This includes provision of suitable chokes / filters at

Temperature Rise of the Motor


Converter output voltage is not sinusoidal, but it
contains higher order harmonics. These harmonics
create additional losses in core, stator winding and
rotor of the motor. This in turn, results in higher
temperature rise of the motor, crossing the normal
class B limits at rated load. The increase in
temperature rise is of the order 15 to 200C
In order to keep the temperature rise of the motor
within acceptable limits, torque de-rating of the
motor is essential.

compensating for the circulation of harmonic
currents and the additional heat generated due to
the PWM voltage harmonic content.
Following figure provides the de-ration factor based
on the Harmonic Voltage Factor (HVF).

Temperature Rise of the Windings for Variable Torque Applications


When motor speed is reduced in variable torque application (generally parabolic torque speed curve
characteristic), ventilation due to fan reduces. But motor losses also reduce drastically.
To limit the winding temperature rise to class B limits at rated output with converter supply, permissible
rated output must be reduced to 85% of the motor nameplate output on sinusoidal supply.
Temperature Rise of the Windings for Constant Torque Applications
When motor speed is reduced in constant torque application, ventilation due to fan reduces. Motor losses
remain practically constant in this application but ventilation reduces considerably. Hence, in addition to
harmonics effect, the temperature rise is additionally increased due to reduced speed of the cooling fan.
Providing independent cooling system (separate ventilation) to the motor in this case is very effective in
keeping the temperature rise within acceptable limits.
Bearing Currents
Voltage is generated at shaft ends due to high switching frequency of converter and the excess length of
cable between converter and motor. This results in currents flowing through bearings and results in
bearing failure. One remedy is to use the insulated bearing on non drive end side.
Accoustic Noise
In case of motors fed by converter supply, the electromagnetically excited noise can be significantly
higher owing to the harmonic contents of the converter supply voltage.
Higher switching frequencies tend to reduce the magnetically excited noise of the motor.
Motor Applications for VFD
• Constant Torque - Crane, Hoist, Reciprocating Compressor etc.
• Variable Torque - Centrifugal Pump, Fan, Blowers etc.
• Constant Power - Metal cutting, Lathes, Coiler / Decoiler Machines etc.
• Custom built to suit customer's specific requirements.
Motors for Constant Torque application suitable for speed range of 1:10, 1:5, 1:2 etc can be provided.
Depending on the speed range, motors can be offered with forced cooling (IC 416) or in higher frame sizes.
Please check with our Sales Office for motors to be operated beyond the speed given in Table A.

Special Features of Bharat Bijlee Motors for Running on Converter Supply


Bharat Bijlee motors are provided with special impregnation system / Vacuum Pressure Impregnation,
special slot insulation paper, special phase insulation paper and dual coated winding wire to take care of the
stresses. This insulation scheme is as per the requirement of IEC 60034-18-41. For voltages higher than
500V, please refer to our sales office.
Shaft induced voltage occurs due to the use of VFD. This causes flow of currents through bearing which
can lead to premature bearing failure. Insulated bearings can be provided in frames
from 132 onwards on request. In closed loop system operations, speed feedback is obtained through
encoder mounted on the shaft of the motor. We provide encoder mounting arrangements
on non drive end side shaft of the motor on request. We require Encoder Mounting Details to check the
suitability of mounting the same on our motor (Hollow Shaft Type Encoder recommended).
Conclusion:
As explained above, motors which are required to operate with VFD supply need special design
considerations. Please refer such requirements to our sales office with load details and speed range.
We are giving herewith standard service conditions for BBL motors working on VFD supply. If the properties
/characteristics of VFD are different than those specified here, please contact sales office for necessary
selection at our end.

Standard mounting is B3. In case B5 mounting is
required, please refer to our sales office.
Additional Mechanical Features
The Slipring's at the drive end are accessible
through hinged brushes on the top after opening
the T-Box cover. The brush block assembly can
hence easily be replaced as a whole unit without
dismantling the motor. Terminals box of the motor
contains 3 terminals for stator and 3 for rotor and 2
cable entries.
Starting and Speed Control
The maximum torque (which is approx. the pull-out
torque) can be obtained for starting by correct
selection of the resistance of the controller. By
appropriately switching the resistance as the
motor picks up speed, the mean torque during
starting can be as high as 2.25 times the rated full
load torque.

keyed to it. When power is switched on, the brake
coil gets energized through the Rectifier unit. It
instantly attracts the armature disc by overcoming
the spring force. This action results in releasing of
the fan allowing the rotor to rotate freely.
When the power fails or when it is switched off, the
brake coil gets de-energized. This results in the
springs pressing the brake liner against cooling fan,
i.e. returning armature disc to its original position.
This causes almost instantaneous braking of rotor.
Fail safe condition is thus ensured.
For applications, where total load stopping time is
not very critical, A.C. side interruption can be used.
However for application where faster braking is
required, D.C. side interruption should be used.
An additional contactor interlocked with main
contactor should be used.

Storage and Handling of motors


Receipt and Handling of motors
Receipt of motors
• Inspect the condition of packaging immediately upon receipt for any damages during transportation.
Unpack motor carefully and inspect for any hidden damage or missing parts (not visible before
unpacking) before storage. A complete visual inspection of the motor must be performed after
removing the package.
All damages must be immediately photographed, documented and reported to the transporter within
24 hours, and to the insurance company and to BBL local office, (through whom the motor is
purchased), within 48 hours. This is required to maintain the time limits for filing claims. Failure to
comply with this procedure will void the product warranty.
• While reporting damage, please mention motor serial number.
• In this case, installation must not be started, till the problem is solved.
• Check if the delivery of the order is complete. (Spare parts, documents etc.)
• Check the nameplate data corresponds with the application for which, the motor will be used.
Make a special point of checking voltage and connection (delta or star)
• Rotate the shaft by hand to check free rotation.
Handling of motors
Steel cables and hoisting equipment must have capacity to bear the motor weight.
Failure to follow the following instructions, may result in the motor falling over, or slipping in the lifting
tackle. The result can be death, serious damage, or material breakage.
• When lifting the motor, the correct hoisting points, the weight of the motor and the operating capacity
of the hoisting crane must be matched. Motors packed in wooden crates must always be lifted by
their own eyebolts/lifting lugs or by a proper forklift, and must not be lifted by its wooden crates.
• For lifting the motor, only the lifting eye-bolts provided with motor, are to be used. The eyebolts are
designed for the motor weight only. Never use the eyebolts to lift the motor with additional loads, such as
pumps, gear boxes, fans or any other driven equipment.
• Use all lifting eye-boltstogether, that are provided, for sharing the load. (If motor is provided with two
eye-bolts, use both eye-bolts and not one). Ensure that the eyebolts are fully tightened upto their
supporting surface, before lifting.
• The packing (wooden crate with motor) must not be dropped. It is to be carefully placed on the floor
without impact to avoid the damage to the bearing. Jerks and jolts must be avoided.
• Do not use any other part of the motor for lifting including shaft.
• Do not use shaft projections for dragging the motor.
• Do not roll or drag the motor on the floor.
• Motors must not be kept in vertical position with external fan cowls as base.
• In vertical lifting, uncontrolled rotation of the motor must be prevented. Do not lift other equipments
with motor lifting points only.
• During movement of the motor from one place to other place, the shaft must be locked with the locking
device supplied with the motor (if any). The shaft locking device to be removed just before the
installation of the motor.
Storage instruc ons for motors
• If the motor is not installed immediately after receipt, it must remain inside its packing and stored in
a storeroom.
• For practical purposes, motor is considered to be in storage not only when it is in the storeroom but
also when:
• it has been delivered to the jobsite and is a waiting installation;
• or, It has been installed but regular operation is delayed / pending completion of plant construction;
• or, there are long, idle periods between operating cycles;
38
• or, the plant or department is shutdown.
ANNEXURE
ANNEXURE - V - V

• The recommendations given here apply to conditions commonly found in indoor storage. Personnel
responsible for care of the equipment should use good discretion in adapting these recommendations
to the particular situation. Common sense and sound safety rules need to be followed.
Indoor storage
Wholly controlled atmosphere or partially controlled atmosphere
• Storage room must be clean, dust free and dry. The room must be properly covered and closed.
• Maintain temperature in the range 20 deg to 50 deg in the storage room
• Maintain uniform temperature throughout the room (Temperature variations causes condensation
of moisture).
• Relative humidity to be 50% or less
• Ensure absence of harmful fumes and vapors, gases such as chlorine, sulfur dioxide and corrosive
agents.
• Vibration free area to avoid bearing damage.
• Space heater must be energized if temperature falls below 10˚C or humidity is more than 50% to
prevent harmful effects of moisture condensation.
• Ensure that no water dips on motor and no water accumulates under the motor.
• Ensure that all plugs originally provided are in place. (e.g. cable entry hole plugs, drain plugs and plug
in fan cowl for greasing. If plugs are missing, all the openings to be covered with an adhesive plastic cloth.
• The enclosing structure should be designed to protect the motor from flying debris or other damage
from high winds.
• Cover the motor completely in a strong, transparent plastic bag to exclude dirt, dust, moisture, and
other foreign materials. Before sealing this bag, small bags of silica-gel desiccant should be put inside
the bag, around the motor.
• Rodents, insects and other animals, like to house inside motors in search of warm surroundings or food.
Some of them attack the insulating materials. Their access to the motor must be avoided.
• Do not remove the corrosion protection from the machined surfaces like shaft and flange. These
protections must remain in place until the final assembly.
• Any damage to the painting or to the rust protections on the machined surfaces must be corrected.

Outdoor storage
• Dry climate (Conditions usually found) - Dust, sand, heat from the sun, and occasional rain or snow
• Humid climate (Conditions usually found) - Dust, rain and snow, organic (fungus) growth
• Salty and industrial atmospheres (Conditions usually found) - Moisture impregnated with salts or other
acidic / alkaline chemicals, salty dust, sand, rain or snow, fungus growth, fumes, coal and chemical
dust soot.
All precautions indicated in indoor storage to be taken. The storage location to be safe from flooding water
and mud. Also, repair all damages to the packaging before storing the motor.
Place the motor on platform or foundations to protect it against ground humidity and from sinking into the
soil. Free air circulation beneath the motor must be assured.
In addition, after the unit is covered as explained in those instructions, a shed should be erected to protect it
from direct rain, snow, and excessive direct sun heat. At a bare minimum, a heavy water- proofed cover
should be slipped over it. This cover must not be in direct contact with the motor surface. In order to ensure
free air circulation between the motor and cover, use wooden block as spacers.
Extended storage
When the motor is stored for long duration (two months to two years), before operation, it is subjected to
different atmospheric conditions, such as ambient temperature variations, moisture, corrosive vapors etc.
Empty spaces inside the motor are exposed to humidity and corrosive agents. The winding insulation
resistance may drop below acceptable value. Grease in the bearings, loses its lubricating properties. It
becomes highly risky, to start the motor after such extended storage.
39
ANNEXURE
ANNEXURE - V - V

All preventive measures described below including storage, maintenance, packaging, periodical
inspections, must be followed and recorded. This is must for having product warranty. This is applicable,
even when an operating motor is idle for two or more months.

Storage Location
In order to ensure the best storage conditions for the motor during long duration, the storage location must
strictly meet the following conditions.

Indoor storage
All precautions as per clause 3.3.1 to be followed. In addition, following points to be observed.
• The environment must present an air - filtered ventilation system.
• Protection against dirt and dust accumulation.
• Fire detection system to be available.
• The location must have power supply to the space heaters.

In case the storage location does not meet any of these requirements, BBL recommends to have additional
protections in the motor packaging during the storage period , as follows:
• Closed wooden crates or similar with proper electrical installation, providing power to the space heaters.
• If there is risk of infestation and fungus growth, the package must be protected on the site by spraying or
painting it, with proper chemical agents.
• Package proportion must be carefully executed by experienced personnel.

Outdoor storage
Outdoor storage is not recommended. In the case outdoor storage is unavoidable, follow all the steps
mentioned above at various places. Here, the motor is to be covered with water proof cover and also a shed
to be constructed to protect the motor.
In case the motor is stored for long duration and/or idle period, it is must to inspect it regularly as per plan
given in clause.

Space heaters
The space heaters provided with the motor must be kept on during storage to avoid moisture condensation
within the motor, and to keep winding insulation resistance within acceptable limits. If motor is not having
space heater, the motor has to be wrapped with an air-tight bag including sufficient amount of desiccant,
keeping the enclosed volume dry.
Space heaters must be on when ambient temperature falls below 10 deg C or relative humidity is
more than 50%.
Insulation resistance
During the storage period , motor winding insulation resistance must be measured and recorded every
month, before the motor is installed. Any drop in the insulation resistance must be investigated immediately

Exposed machined surfaces


• All exposed machined surface (e.g. shaft end and flanges) are protected with a coat of rust inhibitor when
despatched from works, which should not be taken off during normal storage periods.
• Periodic inspection of this coating is must during long duration storage. This protection film must be
reapplied at least twice a year or when removed and/or damaged.
• Protective coatcan be easily taken off by using paraffin or other petroleum solvents.

Grease lubricated bearings


• The bearings are filled with grease at the factory, for proper lubrication.

• During the storage period, every week, the shaft lock must be removed and the shaft must be rotated
(@30 rpm for minimum 15 sec.) and always finishing in a different position, in order to distribute grease
inside the bearing (grease has tendency to settle at the bottom of the housing.) and to maintain good
bearings conditions.
• After two months, the bearing covers should be removed and grease in the housing pressed with thumbs
between the races of the bearing. If any deterioration of grease is apparent, the old grease should be
removed and new grease pressed in the bearing housings.
• After 4 months of storage and before operating the motor, the old grease to be removed completely and
the bearings must be filled with fresh grease again.
• If the motor remains stored for 18 months or more, the bearings must be disassembled, cleaned,
inspected, and lubricated.
• Spare bearings (if in stock) to be given a coat of light oil or grease and packed in polythene bags for
protection against moisture.

Diagnosis of common motor troubles and their remedies


Properly installed and maintained motors, operated within the nameplate ratings and specifications, will run
trouble free for many years. Problems and premature failures often indicate input power system troubles,
poor or deteriorating mechanical installations, or malfunctions in the driven machinery. Therefore, motor
troubleshooting involves the entire system, not just the motor.

ǃǃWarning
Allow only qualified personnel to perform troubleshooting and maintenance of motors.
Be sure such technicians observe standard safety precautions.

Steps for effective troubleshooting


Determine answers for the following questions:
(1) What are the troubles and when did they first occur?
(2) If new, did the installation ever run properly? How long?
(3) If an established installation, is the trouble new or has it been occurring for years?
What changes, even if minor, occurred in the operation or maintenance of the equipment before
the trouble started?
(4) Do you have accurate meter readings of current and voltage for all three phases of the input circuit?
Such readings are needed to correctly determine the cause of most electrical troubles.
44
ANNEXURE
ANNEXURE - VII- VII

!!Warning!!
High voltage can kill
(1) Internal parts of the motor may be at line potential even when it is not rotating.
(2) When troubleshooting requires that measurements be taken with the input power on, the input
power should be turned on only when necessary and extreme caution should be taken to avoid
electric shock.
(3) Isolate your body from ground and do not touch electrically hot components. Wear dry insulating
gloves.
(4) Disconnect all input power to the drive and motor before performing any maintenance.

!!Warning !!
Moving parts can injure
(1) Do not operate the motor at speeds above the motor maximum safe speeds.
(2) Operating the motor, above maximum safe speed may cause parts to be ejected resulting in
body injury.
(3) All motor driven components must be designed by the machine builder to operate safely at the motor
maximum safe speed, listed on the motor nameplate
Information in regard to some of the common motor faults, their causes and remedies is given in the following
tables. It is recommended that a chart giving this information is kept readily available for assistance to the

Sec on 6: Troubles related to noise and vibra ons


Note: The troubles like vibration, mechanical noise and bearing noise are mostly caused by poor or deteriorating installation of the motor
base, motor, driven load, sheaves or coupling. The motor and driven load must be mounted firmly and solidly with precise alignment or
vibration will develop leading to mechanical failures. Foundations must be secure and stable. Shims must be as few in number as possible
to insure that all motor feet are mounted in the same geometrical plane. Consider tapered shims, if necessary.
These are common failures. If motors and driven load are properly mounted, these failures can be virtually eliminated.

Section 7: Troubles related to input power circuit


Note: These troubles as well as motor overloads are best identified by making following checks. Completing the entire process is also
recommended even when the problem appears to be solved with an early step. It is to be noted that, the troubles can be intermittent and
will not necessarily be identified during these checks. Knowing the history of recurring problems is crucial to arrive at final solution.

Step 1: Reset the overload relays, (if tripped) and start the motor.
Step 2: Measure the current in all three phases with the motor operating under load. If there is more than 5% deviation between phases,
immediately switch off the power. See the remedies against “unbalance currents”. If the currents are balanced, and overload relay is
tripping, then the motor is probably overloaded. Go to step 3. To confirm an overload, note the current values with respect to the
nameplate full load current value and proceed to step 4.
Step 3: Measure the voltage in all three phases with the motor off and with the motor running. Take the meter readings at the supply side
and motor side of the controller and in the motor terminal box. If the voltage is 10% (or more) above or below the motor nameplate
voltage with the motor both stopped and running, see the remedies against “ high current in all three phases”.
Step 4: Disconnect the motor from the load start the motor and measure the no load current in all three phases. If the no load current
matches the value given by motor manufacturer, but the full load current is high, the motor is overloaded.
