2 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
All personnel involved with electrical installations, either
handling, lifting, operation and maintenance, should be
well-informed and up-to-dated concerning the safety
standards and principles that govern the work and,
furthermore, they should be advised to heed them.
These motors, when incorrectly used or when poor
maintenance is performed by unqualified personnel, can
cause injury to people and/or material damage.
Therefore, it is recommended that these tasks be
undertaken by qualified personnel. Who has received
adequate training, experience, professional instruction,
knowledge of technical standard, specifications and
safety standards, knowledge about accidents prevention
and operating conditions. Furthermore, these people
must be duly authorized.
Equipment for fire extinguishing and notice of first aid
should be placed in an accessible and visible location.
2.2 UNPACKING
Prior to shipment, motors are factory-tested and supplied
in perfect operating conditions.
The adjusting and sliding surfaces are protected with
corrosion inhibitors.
Upon receipt, we recommend to check the boxes to see
if any damage has occurred during transportation.
ATTENTION
In case of any damage, contact the carrier,
insurance company and WEG. The lack of
notice will void the warranty.
When lifting the boxes, it is important to observe the
locals appropriate for this purpose as well as to check the
weight of the box and the hoist capacity.
The motors shipped in wooden boxes must be always
lifted by the eyebolts or by forklift machines and never by
the shaft. The box never can be turnedaround. Lifting and
lowering of such boxes must be done gently in order to
avoid damage to the bearings. Make a visual inspection
after the unpacking has been effected. Do not remove
the protecting grease from the shaft end neither the
stoppers from the terminal boxes. These protecting
devices should remain at their places until the installation
is finished. For motors fitted with shaft locking device, this
device must be removed, and rotate manually the rotor
several times. If damages are noticed, contact the carrier
and WEG immediately.
8 l Direct current motors
2.3 STORAGE
When motors are not immediately unpacked, boxes
should be stored in their normal upright position in a dry
temperature place, free of dust, dirt, gases, insects and
corrosive atmosphere.
Motors must be stored in places free from vibrations in
order to avoid damage to the bearings. For motors fitted
with space heaters, these accessories must be kept
switched-on. If painting has suffered any damage, this
must be repainted to avoid rusting. The same applies to
the machined surfaces when protecting grease has been
wasted.
If storage lasts for more than 2 months, brushes must be
lifted to avoid oxidation in the commutador.
NOTE
Before operating the motor, reset brushes into
the fittings.
2.3.1 Bearings
When a motor is kept in stock for a period of six months
or less, it is not necessary to effect a full inspection on the
bearings before running it.
What has to be done is to rotate manually the shaft
monthly.
However, when motor is kept in stock for more than six
months, the bearings must be regreased, before
operation. On the other hand, if motor is kept in stock for
approximately 2 year or more, bearings must be
disassembled, and washed with ether and checked. All
the old grease must be removed. After the reassembly,
bearings must be regreased of this manual.
ATTENTION
Motors fitted with shielded bearings must
have these bearings replaced when motors
are kept in stock for a period exceeding 2
years.
2.3.2 Insulation resistance
When a motor is not immediately put into operation, it
should be protected against moisture, high temperatures
and impurities in order to avoid damage to the insulation.
The winding insulation resistance must be measured
before operating the motor.
If the ambient contains high humidity, a periodical
inspection is recommended during storage. It is difficult
to determine rules for the actual insulation resistance
value of a motor as the resistance varies according to
environmental conditions (temperature, humidity) cleaning
conditions (dust, oil, grease, dirt) and condition of the
insulating material used and method of construction of
the motor. A lot of experience is required to decide when
a motor is ready for operation. Periodical records will help
to take such decision.

The following guidelines show the approximate insulation
resistance values that can be expected from a clean and
dry motor at 40ºC temperature ambient, when test
voltage is applied for a period of one minute, supplied by
the curve of figure 2.1, as per NBR 5165 Standard.
The RM insulation resistance is given by the formula:
Rm = Un + 1
Where:
Rm - Minimum insulation resistance recommended in
Mega Ohm with the winding at a temperature of 40ºC;
Un - Rated voltage of the motor in kV.
If the test is performed at a different temperature, it is
necessary to correct the reading to 40ºC by using an
insulation resistance variation curve in relation to
temperature, given by the motor itself. If this curve is not
available it is possible to use an approximate correction
given by the curve of figure 2.1, as per NBR 5165
Standard.
Figure 2.1: Coefficient of insulation resistance variation with
temperature.
www.weg.net
On new motors, lower values are sometimes obtained, as
solvents are present in the insulating varnishes which
become volatile in a later stage during normal operation.
This does not necessarily mean that the motor is not
suitable for operation once the insulation resistance will
increase after a certain period of operation.
On old motors, still in operation, higher values are
normally obtained. The comparison with values obtained
from previous tests on the same motor under identical
load, temperature and humidity conditions will be a better
indication of the insulation conditions in comparison to
the value obtained from a single test. Any sudden or high
reduction of the value requires careful attention.
The insulation resistance is normally measured with a
Megometer.
If the insulation resistance is lower than the values
obtained by the above mentioned formula, motors must
be submitted to a drying process.
2.4 HANDLING
Use only the existing eyebolts to lift the motor. Never lift
the motor by the shaft. Check the motor weight. Lifting
and lowering must be done gently in order to avoid
damage to the bearings. The eyebolts attached to
bearing housing, heat exchanger, endbells, etc, should
be used to handle these components only, not complete
motor.

3 INSTALLATION
Electric motors should be installed in locations of easy access for inspection and maintenance, specially on bearings
(relubrication), inspection of brushes, etc. If the surrounding atmosphere contains humidy, corrosive or flammable
substances or particles, it is essential to ensure an adequate degree of protection.

Under no circumstances, motors can be enclosed in boxes or covered with materials which may impede or reduce the free
circulation of cooling air. Motors fitted with external cooling must be located at least 50mm from the ground to permit free air
circulation. The air inlet and outlet should never be obstructed or reduced by conductors, pipes or other objects. The
installation site should permit conditions of air renewal at a rate of 200m³ per minute for each 100 kW of motor output.

3.1 MECHANICAL ASPECTS

3.1.1 Foundations

The motor base must be leveled and free from vibrations.

For this reason, concrete foundation is recommended.
The type of base to be built will depend on the nature of
the soil at the installation site or on the floor capacity.
When designing motor foundation, it must be taken into
consideration the fact that the motor might, occasionally,
be submitted to a torque higher than the rated torque. If
such designing is not correctly made, vibration problems
can occur in the unit (foundation, motor and driven
machine).

ATTENTION
On the concrete base, a metallic plate to
support the leveling bolt must be provided.

Steel or iron blocks, plane surfaces blocks with

anchorage devices can be fitted in the concrete
foundation to fix the motor feet as suggested in figure
3.1.
It is important that all the structure equipment are made
in such a way that they can transmit any force or torque
which may occur during the operating.

3.1.2 Types of bases
a) Concrete of bases (or fixed in the concrete bases)
As mentioned above, the concrete bases are the most
commonly used for the fixation of these motors.
The type and size of the foundation - as well as other
fixing devices for this purpose will depend on the type
and size of the motor.
b) Slide rails
When drive system is done by pulleys, the motor should
be mounted on slide rails and the lower part of the belt
must be tractioned.
The rail that stays near the drive pulley is positioned in
such a manner that the adjusting bolt be between the
motor and the driven machine. The other rail must be
positioned with the bolt in the opposite position, as
shown in figure 3.2.
Figure 3.2: Slide rail motor
The motor is bolted to the rails and set on the base.
The drive pulley is then aligned in such a way that its
center be in the same level of the driven pulley center.
Motor and driven machine shafts must be in a parallel
position. The belt should not be excessively stretched,
(see figure 3.11). After the alignment, rails are to be fixed.
c) Metallic bases
Metallic bases must have a flat surface under motor feet
in order to avoid frame deformation. The bearing housing
surface should be so determined that under the feet of
the motor one can place shims of approximately 2mm
thickness.
Motor should not be removed from their common metallic
bases for alignment; metallic bases should be leveled on
the actual foundation.
When a metallic base is used to adjust the height of the
motor shaft end with the machine shaft end, it should be
leveled on the concrete base.
After the base has been leveled, foundation studs
tightened, and the coupling checked, the metal base and
the studs are then cemented.
12 l Direct current motors
3.1.3 Alignment / leveling
The electric motor must be accurately aligned with the
driven machine, particularly in cases of direct coupling.
An incorrect alignment can cause bearing damage,
vibrations, shaft breaking and brushes sparking.
The best way to ensure correct alignment is to use dial
indicator placed on each coupling half, one reading
radially and the other axially.
In this way, simultaneous readings can be informed and
one can check any parallel (figure 3.3) or concentricity
deviations (figure 3.4) by rotating the shaft. The dial
indicator should not exceed 0.05mm. If the operator is
sufficiently skilled, he can obtain alignment with clearance
gauge and a steel ruler, providing that the couplings be
perfect and centered (figure 3.5).
Figure 3.3: Angular clearance (parallelism).
Figure 3.4: Radial clearance (concentricity) Max. 0.5 mm.
Figure 3.5: Axial clearance of 3 to 4 mm (centered bushings).
On the alignment/leveling it is important to take into
consideration the effect of the temperature over the
motor and driven machine. The different expansion levels
of the coupled machines can modify the
alignment/leveling during motor operation.
After the set is perfectly aligned either at cold or at hot,
motor must be bolted, as shown in figure 3.6. There are
instruments which use visible laser ray added by specific
computer programs that can perform and ensure high
precision alignment.

Figure 3.7: Assembly of pulleys.

DISASSEMBLY OF PULLEYS: For disassembly of

pulleys it is recommended to use the devices shown in
Figure 3.6: Bolting figure 3.8 in order not to damage the key neither shaft
surface.
ATTENTION
Bolts, nuts and washers can be supplied with
the motor, if required.

3.1.4 Couplings

a) Direct coupling
Whenever possible, it is recommended to use direct Figure 3.8: Disassembly of pulleys.
coupling due to lower cost, less space required, no belt
slippage and lower accident risk. The correct positioning of a pulley is shown in figure 3.9.
In case of speed ratio drives, it is also common to use
direct coupling with a gearbox.

ATTENTION
Align carefully the shaft ends using, whenever
possible, flexible coupling.

Figure 3.9: Correct positioning of pulley on the shaft.

b) Gearbox coupling
Poorly aligned gearbox couplings normally cause jerking RUNNING Avoid unnecessary thrusts on the bearings by
motions which provoke vibration to the coupling and to ensuring that the shafts are parallel and the pulleys
the motor. Therefore, due care must be given to correct perfectly aligned (figure 3.10).
shaft alignment, perfectly parallel in cases of straight
gears, and at the correct angle for bevel or helicoidal
gears.
Perfect gear arrangements can be checked by inserting a
strip of paper on which the teeth marks will be traced
after a single rotation.

c) Belt/pulley coupling
Belt transmission is the most commonly used when a
speed ratio is required.

ASSEMBLY OF PULLEYS: The assembly of pulleys on

shafts featured with keyway and threaded hole must be
done by inserting it halfway up to the keyway merely by
manual pressure.
On shafts without threaded hole it is recommended to
heat up the pulley to about 80ºC (figure 3.7).
Hammers should be avoided when fitting pulleys and
bearings. The fitting of bearings with the aid of hammers
causes spots in the bearing races. These initially small
spots increase with usage and can develop to a stage Figure 3.10: Correct pulley alignment.
that completely damage the bearing.

Direct current motors l 13

 www.weg.net
Laterally misaligned pulleys, when running, transmit
alternating knocks to the rotor and can damage the
bearing housing. Belt slippage can be avoided by
applying a resin type material such as rosin.
Belt tension is only required to avoid slippage during
operation (figure 3.11).
Figure 3.11: Belt tension.
When specific pulleys are required, contact WEG in order
to insure a correct designing.
Due to the existing tensions on the belts, there is a
reaction acting as radial load over the motor shaft end.
ATTENTION
When specific pulleys are required, contact
WEG in order to insure a correct designing.
Due to the existing tensions on the belts, there is a
reaction acting as radial load over the motor shaft end.
3.1.5 Motors protection
The DC motors can be supplied with temperature
detectors installed in the stator winding and/or bearings.
A proper overtemperature protection is really efficient
when the detectors are duly connected to an appropriate
control unit.
Except if specified by the customer, WEG DC Motors are
supplied with bimetallic thermal protectors to trip at
155°C (class F) in the stator winding. Overload protection
must be provided in the motor drive.
14 l Direct current motors
THERMOSTAT (BIMETALLIC)
These are bimetallic thermal detectors with normally
closed silver contacts and they trip at pre-determined
temperatures. Thermostats are series-connected or
independent according to the connection diagram.
Electrical characteristics:
Rated voltage: 250V - 50/60Hz.
Current: 6,3 A - Power factor: 1.0.
Max. Load:8,2 A- 500 V.
10 A - 250 V.
12 A – 110 V.
Useful life: 10.000 cycles.
THERMISTORES (PTC or NTC)
They are thermal detectors composed of semi-
conductors which sharply change their resistance when
reaching a set temperature. They are series-connected or
independent according to the connection diagram.
NOTE
Thermostats and thermistors are connected
to a control unit that cuts off the motor power
supply or switches on an alarm system, in
response to the thermistors reaction.
RESISTANCE TEMPERATURE DETECTORS (Pt100-
RTD)
RTD's are resistance thermal detectors usually made of
platinum.
Basically, RTD's operate on the principle that the
electrical resistance of a metallic conductor varies linearly
with the temperature. The detector terminals are
connected to a control panel, usually fitted with a
temperature gauge.
Normally WEG Motors are supplied with one RTD per
phase and one per bearing where these protective
devices are regulated for alarm and subsequent switch-
off. For extra safety reasons, it is possible to fit two RTD's
per phase.

3.2 COMMISSIONING
3.2.1 Preliminary inspection
Before starting a DC motor for the first time, or after long
period of standstill, check the following items:
1. Is motor clean? Were all packing materials and
protection elements removed?
2. Are coupling elements in perfect conditions and duly
tightened and greased, where required?
3. Is alignment correctly made? (as per item 3.1.2).
4. Are bearings duly lubricated for perfect operation?
(as per item 4.8.2)
www.weg.net
5. Are brushes perfectly set on the commutator and
freely moving in the brush pocket with correct
pressure?
6. Is rotation direction of the independent ventilation
correct?
7. Is air inlet free of any obstacle?
8. Is air filter clean?
9. Is insulation resistance within acceptable and safe
levels?
10. Are protection devices connected and operating
correctly?
11. Make sure all power supply cables, bolts and nuts
are firmily tightened for perfect contact. Besides that,
electrical connection must be made as indicated on
the connection diagram.
3.2.2 Operation
Forced ventilated motors must have free air circulation
before starting them. Check for correct fan rotation
direction. If not, reverse two power supply leads of the
cooling motor. Firstly, apply voltage to field, then apply to
armature, at no load if possible.
Motor must start smoothly, without sparking or excessive
noise. When motor is accelerated for the first time, check
if abnormal noises occur. Furthermore, motor can not
present vibrations or signs of overheating. All devices and
measuring and control instruments must be constantly
checked for any deviation. When motor is operated with
load hooked up, commutation must be carefully checked.
If sparking occur, find the cause and fix it immediately
before damaging the commutador. Under normal
operation, check for excessive brushes wear, sparking or
marks on the commutator.
ATTENTION
Check whether load required by the motor
complies with rated characteristics. If not,
contact WEG for analysis of quality and
quantity of grease in relation to the service
duty.
NOTE
When motor is switched-off, make sure
armature is de-energized before than field. If
done in the opposite way, motor can get
totally damaged as rotors can overfeed due to
lack of field.

4 MAINTENANCE
A well-programmed maintenance schedule of DC motors, when correctly used, includes a periodical inspection of insulation
levels, bearing lubrication and useful life, vibration levels, wear of brushes and commutator as well as brush holder
conditions.
Frame must be kept clean, free of dust, oil and dirt in order to make the cooling process easier.
In case one of the above items are not followed accordingly, you might have unexpected stops of the equipment. Inspection
cycles depend on the type of motor and the conditions under which it operates.

DANGER
Before touching any internal part of the machine, make sure it is de-energized.

4.1 CLEANLINESS/INSULATION
RESISTANCE
A regular inspection at intervals based on the type of
service is the best way to avoid unexpected and anti-
economical stops.
Motor should be kept clean, free of dust, dirt and oil
through periodical checking. Special attention must be
given to brush holders and terminals. Brushes must be
removed and cleaned to ensure free moving in the brush
pocket. Dust and dirt on the windings can be removed
with a hard brush (not metallic), and oil can be removed
with a suitable solvent.
Filters must be cleaned regularly as well as felts. In case of
air-water heat exchangers, radiator tubes must be cleaned
periodically and kept free of any obstracting object to
facilitate air circulation. Commutator must be kept free of
dust, oil, etc.
Insulation resistance must be checked regularly to monitor
the windings. It is recommended to use a 500V Megger.
A winding presenting an insulation value equal to below
formula is considered satisfactory:
RM = Un+1, where Un in kV (as per item 2.3.2).
4.2 BRUSH HOLDERS
Brush holders must permit free sliding of brushes.
However, excessive clearance can cause vibration and
further sparking.
Normally, spring pressure ranges from 200 to 250 g/cm²,
except for special cases. The distance between brush-
holder and commutator surface is approximately 2mm to
avoid rupture of brushes and damage to commutator.
Brush holders are adjusted at the factory to the optimums
operating position. This position (neutral zone) is indicated
by marks in the brush-holder. Once brush holder has been
adjusted, position should not be changed at it is used for
any load value. If a dismantling of the set is required, then
follow the mark when assembling it.
4.3 NEUTRAL ZONE ADJUSTMENT
Quando for substituído ou recondicionado o rotor, é
provável que a posição do porta-escovas tenha que ser
alterado. Para ajustar as escovas na posição neutra
(calagem das escovas) proceder da seguinte forma
(método prático):
COARSE ADJUSTMENT
1. Unscrew the bolts that fasten the brush-holder ring;
2. Energize armature (50 to 80% of rated current for 30
sec. max.); field remains switched-off. To limit current,
use a low voltage such as battery.
ATTENTION
The maximum time of 30 sec. must be
respected in order not to damage
commutator.
3. In case neutral zone is disadjusted trents to turn. For
adjustment of neutral zone, turn brush holder's ring in
the reverse side to the motor turn direction;
4. When rotor remains stop, then neutral zone will be
adjusted.

NOTE
If you turn brush-holder ring to the rightside
and rotor turns in the opposite direction, then
the commutation pole leads, which are
connected to the brush holder, are reserved.
Connect leads correctly and proceed as per
items 1, 2 and 3 above.

Figure 4.1: Brush holders

18 l Direct current motors

 www.weg.net

FINE ADJUSTMENT

1. After adjusting neutral zone (coarse adjustment),

connect motor with rated voltage (rated voltage, if
possible);
2. Check both rotation directions. Difference can not be
bigger than 1%;
3. In case difference is bigger than 1%, check to see in
which direction the speed is higher. To decrease
speed, turn brush holder ring in the same direction of
the motor turn;
4. To increase speed, at a certain direction, turn brush
holder ring to the opposite direction of the rotor turn.

4.4 CHECKING OF COMMUTATION

A well-succeed commutation is understood as the quality
of commutation which does not affect commutator and
brushes, neither motor operation.
Absence of sparking does not mean assencially a good
commutation.
To verify commutation, you must hook up load to the
motor and check for sparking trying to see if this is normal
or not. If abnormal sparking is noticed, from level 1¾ (see
table 4.2), find cause(s) and eliminate it. Sparking
originated from unsatisfactory commutation can have
mechanical causes such as motor vibration, commutator
deformation, incorrect brushes pressure, etc. Also
electrical causes such as poor contact between brushes
and commutator, problems on the commutation pole
winding or in the armature, current peaks, disadjusted air
gap, etc.. and physic-chemical aspects such as excessive
air humidity or steams or corrosive gases or oil or dusts on
the commutator can generate sparking.
The air gap of commutation poles (for extractable pole
motors) is adjusted at the factory, same as neutral zone.

ATTENTION
If poles must be extracted, then original air
gap have to be respected accordingly at the
time of the assembly. Also brush holder ring
must be adjusted to neutral position (see
items 4.3 and 4.4).
Figure 4.2: Sparking level
4.5 BRUSHES
There is a factory-specified brush type for each DC motor
and you should always use same type and quantity of
brushes as supplied originally (pay attention to item 4.5.1).
Never use assorted brushes of different types.
The type of brushes for DC Motors are determined based
on the motor speed, voltage, current, etc.

NOTE
Any change of type and quantity of brushes
must be done under instruction of WEG as
different types of brushes cause performance
alterations to the machine in operation.

Direct current motors l 19

 www.weg.net
Brushes must be constantly checked during operation.
Special attention should be given to the following items:
ƒ Make sure all brushes are of same type;
ƒ Make sure brush terminals are of same length, Neither
too short nor to long to allow free sliding;
ƒ Check for free movement of brushes in the pocket.
Any rough particles in the internal surface should be
eliminated;
ƒ Set the brushes by using sandpaper placed between
commutator surface and brushes with the rough side
directed to the brush contact surface. Use also mile;
ƒ To control wear of brushes, follow the mark at the
lateral face (axial) figure 4.3) The minimum size
brushes can have for not damaging the commutator is
the one where the wear mark is still visible;
ƒ When replacing brushes, always change the whole
set;
ƒ When replacing worn brushes for others of same
granulation, the patina existing on the commutator
should not be removed, if this has a normal aspect;
ƒ However, when replacing brushes by others of
different quality, patina existing on the commutator
must be removed by using fine sandpaper.
4.5.1 Suitability of brushes to load conditions
The performance of brushes is directly related to the
conditions under which motors operate. If permanent
output required by the motor is lower than the rated
output, then it is necessary to adjust brushes based on
the operation load conditions.
Figure 4.3: Indication of brush dimensions.
ATTENTION
If above procedures are not followed
accordingly, brushes can have excessive
wear, marks on the commutator races as well
as damage to motor insulation which leads to
complete motor damage.
20 l Direct current motors
NOTE
WEG DC Motors are manufactured to work
with rated load condition or according to the
load informed on request by the customer. If
the load (operation rated current) applied to
the motor are not in accordance with the
rated characteristics of such motor (above or
below), the brushes adequation is liability of
the user.
ATTENTION
WEG is not responsible for the brushes
adequation for loads different from the
specified.
4.6 COMMUTATOR
The good condition of the commutator is fundamental for
the performance of DC motors. Hence, periodical checks
are required.
Commutator must be kept free of oil and grease and the
curvature between the blades must be cleaned.
Under normal operation condition, the existing on the
commutator will present a dark brown color or slightly
black. Shining or rough surface indicates that the type of
brushes must be replaced. On the other hand, a black
and thick coloring, which usually occurs due to long
overloads with humidity, indicates that there is excessive
patina on the commutator. In these cases, patina should
be removed by using sandpaper (n°220) or an appropriate
milling wheel (artificial).
Commutator leaves the factory already polished and the
patina is pre-formed during motor test. So it is not
required to grind the running surface before operating the
motor.
Wear of commutator normally occurs uniformly a long the
races. If any irregular wear is noticed on the commutator
surface, contact WEG immediately.
The commutator wear should be measured on the race
worn by the brushes and on the free point not used. If the
difference is bigger than 0.1mm, commutator must be
repaired.
In case height difference between any two adjacent
phases is bigger than 0.005mm, commutator must be
machined. Commutator validation can not exceed 0.1mm.
The repair of a commutator consist on a fine machining
and a further polishing of mica blades. The table below
indicates the minimum diameter “worn” that commutator
can have after successive machining. When diameter is
below that, commutator must be replaced.

ATTENTION
Standard grease used on WEG motors is Polyurea-based POLIREX EM (Supplier: ESSO). For relubricated
bearings (motors of frames 160 and above), the specification of this grease as well as lubrication intervals are
supplied on the bearing nameplate attached to motor frame.

4.7.1 Quality and quantity of grease
Correct lubrication is important for proper bearing operation. It
means to say the grease must be applied correctly and in
sufficient amount. On the other hand, insufficient or excessive
greasing is prejudicial.
Excessive greasing causes overheating due to high resistance
encountered by the rotating parts and, in particular, by the
compacting of the lubricant and its eventual loss of lubricating
qualities.
This can cause leakage with the grease penetrating into the
motor winding, commutator rings or brushes.
A lithium base and grease must use for lubrication of electric
motor bearings. This grease should never be mixed with sodium
or calcium base grease.
If this procedure is not possible due to existing parts near
the nipple (pulleys, etc), which can be harmful to the
operator, the following procedure should be followed:
ƒ Inject about half the estimated amount of grease and
run the motor at full speed for approximately one
minute;
ƒ Switch off the motor and inject the remaining grease.
ATTENTION
Never mix greases with different base
components.
Example: A calcium based grease must not
be mixed with a polyurea based grease.

4.7.3 Replacement of bearings
Bearings should not be removed from the shaft, unless
this is absolutely necessary. Shaft should not suffer any
knock or shock as they can cause marks on bearing
races.
These marks, although invisible with naked eye, can result
in noisy bearings and quick bearing wear.
Areas poorly sealed causing penetration of dust, oil, water
or steam must be fixed.
Motor must be cooled in accordance with specified air
flow.
4.8.1 Air filters for DNF and DCF models
The DC Motors provided with independent forced
ventilation have an air filter in inlet air to the fan, to avoid
dust and surrounding air particles to come into the motor
(see the figure below).

Filter (filtering blanket – Class G-4)

Figure 4.5: Bearings extractor

Providing suitable tooling is employed, disassembly of

bearings is not difficult (see bearing extractor with 3 grips
in figure 4.5).
The extractor grips must be applied to the sidewall of the
inner ring to be stripped, or to an adjacent part.
To ensure perfect functioning and no injury to the bearing
parts, it is essential that the assembly be done under
conditions of complete cleanliness and by skilled
personnel. New bearings should not be removed from
their packages until they are assembled. Prior to fitting a
new bearing, ascertain that the shaft has no rough edges
or signs of hammering.
During assembly, bearings cannot be submitted to direct
blows. To make the assembly easier, it is recommended
to heat up (inductive heater) the bearing. The aid used to
press or strike the bearings should be applied to the inner
ring.
4.8 COOLING SYSTEM
Figure 4.6: Air filters model (DNF and DCF)
ƒ Air filters must be inspected regularly.
ƒ The reduction of pressure in the filters due to
environment impurities must be constantly observed.
ƒ The filtering blankets can be cleaned with air jet or,
depending on the dirt degree, washed with water
and average detergent. In case the filter is
impregnated with dust and grease, it is necessary to
wash it with gasoline, trichloroethylene or hot water
with P3 additive.
ƒ All filters must be dried after the cleanness avoinding
to wrench them.
ƒ If necessary, replace the filter.

Based on the type of cooling system, WEG DC motors 4.8.2 Air filters for DNA, DCA, DNW and DCW
can be divided in several groups as follows: models
ƒ Self-cooling (DNS/DCS type);
ƒ Forced cooling (DNF/DCF and DNX/DCX types);
ƒ Without cooling (DNE type); Filter
ƒ Air-air heat exchanger (DNA+DCA type);
ƒ Air-water heat exchanger (DNW+DCW type).

Rotation direction of the fan must be checked (following

the indicating arrow). An operation with reverse rotation
reduces considerably the air flow resulting in motor
overheating. Therefore, any object that can impede free air
circulation internally and externally should be eliminated. In
case of air-air heat exchanger motors which can be
supplied with thermostats, air flow detectors, filters, etc.,
these should be tested for perfect operation. On air-water
heat exchanger motors, make sure correct water flow Figura 4.7: Air filters model (DNW and DCW)
specified for radiators is circulating accordingly.
Forced cooling motors, when cooling is made by ducts,
any impurity accumulated inside these cooling ducts
during assembly services (maintenance or in operation)
must be removed before operating the motor. Motor
requires pure and humid air (not totally dry as this can
damage the brushes).
