor products which meet the requirements of NEMAMG-t Part 31.
