A Warning statement indicates a possible unsafe condition that can cause harm to personnel. A Caution statement indicates a condition that can cause damage to equipment. Important: This instruction manual is not intended to include a comprehensive listing of all details for all procedures required for installation, operation and maintenance. This manual describes general guidelines that apply to most of the motor products shipped by Baldor. If you have a question about a procedure or are uncertain about any detail, Do Not Proceed. Please contact your Baldor distributor for more information or clarification. Before you install, operate or perform maintenance, become familiar with the following: S NEMA Publication MG‐2, Safety Standard for Construction and guide for Selection, Installation and Use of Electric Motors and Generators. S The National Electrical Code S Local codes and Practices Limited Warranty 1. Most Baldor products are warranted for 18 months from the date of shipment to Baldor's customer from Baldor's district warehouse or, if applicable, from Baldor's factory. Baldor Standard-E® standard efficient motors are warranted for 24 months. Standard-E is limited to three phase, general purpose, 1-200 HP ratings that fall under the Energy Policy Act (EPAct). Baldor Super-E® premium efficient motors are warranted for 36 months. Baldor IEEE841 motors are warranted for 60 months. All warranty claims must be submitted to a Baldor Service Center prior to the expiration of the warranty period. 2. Baldor will, at its option repair or replace a motor which fails due to defects in material or workmanship during the warranty period if: a. the purchaser presents the defective motor at or ships it prepaid to, the Baldor plant in Fort Smith, Arkansas or one of the Baldor Authorized Service Centers and b. the purchaser gives written notification concerning the motor and the claimed defect including the date purchased, the task performed by the Baldor motor and the problem encountered. 3. Baldor will not pay the cost of removal of any electric motor from any equipment, the cost of delivery to Fort Smith, Arkansas or a Baldor Authorized Service Center, or the cost of any incidental or consequential damages resulting from the claimed defects. (Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.) Any implied warranty given by laws shall be limited to the duration of the warranty period hereunder. (Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.) 4. Baldor Authorized Service Centers, when convinced to their satisfaction that a Baldor motor developed defects in material or workmanship within the warranty period, are authorized to proceed with the required repairs to fulfill Baldor's warranty when the cost of such repairs to be paid by Baldor does not exceed Baldor's warranty repair allowance. Baldor will not pay overtime premium repair charges without prior written authorization. 5. The cost of warranty repairs made by centers other than Baldor Authorized Service Centers WILL NOT be paid unless first authorized in writing by Baldor. 6. Claims by a purchaser that a motor is defective even when a failure results within one hour after being placed into service are not always justified. Therefore, Baldor Authorized Service Centers must determine from the condition of the motor as delivered to the center whether or not the motor is defective. If in the opinion of a Baldor Authorized Service Center, a motor did not fail as a result of defects in material or workmanship, the center is to proceed with repairs only if the purchaser agrees to pay for such repairs. If the decision is in dispute, the purchaser should still pay for the repairs and submit the paid invoice and the Authorized Service Center's signed service report to Baldor for further consideration. 7. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. MN400 General Information 1‐1 Safety Notice: This equipment contains high voltage!

Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. National Electrical Code and Local codes must be carefully followed. WARNING: Avoid extended exposure to machinery with high noise levels. Be sure to wear ear protective devices to reduce harmful effects to your hearing. WARNING: This equipment may be connected to other machinery that has rotating parts or parts that are driven by this equipment. Improper use can cause serious or fatal injury. Only qualified personnel should attempt to install operate or maintain this equipment. WARNING: Do not by‐pass or disable protective devices or safety guards. Safety features are designed to prevent damage to personnel or equipment. These devices can only provide protection if they remain operative. WARNING: Avoid the use of automatic reset devices if the automatic restarting of equipment can be hazardous to personnel or equipment. WARNING: Be sure the load is properly coupled to the motor shaft before applying power. The shaft key must be fully captive by the load device. Improper coupling can cause harm to personnel or equipment if the load decouples from the shaft during operation. WARNING: Use proper care and procedures that are safe during handling, lifting, installing, operating and maintaining operations. Improper methods may cause muscle strain or other harm. WARNING: Before performing any motor maintenance procedure, be sure that the equipment connected to the motor shaft cannot cause shaft rotation. If the load can cause shaft rotation, disconnect the load from the motor shaft before maintenance is performed. Unexpected mechanical rotation of the motor parts can cause injury or motor damage. WARNING: Disconnect all electrical power from the motor windings and accessory devices before disassembly of the motor. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. WARNING: Do not use non UL/CSA listed explosion proof motors in the presence of flammable or combustible vapors or dust. These motors are not designed for atmospheric conditions that require explosion proof operation. MN400 Section 1 General Information Safety Notice Continued WARNING: Motors that are to be used in flammable and/or explosive atmospheres must display the UL label on the nameplate along with CSA listed logo. Specific service conditions for these motors are defined in NFPA 70 (NEC) Article 500. WARNING: UL Listed motors must only be serviced by UL Approved Authorized Baldor Service Centers if these motors are to be returned to a hazardous and/or explosive atmosphere. Caution: To prevent premature equipment failure or damage, only qualified maintenance personnel should perform maintenance. Caution: Do not over-lubricate motor as this may cause premature bearing failure. Caution: Do not lift the motor and its driven load by the motor lifting hardware. The motor lifting hardware is adequate for lifting only the motor. Disconnect the load from the motor shaft before moving the motor. Caution: If eye bolts are used for lifting a motor, be sure they are securely tightened. The lifting direction should not exceed a 20° angle from the shank of the eye bolt or lifting lug. Excessive lifting angles can cause damage. Caution: To prevent equipment damage, be sure that the electrical service is not capable of delivering more than the maximum motor rated amps listed on the rating plate. Caution: If a HI POT test (High Potential Insulation test) must be performed, follow the precautions and procedure in NEMA MG1 and MG2 standards to avoid equipment damage. If you have any questions or are uncertain about any statement or procedure, or if you require additional information please contact your Baldor distributor or an Authorized Baldor Service Center. MN400 General Information 1‐3 Section 1 General Information Receiving Storage Unpacking Handling Each Baldor Electric Motor is thoroughly tested at the factory and carefully packaged for shipment. When you receive your motor, there are several things you should do immediately. 1. Observe the condition of the shipping container and report any damage immediately to the commercial carrier that delivered your motor. 2. Verify that the part number of the motor you received is the same as the part number listed on your purchase order. If the motor is not put into service immediately, the motor must be stored in a clean, dry and warm location. Several precautionary steps must be performed to avoid motor damage during storage. 1. Use a “Megger” periodically to ensure that the integrity of the winding insulation has been maintained. Record the Megger readings. Immediately investigate any significant drop in insulation resistance. 2. Do not lubricate bearings during storage. Motor bearings are packed with grease at the factory. Excessive grease can damage insulation quality. 3. Rotate motor shaft at least 10 turns every two months during storage (more frequently if possible). This will prevent bearing damage due to storage. 4. If the storage location is damp or humid, the motor windings must be protected from moisture. This can be done by applying power to the motors' space heater (if available) while the motor is in storage. Each Baldor motor is packaged for ease of handling and to prevent entry of contaminants. 1. To avoid condensation inside the motor, do not unpack until the motor has reached room temperature. (Room temperature is the temperature of the room in which it will be installed). The packing provides insulation from temperature changes during transportation. 2. When the motor has reached room temperature, remove all protective wrapping material from the motor. The motor should be lifted using the lifting lugs or eye bolts provided. 1. Use the lugs or eye bolts provided to lift the motor. Never attempt to lift the motor and additional equipment connected to the motor by this method. The lugs or eye bolts provided are designed to lift only the motor. Never lift the motor by the motor shaft or the hood of a WPII motor. 2. When lifting a WPII (Weather Proof Type 2) motor, do not lift the motor by inserting lifting lugs into holes on top of the cooling hood. These lugs are to be used for hood removal only. A spreader bar should be used to lift the motor by the cast lifting lugs located on the motor frame. 3. If the motor must be mounted to a plate with the driven equipment such as pump, compressor etc., it may not be possible to lift the motor alone. For this case, the assembly should be lifted by a sling around the mounting base. The entire assembly can be lifted as an assembly for installation. Do not lift using the motor lugs or eye bolts provided. If the load is unbalanced (as with couplings or additional attachments) additional slings or other means must be used to prevent tipping. In any event, the load must be secure before lifting. 1‐4 General Information MN400 Section 2 Installation & Operation Overview Installation should conform to the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and practices. When other devices are coupled to the motor shaft, be sure to install protective devices to prevent future accidents. Some protective devices include, coupling, belt guard, chain guard, shaft covers etc. These protect against accidental contact with moving parts. Machinery that is accessible to personnel should provide further protection in the form of guard rails, screening, warning signs etc. Location It is important that motors be installed in locations that are compatible with motor enclosure and ambient conditions. Improper selection of the motor enclosure and ambient conditions can lead to reduced operating life of the motor. Proper ventilation for the motor must be provided. Obstructed airflow can lead to reduction of motor life. 1. Open Drip-Proof/WPI motors are intended for use indoors where atmosphere is relatively clean, dry, well ventilated and non-corrosive. 2. Totally Enclosed and WPII motors may be installed where dirt, moisture or dust are present and in outdoor locations. Severe Duty, IEEE 841 and Washdown Duty enclosed motors are designed for installations with high corrosion or excessive moisture conditions. These motors should not be placed into an environment where there is the presence of flammable or combustible vapors, dust or any combustible material, unless specifically designed for this type of service. Mounting The motor must be securely installed to a rigid foundation or mounting surface to minimize vibration and maintain alignment between the motor and shaft load. Failure to provide a proper mounting surface may cause vibration, misalignment and bearing damage. Foundation caps and sole plates are designed to act as spacers for the equipment they support. If these devices are used, be sure that they are evenly supported by the foundation or mounting surface. After installation is complete and accurate alignment of the motor and load is accomplished, the base should be grouted to the foundation to maintain this alignment. The standard motor base is designed for horizontal or vertical mounting. Adjustable or sliding rails are designed for horizontal mounting only. Consult your Baldor distributor or authorized Baldor Service Center for further information. Alignment Accurate alignment of the motor with the driven equipment is extremely important. 1. Direct Coupling For direct drive, use flexible couplings if possible. Consult the drive or equipment manufacturer for more information. Mechanical vibration and roughness during operation may indicate poor alignment. Use dial indicators to check alignment. The space between coupling hubs should be maintained as recommended by the coupling manufacturer. 2. End‐Play Adjustment The axial position of the motor frame with respect to its load is also extremely important. The motor bearings are not designed for excessive external axial thrust loads. Improper adjustment will cause failure. 3. Pulley Ratio The pulley ratio should not exceed 8:1. 4. Belt Drive Align sheaves carefully to minimize belt wear and axial bearing loads (see End‐Play Adjustment). Belt tension should be sufficient to prevent belt slippage at rated speed and load. However, belt slippage may occur during starting. Caution: 5. MN400 Do not over tension belts. Sleeve bearing motors are only suitable for coupled loads. Installation & Operation 2‐1 Section 1 General Information Doweling & Bolting Power Connection After proper alignment is verified, dowel pins should be inserted through the motor feet into the foundation. This will maintain the correct motor position should motor removal be required. (Baldor motors are designed for doweling.) 1. Drill dowel holes in diagonally opposite motor feet in the locations provided. 2. Drill corresponding holes in the foundation. 3. Ream all holes. 4. Install proper fitting dowels. 5. Mounting bolts must be carefully tightened to prevent changes in alignment. Use a flat washer and lock washer under each nut or bolt head to hold the motor feet secure. Flanged nuts or bolts may be used as an alternative to washers. Motor and control wiring, overload protection, disconnects, accessories and grounding should conform to the National Electrical Code and local codes and practices. Conduit Box For ease of making connections, an oversize conduit box is provided. The box can be rotated 360° in 90° increments. Auxiliary conduit boxes are provided on some motors for accessories such as space heaters, RTD's etc. AC Power Connect the motor leads as shown on the connection diagram located on the name plate or inside the cover on the conduit box. Be sure the following guidelines are met: 1. AC power is within ±10% of rated voltage with rated frequency. (See motor name plate for ratings). OR 2. AC power is within ±5% of rated frequency with rated voltage. OR 3. A combined variation in voltage and frequency of ±10% (sum of absolute values) of rated values, provided the frequency variation does not exceed ±5% of rated frequency. Performance within these voltage and frequency variations are shown in Figure 2‐2. Figure 2‐1 Accessory Connections One heater is installed in each end of motor. Leads for each heater are labeled H1 & H2. (Like numbers should be tied together). Three thermisters are installed in windings and tied in series. Leads are labeled T1 & T2. Winding RTDs are installed in windings (2) per phase. Each set of leads is labeled W1, W2, W3, W4, W5, & W6. * One bearing RTD is installed in Drive endplate (PUEP), leads are labeled RTDDE. * One bearing RTD is installed in Opposite Drive endplate (FREP), leads are labeled RTDODE. * Note RTD may have 2-Red/1-White leads; or 2-White/1-Red Lead. 2‐2 Installation & Operation MN400 Section 1 General Information Figure 2‐2 Typical Motor Performance VS Voltage Variations +20 Maximum Torque Full ‐Load Current Changes in Motor Performance (%) +15 +10 +5 Full ‐Load Current Power Factor 0 -5 Efficiency Efficiency -10 -15 Power Factor Maximum Torque -20 -15 -10 -5 0 +5 +10 +15 Voltage Variations (%) MN400 Installation & Operation 2‐3 Section 1 General Information First Time Start Up Be sure that all power to motor and accessories is off. Be sure the motor shaft is disconnected from the load and will not cause mechanical rotation of the motor shaft. 1. Make sure that the mechanical installation is secure. All bolts and nuts are tightened etc. 2. If motor has been in storage or idle for some time, check winding insulation integrity with a Megger. 3. Inspect all electrical connections for proper termination, clearance, mechanical strength and electrical continuity. 4. Be sure all shipping materials and braces (if used) are removed from motor shaft. 5. Manually rotate the motor shaft to ensure that it rotates freely. 6. Replace all panels and covers that were removed during installation. 7. Momentarily apply power and check the direction of rotation of the motor shaft. 8. If motor rotation is wrong, be sure power is off and change the motor lead connections. Verify rotation direction before you continue. 9. Start the motor and ensure operation is smooth without excessive vibration or noise. If so, run the motor for 1 hour with no load connected. 10. After 1 hour of operation, disconnect power and connect the load to the motor shaft. Verify all coupling guards and protective devices are installed. Ensure motor is properly ventilated. Coupled Start Up This procedure assumes a coupled start up. Also, that the first time start up procedure was successful. 1. Check the coupling and ensure that all guards and protective devices are installed. 2. Check that the coupling is properly aligned and not binding. 3. The first coupled start up should be with no load. Apply power and verify that the load is not transmitting excessive vibration back to the motor though the coupling or the foundation. Vibration should be at an acceptable level. 4. Run for approximately 1 hour with the driven equipment in an unloaded condition. The equipment can now be loaded and operated within specified limits. Do not exceed the name plate ratings for amperes for steady continuous loads. Jogging and Repeated Starts Repeated starts and/or jogs of induction motors generally reduce the life of the motor winding insulation. A much greater amount of heat is produced by each acceleration or jog than by the same motor under full load. If it is necessary to repeatedly start or jog the motor, it is advisable to check the application with your local Baldor distributor or Baldor Service Center. Heating ‐ Duty rating and maximum ambient temperature are stated on the motor name plate. Do not exceed these values. If there is any question regarding safe operation, contact your local Baldor distributor or Baldor Service Center. 2‐4 Installation & Operation MN400 Section 3 Maintenance & Troubleshooting WARNING: General Inspection Inspect the motor at regular intervals, approximately every 500 hours of operation or every 3 months, whichever occurs first. Keep the motor clean and the ventilation openings clear. The following steps should be performed at each inspection: WARNING: Relubrication & Bearings Type of Grease UL Listed motors must only be serviced by UL Approved Authorized Baldor Service Centers if these motors are to be returned to a hazardous and/or explosive atmosphere. Do not touch electrical connections before you first ensure that power has been disconnected. Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury. Only qualified personnel should attempt the installation, operation and maintenance of this equipment. 1. Check that the motor is clean. Check that the interior and exterior of the motor is free of dirt, oil, grease, water, etc. Oily vapor, paper pulp, textile lint, etc. can accumulate and block motor ventilation. If the motor is not properly ventilated, overheating can occur and cause early motor failure. 2. Use a “Megger” periodically to ensure that the integrity of the winding insulation has been maintained. Record the Megger readings. Immediately investigate any significant drop in insulation resistance. 3. Check all electrical connectors to be sure that they are tight. Bearing grease will lose its lubricating ability over time, not suddenly. The lubricating ability of a grease (over time) depends primarily on the type of grease, the size of the bearing, the speed at which the bearing operates and the severity of the operating conditions. Good results can be obtained if the following recommendations are used in your maintenance program. A high grade ball or roller bearing grease should be used. Recommended grease for standard service conditions is Polyrex EM (Exxon Mobil). Equivalent and compatible greases include: Texaco Polystar, Rykon Premium #2, Pennzoil Pen 2 Lube and Chevron SRI. Relubrication Intervals Recommended relubrication intervals are shown in Table 3‐1. It is important to realize that the recommended intervals of Table 3‐1 are based on average use. Refer to additional information contained in Tables 3‐2, 3‐3 and 3‐4. Table 3‐1 Relubrication Intervals * NEMA / (IEC) Frame Size Up to 210 incl. (132) Over 210 to 280 incl.

For intermediate bearing sizes, use the grease volume for the next larger size bearing. 3‐2 Maintenance & Troubleshooting MN400 Caution: To avoid damage to motor bearings, grease must be kept free of dirt. For an extremely dirty environment, contact your Baldor distributor or an authorized Baldor Service Center for additional information. Relubrication Procedure Be sure that the grease you are adding to the motor is compatible with the grease already in the motor. Consult your Baldor distributor or an authorized service center if a grease other than the recommended type is to be used. Caution: Do not over-lubricate motor as this may cause premature bearing failure. With Grease Outlet Plug 1. With the motor stopped, clean all grease fittings with a clean cloth. 2. Remove grease outlet plug. Caution: Over-lubricating can cause excessive bearing temperatures, premature lubrication breakdown and bearing failure. 3. Add the recommended amount of grease. 4. Operate the motor for 15 minutes with grease plug removed. This allows excess grease to purge. 5. Re‐install grease outlet plug. Without Grease Provisions Note: Only a Baldor authorized and UL or CSA certified service center can disassemble a UL/CSA listed explosion proof motor to maintain it's UL/CSA listing. 1. Disassemble the motor. 2. Add recommended amount of grease to bearing and bearing cavity. (Bearing should be about 1/3 full of grease and outboard bearing cavity should be about 1/2 full of grease.) 3. Assemble the motor. Sample Relubrication Determination Assume ‐ NEMA 286T (IEC 180), 1750 RPM motor driving an exhaust fan in an ambient temperature of 43° C and the atmosphere is moderately corrosive. 1. Table 3‐1 list 9500 hours for standard conditions. 2. Table 3‐2 classifies severity of service as “Severe”. 3. Table 3‐4 shows that 1.2 in3 or 3.9 teaspoon of grease is to be added. Note: Smaller bearings in size category may require reduced amounts of grease. MN400 Maintenance & Troubleshooting 3‐3 Section 1 General Information Table 3‐5 Troubleshooting Chart Symptom Motor will not start Excessive humming Motor Over Heating Possible Causes Usually caused by line trouble, such as, single phasing at the starter. High Voltage. Eccentric air gap. Overload. Compare actual amps (measured) with nameplate rating. Single Phasing. Improper ventilation. Unbalanced voltage. Rotor rubbing on stator. Over voltage or under voltage. Open stator winding. Grounded winding. Improper connections. Bearing Over Heating Misalignment. Excessive belt tension. Excessive end thrust. Excessive grease in bearing. Insufficient grease in bearing. Dirt in bearing. Vibration Misalignment. Rubbing between rotating parts and stationary parts. Rotor out of balance. Resonance. Noise Growling or whining Foreign material in air gap or ventilation openings. Bad bearing. 3‐4 Maintenance & Troubleshooting Possible Solutions Check source of power. Check overloads, fuses, controls, etc. Check input line connections. Have motor serviced at local Baldor service center. Locate and remove source of excessive friction in motor or load. Reduce load or replace with motor of greater capacity. Check current at all phases (should be approximately equal) to isolate and correct the problem. Check external cooling fan to be sure air is moving properly across cooling fins. Excessive dirt build‐up on motor. Clean motor. Check voltage at all phases (should be approximately equal) to isolate and correct the problem. Check air gap clearance and bearings. Tighten “Thru Bolts”. Check input voltage at each phase to motor. Check stator resistance at all three phases for balance. Perform dielectric test and repair as required. Inspect all electrical connections for proper termination, clearance, mechanical strength and electrical continuity. Refer to motor lead connection diagram. Check and align motor and driven equipment. Reduce belt tension to proper point for load. Reduce the end thrust from driven machine. Remove grease until cavity is approximately 3/4 filled. Add grease until cavity is approximately 3/4 filled. Clean bearing cavity and bearing. Repack with correct grease until cavity is approximately 3/4 filled. Check and align motor and driven equipment. Isolate and eliminate cause of rubbing. Have rotor balance checked are repaired at your Baldor Service Center. Tune system or contact your Baldor Service Center for assistance. Remove rotor and foreign material. Reinstall rotor. Check insulation integrity. Clean ventilation openings. Replace bearing. Clean all grease from cavity and new bearing. Repack with correct grease until cavity is approximately 3/4 filled. MN400 Suggested bearing and winding RTD setting guidelines Most large frame AC Baldor motors with a 1.15 service factor are designed to operate below a Class B (80°C) temperature rise at rated load and are built with a Class H winding insulation system. Based on this low temperature rise, RTD (Resistance Temperature Detectors) settings for Class B rise should be used as a starting point. Some motors with 1.0 service factor have Class F temperature rise. The following tables show the suggested alarm and trip settings for RTDs. Proper bearing and winding RTD alarm and trip settings should be selected based on these tables unless otherwise specified for specific applications. If the driven load is found to operate well below the initial temperature settings under normal conditions, the alarm and trip settings may be reduced so that an abnormal machine load will be identified. The temperature limits are based on the installation of the winding RTDs imbedded in the winding as specified by NEMA. Bearing RTDs should be installed so they are in contact with the outer race on ball or roller bearings or in direct contact with the sleeve bearing shell.
