6.1 Electrical characteristics
6.1.1 Suitability for operating with an inverter
DR.. series AC motors and AC brakemotors can be operated on inverters thanks to
the high quality windings and insulation material with which they are equipped as
standard. Please also refer to the "Drive selection – controlled motor (2 179)".
6.1.2 Frequency
SEWEURODRIVE AC motors are designed for a line frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz on
request. The technical data in this motor catalog is based on a line frequency of 50 Hz
as standard.
A corresponding design is available for DRS.. and DRE.. motors that can be operated
on both a 50 Hz and 60 Hz grid: the global motor. This allows different regional electri-
cal regulations to be complied with in a single motor. In particular, it brings together
the different national regulations on minimum efficiency levels. See the "The global
motor" (2 45) chapter.

of 50 Hz.
The motors are also available for grids with a frequency of 60 Hz. The standard and
energy-efficient designs are implemented in precisely the same manner.
Regional regulations, such as NEMA MG1 (USA), CSA C22.2 (Canada) or ABNT
(Brazil) and others are complied with.
The power assignment differs between the 60 Hz and 50 Hz motors for some sizes.
Power ratings with a local market significance and which are outside of the IEC series
are taken into account. Example: a motor with 3.7 kW / 5 hp is included as well as a
4.5 kW / 6 hp motor.

6.2 Thermal characteristics
6.2.1 Thermal classes pursuant to IEC / EN60034-1 and IEC 62114
In addition to motor standard IEC / EN 60034-1, the IEC 62114 also describes the
thermal class designs and identifications. They define the limit overtemperature based
on a maximum ambient temperature of +40 °C and a reserve of 10 K or 15 K for po-
tential voltage tolerances.
A number identification is required. The addition of a long-standing letter in brackets is
permitted. SEW-EURODRIVE identifies the motors using a combination of numbers
and letters.
Thermal class SEW identification Limit overtemperature in K (permit-
ted heating at the rated torque)
130 130 (B) 80 K
155 155 (F) 105 K
180 180 (H) 125 K
The various motor measurements result in different basic thermal class designs.

DRS.. (two speed) Dahlander winding 130 (B), occasionally 155 (F)
separate winding 130 (B)
DRE.. and DRP.. 130 (B)
DRL.. 155 (F)
DRM.. 155 (F)
The DRS.., DRE.. and DRP.. motors can also be built and delivered in higher thermal
classes 155 (F) and 180 (H). In some cases, mounted options require a higher basic
thermal class design.
DRL.. servomotors and DRM.. torque motors are not available in thermal class 180
(H), as the entire motor would then reach prohibited temperatures in the gaskets, ball
bearings and bearing lubricants. The reasons for this decision are as follows:
the non-ventilated rated operation at a standstill for the DRM.. torque motors
the constant ventilation of the fan-cooled DRL.. servomotors in inverter mode.
6.2.2 Power reduction
The rated power PN of a motor depends on the ambient temperature and the altitude.
The rated power stated on the nameplate applies for an ambient temperature of 40 °C
and a maximum installation altitude of 1,000 m above sea level. The rated power must
be reduced according to the following formula in the case of higher ambient tempera-
tures or altitudes:
PNred = PN × fT × fH
The following diagrams show the power reduction depending on the ambient tempera-
ture and installation altitude.

6.2.3 Operating modes
Motor standard IEC / EN 60034-1: 2011-02 defines the following operating modes,
among other things.
Designation
of the operat-
ing mode
Text explanation
S1 Continuous duty: Operation with a constant load.
Operation at a constant load, with a duration long enough for the
machine to reach a steady thermal condition.
S2 Short-time duty: Operation with a constant load and idling time.
Operation at a constant load for a time which is less than the time
required for reaching a steady thermal condition. The subsequent
standstill time when the windings are de-energized is long enough
for the motor temperature to deviate less than 2K from the tempera-
ture of the cooling agent. S2 is supplemented by the operating time
in minutes.
S3 Periodic intermittent duty: without affecting the starting procedure.
This duty is a sequence of identical duty cycles, with each cycle in-
cluding a period of operation at constant load and a standstill period
with de-energized windings. The starting current does not have any
significant effect on the temperature rise. S3 is supplemented by the
relative cyclic duration factor in %.
S6 Periodic cycle: continuous periodic operation.
This duty is a sequence of identical cycles, with each cycle including
a period of operation at constant load and a period of idle time.
There is no standstill period in which the windings are de-energized.
S6 is supplemented by the relative time under load in %.
S9 Non-periodic cycle: non-periodic load and speed changes.
Operation with usually non-periodic changes in load and speed with-
in the permitted operating range. In this cycle, overloads often occur
that significantly exceed the reference load.
A constant load in line with duty type S1 is selected as the reference
value for the overload for this duty type.
INFORMATION
S1 continuous duty is normally assumed when operating the motor on an inverter. In
the case of a high number of cycles per hour, it might be necessary to assume S9
intermittent duty.

Determining the relative CDF
The cyclic duration factor (CDF) is the ratio between the period of loading and the du-
ration of the duty cycle. The cycle duration is the sum of the switch-on times and the
de-energized rest periods. A typical value for the cycle duration is ten minutes.
cdf = Total number of times of operation (t1 + t2 + t3)

Power increasing factor K
Unless specified otherwise and indicated on the nameplate, the rated power of the
motor refers to duty type S1 (100 % cdf) pursuant to IEC / EN 60034. If a motor de-
signed for S1 and 100 % cdf is operated in mode S2 "short-time duty" or S3 "intermit-
tent duty", the rated power can be multiplied by the power increasing factor "K" speci-
fied on the nameplate and the motor can be loaded beyond the rated points accord-
ingly.

6.2.4 Thermal monitoring
In accordance with the standard, two fundamental states are taken into account when
monitoring a motor against thermal overload.
Thermal overload with gradual change
If a motor is exposed to a thermal overload with a gradual rise in temperature, the
thermal protection system must prevent a rise in the winding temperature over the fol-
lowing values.
Thermal classification Maximum winding temperature
130 (B) 145 °C
155 (F) 170 °C
180 (H) 195 °C
Possible causes could be:
Failure of the cooling or the cooling system due to excessive dust in the cooling
ducts or the cooling fins on the motor housing.
Reduction in the air volume due to the partial covering of the fan grille.
Renewed drawing in of heated cooling air.
An excessive rise in the ambient temperature or the coolant temperature.
Gradually rising mechanical overload.

Voltage drop, overvoltage or asymmetry in the motor supply over an extended peri-
od.
Excessive operating time for a motor rated for intermittent duty.
Frequency deviations.
Thermal overload with rapid change
If a motor is exposed to a thermal overload with a rapid rise in temperature, the ther-
mal protection system must prevent a rise in the winding temperature over the follow-
ing values.
Thermal classification Maximum winding temperature
130 (B) 225 °C
155 (F) 240 °C
180 (H) 260 °C
Possible causes could be:
Motor blockage.
Phase failure.
Start-up under abnormal conditions, e.g. with excess mass moment of inertia, in-
sufficient voltage or abnormally high load torque.
Sudden and marked rise in the load.
Repeated start-up within a short space of time.

Determining the right motor protection
Selecting the correct protection device is a significant factor in determining the opera-
tional reliability of the motor. We distinguish between protection devices that are cur-
rent-dependent and those that depend on the motor temperature.
Current-dependent protection devices that are generally operated from the control
cabinet, include:
• Fuses
or
Motor overload circuit breakers.
Temperature-dependent protection devices in the winding are
PTC thermistors (thermistor sensors)
or
Bimetallic switches (thermostats).
PTC thermistors or bimetallic switches respond when the maximum permitted winding
temperature is reached. The advantage is that temperatures are recorded where they
actually occur.
Fuses Fuses do not protect the motor from overload. They are exclusively used as
short-circuit protection and may detect a motor blockage, as this condition is
similar to a short-circuit on the terminals.
Motor overload circuit
breaker
Motor circuit breakers offer adequate protection against overload in standard
operation with a low starting frequency, brief start-ups and starting currents that
are not excessive. The motor circuit breaker is set to the rated motor current.
Motor protection switches are not adequate as the sole means of protection giv-
en switching operation with a high starting frequency (> 60 / h) and for heavy
starting. In these cases we recommend to use a positive temperature coefficient
thermistor TF in addition.
PTC thermistor Three positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistors TF (PTC, characteristic
curve according to DIN 44080) are connected in series in the motor and con-
nected from the terminal box to an inverter input or to a trip switch in the control
cabinet.
Motor protection with positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistors (SEW
designation /TF) provide comprehensive protection against thermal overload.
Motors protected in this way can be used for high inertia starting, switching and
braking operation as well as with fluctuating power supplies. A motor circuit
breaker is usually installed in addition to the TF. SEWEURODRIVE recom-
mends using motors equipped with TF for inverter operation.
Bimetallic switch Three bimetallic switches (SEW designation /TH), connected in series in the
motor, are integrated directly into the motor monitoring circuit from the terminal
box. Due to the size and the insulation required for the motor winding, the TH
does not reach the reaction speed of the PTC thermistor.
The switching hysteresis may not permit a motor switching frequency depend-
ing on the design.

Starting frequency
Catalog – AC Motors DR.71 - 315, DT56, DR63 137
6.3 Starting frequency
A motor is usually rated according to its thermal loading. In many applications the mo-
tor is started only once (S1 = continuous running duty = 100 % cyclic duration factor).
The power demand calculated from the load torque of the driven machine is the same
as the rated motor power.
6.3.1 High starting frequency
Many applications call for a high starting frequency at low counter-torque, such as for
a travel drive. In this case, it is not the power demand that is the decisive factor in de-
termining the size of the motor, but rather the number of times the motor has to start
up. Frequent starting means the high starting current flows every time, leading to dis-
proportionate heating of the motor.
The windings become overheated if the heat absorbed is greater than the heat dissi-
pated by the motor ventilation system. The thermal load capacity of the motor can be
increased by selecting a suitable thermal classification or by means of forced cooling
(see the "Thermal characteristics" (2 129) chapter).
6.3.2 No-load starting frequency Z0
SEWEURODRIVE specifies the permitted starting frequency of a motor as the no-
load starting frequency Z0 at 50 % cyclic duration factor. This value indicates the num-
ber of times per hour that the motor can accelerate the mass moment of inertia of its
rotor up to speed without counter-torque at 50 % cyclic duration factor.
If an additional mass moment of inertia of a load has to be accelerated or if an addi-
tional load torque occurs, the run-up time of the motor will increase. Increased current
flows during this run-up time. This means the motor is subjected to increased thermal
load and the permitted starting frequency is reduced.

6.3.3 Permitted starting frequency of the motor
The permitted starting frequency Z of a motor in cycles/hour can be calculated using
the following formula:
Z = Z0 × KJ × KM × KP
You can determine the factors KJ, KM and KP using the following diagrams:
Depending on the addition-
al moment of inertia
Depending on the counter-
torque at startup
Depending on the static
power and the cyclic dura-
tion factor (cdf)
3980481035
JX = Total of all external mass mo-
ments of inertia in relation to the
motor axis
MH = Acceleration torque motor
JZ = Mass moment of inertia flywheel
fan
Pstat = Power requirement after
start-up (static power)
JM = Mass moment of inertia of the
motor
PN = Rated motor power
ML = Counter-torque during startup %cdf = cyclic duration factor
Example
Brakemotor: DRS71M4 BE1
No-load starting frequency Z0 = 11000 1/h
1. (JX + JZ) / JM = 3.5 : KJ = 0.2
2. ML / MH = 0.6 : KM = 0.4
3. Pstat / PN = 0.6 and 60 % cdf : KP = 0.65
Z = Z0 × KJ × KM × KP = 11000 1/h × 0.2 × 0.4 × 0.65 = 572 1/h
The cycle duration amounts to 6.3 s.
The switch-on time amounts to 3.8 s.
6.3.4 Permitted work done by the brake
If you are using a brakemotor, you have to check whether the brake is approved for
use with the required duty type. Please also refer to the information in the "Permitted
braking work of the BE brake during working brake actions (2 376)" or the "Permit-
ted braking work of the BE brake in case of an emergency stop (2 385)" chapters.

6.4.2 Vibration class
The motors comply with vibration class A. If special requirements for the mechanical
running smoothness exist, 2-, 4-, or 6-pole motors without add-ons (no brake, forced
cooling fan, encoder, etc.) can be delivered in a low-vibration design in vibration class
B.
For vibration classes A or B, the motor rotors are always dynamically balanced with a
half key.

6.4.3 Vibration stress
The normal motor setup requires a vibration-free attachment and duty type. Make sure
that the supports are even, the foot or flange mounting is correct and if there is direct
coupling, align with precision. Resonances between the rotational frequency and the
double network frequency caused by the structure are to be avoided.
Only install the (gear)motor in the mounting position specified on the nameplate on a
level, vibration-free and torsionally rigid support structure. Align the (gear)motor and
the driven machine carefully in order to prevent the output shaft from being exposed to
unacceptable strain. Pay attention to the permitted overhung and axial loads and
avoid impacts on the shaft end when applying transmission elements. We recommend
heating the elements prior to assembly.
If all of these requirements cannot be ensured in the application, the motors can be
delivered in a design for vibration stress.
Vibration level 1 (VL1) ensures that the motors are able to deal with an external influ-
ence. The values in the following table are based on standardized information pur-
suant to DIN ISO 10816-1.
Motor size Periodic vibrations Shock stress
1g = 9.81 m/s²
DR.71 – DR.132 Effective vibration speed ≤ 4.5 mm/s Maximum acceleration = 10 g
DR.160 – DR.315 Effective vibration speed ≤ 7.1 mm/s Maximum acceleration = 15 g
If you require a drive in line with VL1, or if the required values exceed the information

6.4.4 Vibration monitoring
External influences can gradually lead to the failure of important motor functions, such
as defects in the bearings. In particular, for motors with higher power ratings, the in-
vestments can be maintained by preventive maintenance and inspection. Vibration
monitoring supports the timely detection of the need for maintenance.
SEW-EURODRIVE provides a mounting adapter for vibration recorders and tapped
holes for SPM measuring nipples.
Tapped holes to mount the measuring nipple can be applied on the A- and B-side in
the flanges and covers of motor sizes DR.160 – 315.

Please contact SEWEURODRIVE if required.
6.4.5 Shaft ends
The A-side shaft ends of the foot- and/or flange-mounted motor design are usually de-
livered with a keyway pursuant to DIN 6885 Sheet 1 (ISO 773). The shaft ends can
also be delivered smooth and without a key and keyway on request.
Motors are balanced with a half key as standard, please also refer to the "Vibration
class" (2 139) chapter.
In particular, when replacing older motors, there may be a need to balance the motors
with a full key in order to continue using the existing transmission and connecting ele-
ments, such as couplings.
The full-key balancing must be specified in the order if required. SEW-EURODRIVE
identifies motor rotors balanced in this manner with a "V" on the front shaft end face in
line with the standard regulations.
Whether balanced with a full- or half-key, the motors are always delivered with full
keys, which are secured against loss during transport.

The special form of the A-side shaft end for direct mounting to the SEW gear units is
the pinion shaft end. A standardized diameter is provided depending on the number of
poles, power and motor size. Smaller dimensions must be precisely inspected with the
application data. Larger pinion shaft ends limit the potential reduction ratio variations,
but are required in rare cases due to the high dynamic loads.
6.4.6 Integral motors
If the motor or gear unit is replaced for a SEW-EURODRIVE gearmotor, the following
needs to be observed:
To ensure an oil-tight reassembly, SEW-EURODRIVE recommends using the sealant
included in the delivery.
Both the gear unit housing and the motor flange are made from aluminum as well as
gray cast iron. This must be noted during assembly.
6.4.7 Flange-mounted motors
The flange-mounted motors in the DR.. modular motor system are available in three
different specifications.
Flange-mounted design with metric through bore, also referred to as B5 motors in
the standard for the basic design.
Flange-mounted design with metric thread, also referred to as B14 motors in the
standard for the basic design.
Flange-mounted design with inch thread, also referred to as C-Face in the US
standard for the basic design.
The regulations for the metric flange dimensions are provided in IEC 72-1, while the
dimensions for inch flanges are provided in MENA MG1.
Flange-mounted motor in possible sizes
IM B5 design DR.71 – DR.315
IM B14 design DR.71 – DR.100
C-Face design DR.71 – DR.80
All motor flanges pursuant to standard IEC 72-1, also generally referred to as IEC mo-
tors, are produced from gray cast iron (GG20).
If the dimensions of the metric flange are also designed for the respective motor pow-
er in the size in line with EN 50347, this is indicated as follows in the catalog designa-
tion:
For B5 motors, with /FF.
For B14 motors, with /FT.
For flanges that deviate from EN, with /FL.
The inch flanges pursuant to C-Face are identified with /FC in the SEW catalog desig-
nation.
The parallel design as a flange- and foot-mounted design is possible for flanges with
metric measurements. These combinations have their own type and catalog designa-
tions.

6.4.8 Foot-mounted motors
The foot-mounted motor design follows a range of construction principles:
Aluminum bed plates for sizes DR.71 – DR.132.
Two single gray cast iron feet for sizes DR.160 – DR.315.
As standard, the only parts of the motor that are treated are the sides and surfaces to
which the bed plate/feet are connected. A retroactive modification to attach the bed
plate/feet to another side of the motor is generally not possible without great expense.
If the required position of the bed plate/feet is not in place when ordering, all sides of
the motor can be machined to attach the bed plate/feet at the factory for DR.71 132
and DR.250/280 motors. This means that the customer can freely select the position
of the bed plate/feet.
When ordering the DR.250/280, it is possible to specify if the feet should be delivered
unattached or attached. SEW-EURODRIVE identifies this decision by attaching the
letter A or B to the selected foot-mounted design.
Example:

6.4.9 Oil seals
The motors are constructed as flange-mounted motors, gearmotors or integral motors
with oil seals. In the standard designs, nitrite butadiene rubber (NBR) oil seals are
used.
Fluorocarbon rubber (FKM) oil seals can also be used up to a lower temperature limit
of -25 °C.
The following motors are constructed using fluorocarbon rubber (FKM) oil seals in the
series design up to a minimum temperature of -20 °C.
2-pole motors
4-pole motors
For gearmotors, the lubricant also influences the oil seal.

6.5 Mounting positions
The motor standard IEC 60034-7 only recognizes mounting positions that are rotated
or tilted within a 90° grid, please also refer to the "Motor design designation" (2 89)
chapter.
6.5.1 Inclined mounting positions
In most cases, the defined and established positions in line with the standard are suffi-
cient. The standard does not recognize inclined mounting positions.
The motors are also available for inclined mounting positions if the initial design, target
design and the angle are specified. There is a restriction for two position specifica-
tions. Further rotation towards a third position is not possible.
Example: IM B3 → IM V5: with an angle of 40°
SEW-EURODRIVE confirms the permissibility of the inclined mounting position by pro-
viding the following information on the nameplate and the order confirmation in line
with the data specified by the customer:
B3/V5/40°
The mounting position-dependent designs on the motor side are identified, defined
and attached depending on this information, e.g. the condensation drain holes.
If a gearmotor is delivered for an inclined mounting position, the lubricant quantities
and the placement of the oil fittings are adapted accordingly.
Any application that deviates from the specification may only be performed in coordi-
nation with SEW-EURODRIVE.
6.5.2 Moving mounting position
Depending on the application, it may be necessary for the DR. motor to cyclically
and/or permanently switch between two mounting positions. This situation is also not
described in the standard.
The motors are also available for moving mounting positions if the initial design, target
design and the angle are specified. There is a restriction for two position specifica-
tions. A further switching movement towards a third position is not possible.
Example: IM B3 → IM V5: with a starting angle of 10°, with an end angle of 80°
SEW-EURODRIVE confirms the permissibility of the moving mounting position by pro-
viding the following information on the nameplate and the order confirmation in line
with the data specified by the customer:
B3/V5/10-80°
The mounting position-dependent designs on the motor side are identified, defined
and attached in multiple position, if necessary, depending on this information, e.g. the
condensation drain holes.
If a gearmotor is delivered for a moving mounting position, the lubricant quantities and
the placement of the oil fittings are adapted accordingly.
Any application that deviates from the specification may only be performed in coordi-
nation with SEW-EURODRIVE.
Please also contact SEW-EURODRIVE for moving mounting positions with angles
over 90°.

Maximum speeds
Catalog – AC Motors DR.71 - 315, DT56, DR63 145
6.6 Maximum speeds
The duty cycle of motors and gearmotors on the 50 Hz and 60 Hz grid will never reach
a critical value, if you follow the information and regulations described in this chapter.
The maximum speed is irrelevant for multi-speed motors and brakemotors. The "Drive
selection of pole-changing motors" ( 2 170) chapter covers the torque behavior of
this drive type.
For electric motors that operate on a frequency inverter, the maximum torque and the
maximum speed must be viewed as mechanical limits.
The maximum torque is based on the load limit of the mechanical design of the shaft,
the bearings and the shaft sealing system.
Motors in the DRL.. design can be briefly and dynamically operated and loaded with a
higher torque due to their better dimensioned mechanical design. Please also refer to
the "Drive selection – DRL.. motors" (2 186) chapter.
Additional loads that arise at the customer's location must be taken into account for all
DR. motors, e.g. additionally occurring overhung or axial loads due to belt drives.
The motor's maximum speed must not be exceeded. The following table displays
these values for standard motors. They apply to motors with fluorocarbon rubber oil
seals (FKM).
Additional motor options will influence these speeds. Please contact
SEWEURODRIVE in such cases.
Please also pay attention to the following for brakemotors:
The applicable drive selection regulations with regard to the braking work.
Braking from speeds of over 1800 rpm is not permitted for brake sizes BE30 and
above. Use the controller to reduce the speed before activating the mechanical
brake.
For 4/2-pole brakemotors with brake sizes BE30 and BE32, first switch from the 2-
pole speed to the 4-pole speed. The motor can then be switched off and the brake
activated when the 4-pole speed is reached.

6.7 Bearings
6.7.1 Bearing types used
The standard motor bearings for sizes 71 225 are deep groove ball bearings, design
2Z-C3, on the A- and B-side.
2RS-C3 bearings are installed on the B-side for brakemotors up to motor size DR.
225.
If insufficient load values are achieved for axial and overhung loads with the deep
groove ball bearings, cylindrical roller bearings (SEW designation /ERF) can be instal-
led on the A-side instead of the deep groove ball bearings for motor sizes 250 315.
The cylindrical roller bearings can only be used in connection with the relubrication de-
vice (SEW designation /NS).
To prevent destructive shaft currents during operation on the inverter, the standard
deep groove ball bearings on the B-side for motor sizes 250 315 can be replaced
with ball bearings with insulated bearing surface. The bearing sizes remain un-
changed, but the designation changes to C3-EI or J-C3-EI.

Ventilation on the motor
Catalog – AC Motors DR.71 - 315, DT56, DR63 149
6.8 Ventilation on the motor
6.8.1 Standard ventilation
The standard motor ventilation consists of a plastic fan that generates an air flow. The
air is conducted directly onto and into the cooling fins on the motor's stator housing by
the structural design of the fan guard and the fan grille. The fan guard consists of a
galvanized sheet steel.
Free air access
The fan-cooled motors require adequate space behind the fan guard in order to draw
in the air required for cooling. A distance of half the diameter of the fan guard is nor-
mally sufficient.
In order to inspect and maintain the brake, SEW-EURODRIVE recommends extending
this distance to the full diameter of the fan guard for the brakemotor. This ensures that
the fan guard can be removed in an axial direction.
When integrating a motor or brakemotor into a machine or system, ensure that the
heated air is not immediately drawn back in.

The low-noise fan guard is part of the series production for:
2-pole motors in sizes DR.71 – 132,
• MOVIMOT® combinations in delta connection type.
6.8.3 Axially separable fan guards on the brakemotor, brakemotor with encoder or with a second
shaft end
Brake wear parts must be inspected and maintained on a cyclical basis for brakemo-
tors. The information in the dimension sheets refers to the sufficient extra space in the
axial direction in order to be able to remove the brakemotor fan guard.
If this space is not structurally possible in the system or machine due to the installation
situation, the axially separable fan guard is an option that still allows the brake to
be inspected. This special brakemotor fan guard design is available for motor
sizes DR.71 – DR.225.
In this case, the brakemotor fan guard is split in half, please refer to the following dia-
gram. The closing lever is normally positioned so it is aligned with the terminal box.
Please contact SEWEURODRIVE for different orientations.
When using the axially separable fan guards, please note that radial space is available
for opening the guard, please refer to the following diagram.

6.8.4 Air filter
In an environment with high amounts of dust or suspended particles, the air required
to cool the motor blows these dirt particles around. In unfavorable conditions, this
leads to the constant increase in particle deposits between the cooling fins, so that the
dirt can no longer be blown away by the cooling air flow. In the worst case, the space
between the cooling fins is completely filled and the motor is no longer cooled, result-
ing in the thermal risk that the motor may be destroyed.
In these cases, an air filter can prevent this swirling effect and the resulting damage to
the motor. Conversely, the filtered particles must continuously be removed from the fil-
ter, as otherwise ventilation can no longer take place.
As a result, the air filter is fastened to the inner guard by an additional external guard
using a single bolt.
When using an air filter, please consider the space required to remove the additional
filter guard.

6.8.5 Non-ventilated motors – without fan
The improvements described in the "Air filter" (2 152) chapter can also be achieved
by not installing a fan. The lack of cooling means that the rated power in the sizes up
to DR.225 has to be reduced to about 50% of the ventilated operation. The required
power reduction is higher for sizes DR.250 and above.
In general, this means that the motor has to be two to three sizes larger for the same
power output.
Please contact SEW-EURODRIVE to obtain the precise size.
The non-ventilated design is released from the efficiency provisions in all countries. As
a result, non-ventilated motors are generally selected based on the DRS.. motor
types.
6.8.6 Non-ventilated motors – closed B-side
An alternative to the non-ventilated motor (without fan) is the motor design for which
the fan guard is not installed and the rotor is shortened so that the B-side endshield
can be designed in a closed form.
Once again, the motor only has a rated power of about 50% of the ventilated operation
for sizes up to DR.225. The required power reduction is also higher for sizes DR.250
and above.
This design is possible for sizes DR.71 DR.280. Please contact SEW-EURODRIVE
to obtain the precise size.
6.8.7 Canopy
If a vertical motor design with upright fan guard is installed in the system or machine,
ensure that foreign bodies cannot penetrate through the fan grille into the fan wheel.
Two options are available:
structural measures in the system or the machine
or
the use of a canopy.
The canopy extends the motor or brakemotor. The specifications are provided in the
"Dimension sheets" (2 199) chapter.
Please contact SEW-EURODRIVE if there is the risk that parts may penetrate through
the side of the canopy, between the fan guard and the canopy. A canopy with a differ-
ent design may be a solution.

6.9 Second shaft end
The motors are also available with a B-side shaft end. This so-called second shaft end
is constructed with a traditional keyway and key in accordance with DIN 6885 Sheet 1
(ISO 773).
These are available in the following designs for the series:
with a cover for motors/brakemotors DR.71 – DR.132
without a cover for motors/brakemotors DR.160 DR.315, as the diameter of the
second shaft end is so large that damage during transport is unlikely.
A cover can be ordered for these sizes as an additional option.
6.9.1 Standard design
The standard design of the second shaft end for motors is generally smaller than de-
scribed in EN 50347 for each number of poles and power.
SEW-EURODRIVE has decided to take this path in order to meet the demand for
combination with different brake sizes.
6.9.2 Reinforced design
The reinforced design of the second shaft end was developed as an alternative. This
design considers the maximum possible dimension of the second shaft end and can
only be combined with one brake size.
6.9.3 Second shaft end combinations with other design types
The second shaft end can be combined with the following design types and options.

6.10 Overhung and axial loads
Refer to the following diagrams for the permitted overhung load FRx for AC motors/
brakemotors. In order to read the permitted overhung load from the diagram, you must
know what the distance x is between the force application point of the overhung load
FR and the shaft shoulder.
All overhung load diagrams are designed for a bearing service life of 20000 hours. A
detailed bearing service life calculations is available on request.
The following figure shows the point of force application of the overhung load FRx at
point X.

During determining the overhung load, the transmission element factors fZ must be
considered. The transmission element factor depends on the used transmission ele-
ment, such as gears, chains, V-belts, flat belts or toothed belts. When belt pulleys are
used, the initial belt tension must be considered as well. The overhung loads FR calcu-
lated with the transmission element factor must not exceed the permitted overhung
load of the motor.

Gears 1.15 < 17 teeth
Sprockets 1.0 ≥ 20 teeth

The following equation is used to calculate the overhung load with the transmission el-
ement factor fZ:
FR = fz × FRx
6.10.1 Permitted overhung load – 2-, 4-, 6-, 12-pole motors
The permitted overhung loads for 2-, 4-, 6- and 12-pole motors are displayed in the
individual size diagrams in the "Overhung load diagrams for 2-, 4-, 6- and 12-pole mo-
tors" (2 159) chapter.
Only the sizes, not the design lengths, are displayed separately. The different shaft
ends are shown as separate curves, parallel in the diagram, if available.
6.10.2 Permitted overhung load – pole-changing motors
The determined FRx value for the motors is multiplied by a factor of 0.8 in order to de-
fine the permitted overhung load FRx-DRx/y for the relevant pole-changing motors.
FRx-DRx/y = 0.8 × FRx
The assignment for the conversion is as follows:
2-pole motors are used for the
4/2-pole motors with Dahlander winding
8/2-pole motors with separate winding
4-pole motors are used for the
8/4-pole motors with Dahlander winding
6.10.3 Permitted overhung load of DRL.. motors
The determined FRx value for the 4-pole DRL.. motors of the same size is multiplied by
a factor of 0.8 in order to define the permitted overhung load FRx-DRL for the 4-pole
DRL.. motors.
FRx-DRL = 0.8 × FRx

6.10.4 Permitted overhung load of DRM.. motors
The permitted overhung loads for the 12-pole torque motors are identical to the over-
hung loads for the 6-pole motors, please refer to the "Overhung load diagrams for 2-,
4-, 6-, 12-pole motors" (2 159).
6.10.5 Permitted axial load
The permitted axial load FA is calculated by multiplying the determined overhung load
FRx by a factor of 0.2 for all DR.. series motor types:
• FA = 0.2 × FRx
The axial load FA can load the motor's shaft end at the same time as the calculated
overhung load FR.
6.10.6 Overhung and axial loads at the second shaft end
The "Overhung load diagrams for 2-, 4-, 6-, 12-pole motors" (2 159) also displays
the diagrams for the permitted overhung loads at the second shaft end for every motor
size. A distinction is made between motors and brakemotors as well as between
standard and reinforced second shaft ends.
Axial loads at the second shaft end may not exceed the information from the "Permit-
ted axial load" (2 158) chapter based on a directional addition.
6.10.7 Torques and duty types
The customer's motor shaft and bearings are designed for the overhung and axial
loads in the following diagrams in this chapter. The information is based on the nomi-
nal speed nN and the superimposed nominal torque MN in S1, S2 and S3 motor opera-
tion.
The second shaft end of the motor, shown as /2W in the diagrams, can transfer a
maximum of the motor's nominal torque MN in S1 operation.
If conditions occur which are not considered in the descriptions or diagrams in this
chapter, consult SEWEURODRIVE.

The center of gravity of a motor is a theoretical variable which assumes that the entire
mass of the motor is concentrated in one point and acts on this point with the weight
Fq. The mass of the motor can be found in the chapter "Technical motor
data" (2 91).
The center of gravity of the motor must also be taken into account when combining
gear units with flange motors and, if applicable, with feet attached with the aid of
adapters.

6.12.2 Drive selection for pole-changing motors
The following windings are distinguished for pole-changing motors:
Separate winding: 8/2-pole DRS.. motors
Dahlander winding: 4/2, 8/4-pole DRS.. motors
Description of switching torque
The functioning of the switchover from the 2-pole to the 8-pole winding is explained on
the basis of the 8/2 pole motor.
If the 8-pole winding is connected to the supply system from the operation of the 2-
pole speed, with virtually no period of no-load operation, the motor briefly functions as
a generator due to the above-synchronous speed. The transformation of kinetic ener-
gy into electrical energy decelerates it to the lower speed in a low-loss, wear-free
manner.
To be able to calculate the mean switching torque as a first approximation, the availa-
ble kinematic data is employed.
MU = fU × MA8
MU = geometrically averaged switching torque from high to low speed in Nm.
MA8 = starting torque in low speed in Nm.
fU = averaged factor of 8-pole winding's regenerative torque curve.
If the switching torque is too high, SEW-EURODRIVE recommends the use of the
WPU smooth-pole change unit.

6.13 Drive selection – global motor
When selecting a global motor, the following properties should be taken into account.
6.13.1 Gear unit reduction ratios for the global motor
The global motor is supplied with the electrical specifications for 50 Hz and 60 Hz. If
the motor is combined with an additional transmission or a gear unit, it should be no-
ted that the reduction ratio is generally only determined for one of the two frequencies.
If the reduction ratio is calculated for 50 Hz and the gear unit configured accordingly,
this results in the behavioral changes described in the chapter "50 Hz motors on 60 Hz
supply systems" (2 127) when operated on a 60 Hz system.
If operation on the 60 Hz supply system represents the initial situation, the ratios from
the chapter "50 Hz motors on 60 Hz supply systems" (2 127) are reversed.
These ratio changes must be taken into account when designing machines and sys-
tems.
6.13.2 Identification of degrees of protection
SEW-EURODRIVE classifies the motor degrees of protection according to the interna-
tional standard IEC 60034-5; see chapter "Degrees of protection to EN/IEC
60034-5" (2 139).
In North America, on the other hand, identification of a different degree of protection is
required by the relevant standards.
The degree of protection is represented by an abbreviation made up of four charac-
ters. In the case of the global motor, SEW-EURODRIVE employs the following identifi-
cations and includes this information on the nameplate.
Abbrevi-
ation
English designation German translation
TEFC Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled völlig geschlossen, Lüfter gekühlt
TEBC Totally Enclosed Blower Cooled völlig geschlossen, Fremdlüfter gekühlt
In NEMA MG1, degrees of protection IP54 to IP66 are all classified as fully enclosed.
6.13.3 Voltage tolerances
If multiple voltages are included on a motor nameplate, the actual limit values and tol-
erances must be considered.
The motor standard IEC 60034 comprises two tolerance ranges. If no tolerance is
specified on the nameplate, a voltage tolerance of ± 5% applies. For more information,
refer to the chapter "Motor standard IEC 60034" (2 25).
The voltages in 50 Hz supply systems are generally based on the standard IEC 38.
Here, the tolerance range is ±10%.
In 60 Hz systems, the usual tolerance is ±10 % and normally indicated without addi-
tional information on the nameplate.
In order to implement motor and supply system standards for products such as the
global motor, the voltage range was created.
The specification of an upper and lower voltage, each with a ± 5% tolerance, results in
a combined tolerance of ± 10% for the median voltage.
This procedure is employed for the tolerances of the voltage blocks specified in the
chapter "Global motor" (2 45).

6.13.4 Global motor with brake
In many drive situations and applications, it is sufficient to tap the brake voltage from
the supply voltage of the motor.
If the motor is configured for the 50 Hz and 60 Hz voltage range, the brake voltage
covers a very large range.
As described in the chapter "Brake voltage" (2 126), the brake must not be released
at the upper voltages in these cases without activating the motor in order to cool the
brake with the motor cooling air.

6.14.1 Special aspects of torque motors and low-speed motors
Due to the design of torque motors and low-speed motors, very high induction voltag-
es may be generated when they are switched off. SEWEURODRIVE recommends
using the varistor circuit shown below for protection. The size of the varistors depends,
amongst other factors, on the starting frequency. This must be taken into account dur-
ing project planning.

The varistor protection circuit can be obtained from SEW-EURODRIVE. Please speci-
fy the desired starting frequency with your order.
6.14.2 R13 wiring diagram
The conventional torque motor operation is measured in a star connection in S1 con-
tinuous duty.
If the same torque motor is used in a delta connection, the usual factor of 3 for AC
motors no longer applies due to the weak magnetic field saturation of the star connec-
tion. The influence of the magnetic stray fields in the star or delta connection is no lon-
ger proportional. As a result, the torque motor in the delta connection develops a high-
er torque than that produced by the factor of 3. In return, the operating time must be
reduced to S3/15%.
Alternatively, the reduction of the operating time can be compensated by means of a
forced cooling fan.
6.14.3 R23 wiring diagram
For applications that use the two connection types star and delta alternately and must
not have more than the 3 times the torque of the star connection in the delta connec-
tion, SEWEURODRIVE offers the connection type R23. Only part of the winding is
activated in the case of the delta connection.
Please consult SEWEURODRIVE if necessary.
6.14.4 Restrictions due to combinations with options and variations
As a result of the non-ventilated operation, the components and component parts of
the torque motors are subject to greater thermal stress at a standstill than a normal
AC motor.
Therefore, all variations and options that cannot be subjected to high thermal loads
must be excluded from the combination with torque motors.

These include:
The backstop: The grease used within the backstop to ensure the mobility of the
blocking bodies reaches impermissibly high temperatures, which can affect the tor-
que motor when at a standstill.
The EI7 built-in encoders: When used with a torque motor, the installation space
before the fan and behind the B-side flange is heated to a point that the electronic
components of the sensor technology may be damaged.
The EI7 built-in encoders are only approved for use in combination with the option-
al /V forced cooling fan. Without additional cooling, the rise in temperature before
the fan and behind the B-side flange is too high.
The add-on encoders with direct shaft-shaft connection: Due to the transfer of heat
energy from the rotor to the shaft of the encoder, the latter reaches impermissibly
high temperatures. The use of a coupling for the encoder mounting, as a means of
interrupting the heat transfer, is permitted.
The thermal class 180 (H): Use of the thermal class 180 (H) would stress the gas-
kets, bearings, and bearing lubricants beyond the permitted temperature thresh-
olds.

6.15.4 Drive selection –DRL.. motors
Tapping the full potential of an asynchronous servomotor requires the selection of an
appropriate drive.
The schematic procedure is detailed in the chapter "Drive selection controlled mo-
tor" (2 179).
Dynamics package D1 or D2
During the drive selection, you must decide which dynamics package is required and
will be implemented.
Predeterminations will then be made on this basis, particularly with regard to the size
of the inverter.
The higher inertia levels of the DRL.. motor when compared to synchronous servomo-
tors roughly a factor of 10 or more are of great benefit when controlling loads with
high mass moments of inertia, even when taking gear unit reduction ratios into ac-
count.
For detailed information, refer to the chapter "Product description – asynchronous ser-
vomotors of the DRL.. series" (2 50).
The technical data for the DRL.. motors and the limit values of the D1 or D2 dynamics
packages are provided in the chapter "Technical data – DRL.. asynchronous servomo-
tors.." (2 117).
Sine encoder
The standard drive package of the of the DRL.. motors includes a sine encoder:
DRL71 – DRL132 with ES7S
DRL160 – DRL225 with EG7S
This sine encoder has a resolution of 1024 sine cycles.
The interpolation of the sin/cos signals in the inverter greatly increases the available
speed information, resulting in a usable speed setting range of 1:5000 and highly ac-
curate operation at speeds below 1 rpm.
Startup is simplified by the electronic nameplate included in the encoder.
Detailed information can be found in the chapter "Encoders" (2 431).
Absolute encoder
Instead of the sine encoder, an absolute encoder can be installed at the same location
without additional length.
DRL71 – DRL132 with AS7W or AS7Y
DRL160 – DRL225 with AG7W or AG7Y
The SSI encoder (A.7Y) establishes the connection to the functional safety elements
in the control cabinet.
Startup is simplified by the electronic nameplate included in the encoder.
Detailed information can be found in the chapter "Encoders" (2 431).

Forced cooling fan
The use of a /V forced cooling fan prevents the reduction in permissible load torque at
speeds below 900 rpm.
In fact, the relationship is reversed, meaning that the permitted torque at speed "0" is
approx. 10 – 15% higher than the nominal torque when a forced cooling fan is used.
Detailed information can be found in the chapter "Forced cooling fans" (2 503).
The limit characteristic curves of the DRL.. motors are covered separately in the man-
ual "AC motors – inverter assignments and characteristic curves".
Inverter utilization
When selecting the drive for an asynchronous servomotor, the following variables ap-
ply:
The mean (effective) speed
The mean (effective) torque
The maximum speed
The maximum dynamic torque
To select a suitable inverter, you must check the thermally decisive elements in the
limit characteristic curves with 100% IN and the peak values in the diagrams with
150%/200% IN.
Technical data for the DRL.. motors can be found in the chapter "Technical data
asynchronous DRL.. servomotors" (2 117).
The combinations and limit characteristic curves of the DRL.. motors with
MOVIDRIVE® and MOVIAXIS® are covered in full in the manual "AC motors inverter
assignments and characteristic curves".
The maximum speeds of the motors are specified in the chapter "Maximum
speeds" (2 145).

INFORMATION
The overhung load is too high with the recommended transmission element factor for
gear rack pinions of fz = 2 (FR = 5437 N); see section "Overhung and axial
loads" (2 156). This must either be compensated by a suitable bearing for the gear
rack pinion, or a larger gear unit must be selected.
Motor selection
Maximum operating point
Conversion of the torque to the motor side:
Mmax = M / η / iactual
Mmax = 102.2 Nm / 0.9 / 5.81
Mmax = 19.56 Nm
Conversion of the speed to the motor side:
nmax = n × iactual
nmax = 477.5 rpm × 5.81
nmax = 2774 rpm
Mmax and nmax denote the maximum operating point; in this case, Mmax is required at
nmax.
Effective operating point
The effective operating point was calculated as
Meff = 8.26 Nm
at a speed of
nn = 1981 rpm
Motor preselection
The motor size DRL90L4 was preselected.

nbase = 2683 rpm
Checking the relationship of the mass moment of inertia results in the following:
Jext/Jmot = 12.03
The ratio of 12.03 is acceptable for a dynamic vehicle drive.
MOVIDRIVE® B inverter selection
The effective operating point (F) for the motor must be below the S1 limit curve. The
thermal load on the motor is thus within the permitted range.
The effective operating point (F) in the speed/torque diagram for 100% inverter uti-
lization must be below the characteristic curve for the motor/inverter combination to
be selected. The load on the inverter (continuous duty) is thus within the permitted
range.
In the speed/torque diagram for 150% inverter utilization, the maximum operating
point (M) (possibly two different points for maximum speed and maximum torque)
must be below the characteristic curve for the motor/inverter combination to be se-
lected. The load on the inverter (maximum operation) is thus within the permitted
range.

6.15.6 Reinforced insulation for inverter operation > 500 V AC
Standard insulation
The operation of an AC asynchronous motor with a frequency inverter places a much
greater load on the winding than in the case of non-controlled operation.
The inverters pulse the DC voltage of the DC link (Uz) to the supply cables to the mo-
tor. This pulsing takes place in the kHz range, which means several thousand ON and
OFF switchings per second – at SEW-EURODRIVE usually with 4, 8, 16 kHz.
The standard windings of the motors are constructed with copper wires and surface
insulating materials, which can easily withstand the voltage peaks specified below.
Line-to-line voltages ULL = 1560 V
Line-to-ground voltages ULG = 1100 V
The DR. motors can therefore be used with the normal winding on frequency inverters
with up to 500 V.
If a DR. motor is operated with a frequency inverter supplied with 600 V or 690 V, or
the DC link voltage of which is raised to over 742.5 V DC, the double voltage pulse
can exceed the maximum permissible value of the standard winding of 1560 V.
Design measures must therefore be taken to protect the motor from these high voltag-
es.
Reinforced insulation (/RI)
The electric strength of the winding insulation is achieved by reinforcing the coat thick-
ness of the inner layer for the copper wires.
This insulating system for motors carries the type and catalog designation /RI.
The standard surface insulating materials are sufficient for line-to-line and line-to-
ground insulation.
The RI windings of the motors withstand voltage peaks of up to
Line-to-line voltages ULL = 1800 V
Line-to-ground voltages ULG = 1250 V
See also chapter "DR.. AC motors on non-SEW inverters" (2 198).

Reinforced insulation with increased resistance against partial discharge (/RI2)
If the voltage peaks exceed the 1800 V threshold, enameled wires with higher resist-
ance against partial discharge must be used. This higher resistance is achieved by the
addition of inorganic additives to the coating of the inner layer.
The standard surface insulating materials for line-to-line and line-to-ground separation
are also no longer sufficient. To protect against these very high voltages, thicker sur-
face insulating materials and enhanced impregnation must be used.
This insulating system for DR.. motors carries the type and catalog designation /RI2.
The RI2 windings of the DR.. motors easily withstand voltage peaks of up to
Line-to-line voltages ULL = 2150 V
Line-to-ground voltages ULG = 1800 V
See also chapter "DR.. AC motors on non-SEW inverters" (2 198).
6.15.7 Limit characteristic curves of the motors in inverter operation
The thermal curves for the asynchronous AC motors of the DR.. series are distinguish-
ed with regard to their energy efficiency class.
The asynchronous servomotors are distinguished according to their speed class.
Thermally permitted torques – DRS.. motors
When DRS.. motors are used with inverters, the thermally permitted torque must be
observed during the drive selection. The following factors determine the thermally per-
mitted torque:
Energy efficiency class: none or IE1
Operating mode
Type of cooling: Self-cooling or forced cooling
Base frequency: fbase = 50 Hz (400 V W) or fbase = 87 Hz (400 V m)
You can determine the thermally permitted torque on the basis of torque limit curves.
The effective torque calculated during project planning must be below the limit curve
with regard to the mean speed.
Below are the limit curves for 4-pole DRS.. motors with the following line frequencies:
• fbase = 50 Hz
• fbase = 87 Hz
The following conditions apply to the shown limit curves:
Motor in duty type S1 on 50 Hz supply system
Line voltage of motor 230 V m / 400 V W or corresponding voltage range
Supply voltage of the inverter Uline = 3 × 400 V AC

Thermally permitted torques – DRE.. and DRP.. motors
When DRE.. or DRP.. motors are used with inverters, the thermally permitted torque
must be observed during the drive selection. The following factors determine the ther-
mally permitted torque:
Energy efficiency class: IE2 or IE3
Operating mode
Type of cooling: Self-cooling or forced cooling
Base frequency: fbase = 50 Hz (400 V W) or fbase = 87 Hz (400 V m)
Due to the lower thermal load of the IE2/IE3 design, the nominal torque of the motor
on the supply system can be subjected to a constant load down to approx 20 Hz.
The thermally permitted torque is determined on the basis of torque limit curves. The
effective torque calculated during project planning must be below the limit curve with
regard to the mean speed.

Thermally permitted torques – DRL.. motor
When asynchronous DRL.. servomotors are used with inverters, the thermally and dy-
namically permitted torque must be observed during the drive selection. The following
factors determine the thermally permitted torque:
Type of cooling: Self-cooling or forced cooling
Speed class
The thermally permitted torque is determined on the basis of torque limit curves. The
effective torque calculated during project planning must be below the limit curve with
regard to the mean speed. The limit curves for the 4-pole asynchronous DRL.. servo-
motors in the following speed classes are provided in the manual "AC motors inver-
ter assignments and characteristic curves":
1200 rpm (corresponds to fbase of approx. 41 – 43 Hz)
1700 rpm (corresponds to fbase of approx. 58 – 61 Hz)

2100 rpm (corresponds to fbase of approx. 72 – 76 Hz)
3000 rpm (corresponds to fbase of approx. 102 – 108 Hz)
The dynamically permitted torque is limited by the following:
The mechanical limit value according to dynamics package D1 or D2, which is in-
dependent of the selected speed class
The dynamic maximum and temporary current of the inverter
The following conditions apply to the basic limit curves shown:
DRL.. motor according to technical data, see chapter "Asynchronous DRL.. servo-
motors" (2 117)
Supply voltage of the inverter Uline = 3 × 400 V AC
/TF thermal motor protection
The potential dynamics of the inverter and motor are illustrated by the diagram for
150% current of the inverter, while the thermal limit for the inverter and motor is shown
in the diagram for 100% current of the inverter.
A separate overview of all limit curves is provided in the manual "AC motors – inverter
assignments and characteristic curves".

INFORMATION
Compliance with the limit values must be checked and taken into account as follows:
The supply voltage level at the non-SEW inverter
The threshold of the brake chopper voltage
The operating mode of the motor (motoring/regenerative operation)
If the permitted pulse voltage is exceeded, limiting measures, such as filters,
chokes, or special motor cables must be used. Contact the manufacturer of the
frequency inverter for more information.
