2. Temperature Classification
The motor type WL381 is designed for increased safety Exe in accordance with
EN60079. The temperature classification is T3: 200° C.
3. List of Standards
The motor is designed and manufactured in accordance with the following specific
standards.
4. Safety Warning
This motor has been designed for use in a potentially hazardous area and is
marked as increased safety Ex e.
The following instructions must be adhered to for safe installation, operation and
maintenance of the motor. Additionally, there will be National and/or Site Safety
Standards that must be complied with.
The installation, operation and maintenance of the motor must be carried out by
qualified personnel.
5. Storage
• Motors should be stored in a dry condition, standing clear from damp, free from
condensation and protected from extremes of temperature. If damp storage
cannot be avoided then connecting the motor heaters (when fitted) should be
considered. Adequate precautions must be taken for safety as parts of the motor
will be live.
• Damage can be caused to ball and roller bearings if these are subject to
vibration.
3
• To prevent damage to the bearings it is recommended that the shaft is given a
few turns by hand every four weeks to load the bearing at different places
randomly.
• Inspect bearing grease before putting motor into operation and renew if it has
deteriorated.
• Check insulation resistance before putting motor into operation. If this is less than
10 Mohm, carry out drying operation as detailed in the General Maintenance
section below.
• On receipt of motor after delivery, ensure that no damage has occurred during
transit. If there is any evidence of damage to the packaging then the motor must
be inspected and checked by qualified personnel before putting into service.
• Ensure that the motor rating plate data meets the required specification exactly.
Operating the motor outside the stated design limits could cause a potential
hazard and may invalidate the warranty.
• The installation must provide for adequate guarding of rotating or heated parts.
Where fitted, these guards must be in position and secured.
• Any cover provided for live electrical parts or connections must be in place.
• Power cables to and from the motor must be of adequate current carrying
capacity and rated for the appropriate voltage.
• Except in special cases where it is part of the order requirement, the motor must
be earthed in accordance with the Site Regulations.
• Cabling to the motor must be connected in accordance with the diagram supplied.
• It is essential that the motor is supplied with sufficient ventilation from the ambient
air (maximum 50°C). It is recommended that the controls for the ventilation
4
system operate in conjunction with the main motor drive system and ensures that
ventilation is available at the same time as the motor starts. If the motor is
operated without cooling air, then heating will occur and the drive will trip on over
temperature. To prevent this, it is recommended that an air pressure switch is
connected.
• Precautions must be made to ensure that ventilation openings are free from
obstruction and re-circulation of the motor outlet air is not possible.
7. Thermal Protection
• The motor will be fitted with over temperature protection for the stator windings.
Refer to the motor data sheet for number and type of thermal protection used.
• Thermal protection for the windings must be intrinsically safe. The standards
require that one thermal protection device is fitted in each phase as a minimum. It
is essential that the thermal protection is connected to protect the motor from
overheating and thus prevent a potential explosion hazard occurring.
• It is the responsibility of the end user to connect the thermal protection that is
fitted to the motor to ensure safe operation.
• One thermal protection device per phase must be connected to a separate and
intrinsically safe control circuit. This ensures that thermal protection is always
maintained, even in the event of a fault with the drive.
• If fitted, the additional set of three may be routed back to the inverter drive.
8. Heaters
• When specified in the motor data sheet, heaters will be fitted inside the motor end
shields. To prevent condensation deteriorating the insulation, heaters should be
switched on when the motor is not in operation. Adequate safety measures must
be taken to ensure that access to live connections cannot be made whilst the
heaters are energised.
Important Note – Any repair arranged by the end user, unless expressly
approved by manufacturer, releases the manufacturer from his responsibility to
conformity.

Inspection
• If the motor needs to be rewound, this may only be carried out by the
manufacturer or nominated representative. Failure to do so will invalidate the
warranty and could compromise design features that affect the conformity to the
specifications.
• If re-greasable bearings are fitted, this will be mentioned in the motor data sheet
along with recommended lubrication details.
• Old bearings must be removed using suitable pullers and the replacements fitted
by heating.
1. Using appropriate bearing press tool, press drive end bearing outer race into
drive end bracket until bearing is seated against the shoulder of the bearing bore
of the bracket.
2. Grease bearing outer race.
3. Smear sealing lip of new oil seals with clean grease.
4. Apply jointing compound to outside diameter of drive end external oil seal.
5. Fit drive end external oil seal with spring towards drive end extension of shaft.
Using appropriate oil seal press tool, press the external oil seal home into
housing recess in the drive end bracket.
6. Apply jointing compound to outside diameter of drive end internal oil seal.
7. Using appropriate press tool, press the greased drive end internal oil seal home
into the drive end internal cap (oil seal spring to be towards drive end extension
of shaft).
8. Fit drive end cap over shaft, then fill drive end cap 2/3 full of grease.
9. Heat drive end bearing inner race to no hotter than 90oC and slide onto shaft, up
to shaft shoulder. Allow bearing to cool, then grease inner race of bearing.
10. Fit drive end bearing nut to shaft and tighten nut up to bearing.
11. Fit copper slug and grub screw to hole in drive end bearing nut and tighten grub
screw.
6
12. Fit drive end bracket over shaft and bearing, to dimensions on outline drawing.
13. Fit bearing cap to drive end bracket using screws and washers.
14. Fit drive end bracket assembly to frame assembly.
1. Fit non-drive end cap over shaft, then fill cap 2/3 full of grease.
2. Heat non-drive end bearing to no more than 90oC and slide onto shaft until the
bearing is seated against the shaft shoulder. Allow bearing to cool, and then
grease bearing.
3. Fit non-drive end bearing lock washer with inside tab seated in keyway of shaft.
4. Fit non-drive end bearing nut to shaft and tighten up to bearing washer.
5. Fold external tab in bearing lock washer back to fit into slot in bearing nut.
6. Smear sealing lip of oil seal with clean grease.
7. Apply suitable jointing compound to outside diameter of oil seal.
8. Place greased non-drive end external oil seal with spring towards drive end
extension of shaft. Using appropriate oil seal press tool, press oil seal into the
housing recess of the non-drive end bracket, until it is flush with bracket.
9. Fit non-drive end bracket over shaft and bearing.
10. Fit bearing cap to non-drive end bracket using screws and washers.

1. Remove external drive end oil seal from drive end bracket by using a suitable drift
and tap out from inside of bracket. After removal, the oil seal must be scrapped.
1. Remove non-drive end external oil seal from non-drive end bracket by using a
