    2 BEARINGS

    The machine is provided with grease lubricated antifriction bearings, located in the

    shields. To prevent excessive lubrication the bearings are provided with a grease

    control device. This device presses out the excessive grease -through the opening of

    the external bearing cover -into a tank from where it can be removed at regular

    intervals. Replenishment of the grease can be carried out by means of a ball greaser

    with the aid of a lubricating press.

    The lubricant is SHELL ALVANlA RL2 grease. The bearings on one side are fixed

    while those of the other side are axially released to compensate for thermal dilatation.

    3 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

    3.1 STATOR

    3.1.1 STATOR HOUSING

    Its function is to hold the stator core and the winding, to protect the internal parts of

    the machine against moisture, dust, penetration of foreign particles, and against

    mechanical, thermical and other loads occurring in service.

    Furthermore, this housing ensures support for other connecting parts, shield, cooler,

    terminals, rotor, etc.

    The stator housing is a welded construction.

    Rigidity of the housing is ensured by the transversal main supports, the two end faces

    and the longitudinal ribs holding together these formerly mentioned parts.

    The cover is thin sheet. On the lower end of the housing a footplate can be found

    with the holes of the fixing screws, threaded holes of the lifting bolts and taper holes

    of the fitting studs on it.

    The top of the housing is open, the cooler is connected here.

    The shields are screwed on the fitting flanges of the end faces. The terminal

    openings are on the two sides of the machine, in the middle. Below each of these

    one respective earthing eye can be found. The auxiliary terminal box for RTD-s and

    space heater is on the right side of the main terminal box.

    3.1.2 STATOR CORE

    The stator core is entirely laminated to minimize eddy current losses. Stator

    laminations are made of insulated thin sheets of high-grade electrical steel. All stator

    cores are manufactured as self-supporting components outside the motor frame. This

    enables easy VPI treatment of the complete wound core. The core is fitted and

    doweled to the frame.

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

    3.1.3 STATOR WINDING

    MICASYSTEM, the Class F insulating system specially developed for stator windings

    of AC motors and generators, is used for voltage ratings from 1200 to 15000 V.

    This high-reliability, advanced insulating system is mainly based on the use of special

    mica tapes and on the vacuum-pressure impregnation with a blend of solventless

    epoxy resins. Due to the high mica content and the fully cured binder, the tape used

    for ground insulation has exceptional dielectric strength. The VPI treatment improves

    the dielectric properties of the insulating wall and helps to provide the thermal stability

    necessary to satisfy the Class F requirements of the applicable Standards.

    Due to the vacuum-pressure process, the resin fills all the voids in the insulation and

    between the insulation and the stator core. This result in a significant improvement in

    heat transfer between the winding and the core steel and prevents vibrations and

    relative movements of the coils in the slots.

    The coils are manufactured with rectangular copper wire, usually enameled and

    covered with glass yarn or insulated with mica tape (selection based on machine

    voltage and other functional parameters).

    After winding the conductors in bobbin form, the design shape of the coils is obtained

    by means of special forming machines. The ground insulation is applied by means of

    programmable taping machines. The number of layers depends on motor rated

    voltage. Armour tapes and corona suppressing materials are finally applied onto the

    coils as required, depending on rated voltage.

    Coils are then inserted into the stator slots and firmly held in place by means of glass

    laminate wedges. After all connections between coils are completed, the coil ends

    are tied together and braced by steel or polyester-fiberglass rings, using high-

    resistance conformable materials.

    After an oven drying process, the wound stators are impregnated under vacuum and

    pressure. The number and duration of VPI cycle phases are selected on the basis of

    the insulating wall thickness and the required degree of protection.

    The impregnated stators are then cured in oven. During the oven treatment the

    stators are rotated slowly by means of motor-driven rollers, to ensure a uniform

    distribution of the resin within the insulation.

    MICASYSTEM, which was developed through long-term research work and extensive

    testing, provides excellent dielectric and mechanical properties and all the other

    physical characteristics needed for the specific applications. The main features are:

    o outstanding mechanical strength, which allows the insulation to withstand the

    stresses which can occur during motor transient operation;

    o high resistance to long-term thermal overload and thermal cycling endurance

    evaluation results meet Class F requirements with ample margins;

    o outstanding resistance against moisture, tropical and marine environments,

    common chemical contaminants and polluting agents;

    o high surge voltage withstand capability;

    o high resistance against radioactive radiation.

    3.1.4 STATOR HEATING, SLIPRING SPACE HEATING

    The electric properties of the winding insulation, the laminated core and the other

    active structural elements are impaired by the humidity condensed on them in cold

    environment.

    Therefore, the machine is provided with anticondensation heating. The heaters are

    located in the lower part of the stator case. The heating can be operated both

    manually and automatically. Its function is to keep a certain temperature within the

    machine being out of operation preventing the condensation of the humidity

    without overheating the individual structural part of the machine. This heating is not

    suitable for heating out the machine. No operating automatics are supplied with it.

    3.1.5 LOCATION OF THE THERMOMETERS

    The thermal protection of the machines is ensured by slot RTD-s built in between the

    two coil sides. Thus, in each phase there are two Pt 100 Ohm RTD-s. Further 1 Pt

    100 thermometers measures the temperature of each bearing.

    Further thermometers and other instruments according to the Outline drawing and

    Wiring scheme.

    3.2 ROTOR

    3.2.1 SHAFT

    The machine is manufactured with welded ribbed shafts. The shafts are made of

    high-strength steel. There are longitudinal ribs and these are supported by

    transversal ones. Before welding the shaft and the ribs should be checked for cracks

    by ultrasonic tests and the quality of the seams should be checked by paint flowing

    test.

    3.2.2 LAMINATED ROTOR CORE

    The rotor core is also fully laminated. The rotor consists of a stack of full-circle

    laminations, which is shrunk onto the shaft.

    The laminated core is manufactured in jig and it is pulled on the ribbed shaft in hot

    state with overlapping. This shrinkage fit and a lock located in one of the

    longitudinal ribs ensure perfect torque transmission.

    3.2.3 ROTOR WINDING

    Due to the half-closed slots the double-layer wavy type rotor winding is pushed-in.

    The coils are fixed by plastic wedges. The insulation system complies with Class F

    requirements. The coil ends are supported by the insulated coil holding rings.

    The bars of the lower and upper layers of the winding are brazed together. Due to the

    occurring centrifugal force the end windings are fixed with prestressed glass bandage

    tape. The coil cross connections are formed on the counter drive side. The outlets

    are connected to the pins of the sliprings by means of cross sections retained on the

    shaft by glass bandage tape.

    3.2.4 SLIPRINGS

    The sliprings are made of steel. They are pulled on the insulated slipring hub in hot

    state. The secure the position of the outlet pins the hub is prevented from swivelling

    by means of a lock. The copper phase outlets are fixed with brazing.

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

    10

    The outlet pins, between the rings are hermetically closed. The complete slipring unit

    is impregnated in a vacuum oven.

    After pulling onto the shaft, the surfaces of the sliprings are machined so as to ensure

    coaxiality.

    3.2.5 BALANCING, VIBRATION, OVERSPEED TEST

    The finished rotor is dynamically balanced at rated speed without the coupling.

    Rotors for keyed coupling are balanced with half-key inserted in the shaft extension.

    After balancing the RMS value of the vibration velocity measured on bearings of the

    machine corresponds to the grade "good" of VDI Standards. For 2 minutes the rotor

    should be rotated at 1,2 times the rated speed.

    3.3 TERMINALS

    STATOR TERMINAL BOX

    The main terminal box can be found on the stator casing. The main terminal box is of

    welded steel on the aluminium terminal board on which there are the 3 main

    terminals. Current buses are made of electrolytic copper. In the rear wall of the

    terminal casing a lightened lobe is provided, which opens in case of incidental

    exploding, thus protecting the staff and the terminals. The terminal lid is grounded to

    the terminal casing and the terminal casing to the stator casing.

    3.3.1 ROTOR TERMINALS

    The rotor is similar to the stator terminal box.

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

    11

    3.4 BRUSHGEAR

    The brushgear is located in the slipring enclosure wich is connected to the stator

    case at the counter drive side of the motor, and closed by the bearing shield at the

    other end.

    The brushgear is fixed onto the brush bridge. In the slipring enclosure the brush

    bridges are retained by the brush holder pins. Insulated spacer rings are pulled on

    the section of the pins falling between the brush bridges. The brushes are pressed

    onto the surface of the sliprings by means of springs, the pressing force is:

    (1.8 - 2)x104 N/m

    2.

    The metal content of the brushes is approximately 70%, the brushes are designed to

    withstand a normal operation period of half year, depending on the environmental

    circumstances, like:

    o ambient temperature;

    o relative humidity content;

    o vibration level of the complete drive;

    o changing of the load.

    The optimum current density on the brushes RC 87 is cca 18 A/cm2 (~180 A/brush).

    In case of longer underloaded periods (installation period, reduced production

    capacity) the number of brushes should be reduced in order to provide the optimum

    brush current load.

    On the four sides of the brushes there is a groove, running along, ensuring that no

    brush powder should jam in the brush holder.

    3.5 VENTILATION

    3.5.1 INTERNAL VENTILATION CIRCUIT

    The inner ventilation of the motor is two-sided radial one. The hot air flowing upwards

    in the middle of the machine gets into the heat exchanger. Here-passing between the

    pipes- it cools down then gets back into the motor at the ends of the enclosure. The

    path of the airflow is ensured by deflecting and closing plates located in the cooler

    box

    3.5.2 AIR TO AIR HEAT EXCANGER

    On the drive counter side of the shaft there is an outer fan. This fan absorbs cold air

    through the grid cover of the fan enclosure. This cold air directed by deflecting plates

    is forced back into the air space through the pipes of the cooler. These pipes run

    parallel with the longitudinal axis of the machine and they are rolled in the walls-at the

    end of the cooler- by flanging. The cooling tubes made of aluminum.

    3.5.3 VENTILATION OF THE SLIPRING SPACE

    The slipring space is separated from the motor inner space. Its ventilation is provided

    by a small or separate fan.

    13

    3.5.4 CHANGING THE DIRECTION OF THE ROTATION

    Normally the machine is equipped a back-step blade ventilator, with clockwise or

    counter clockwise direction of rotation.

    If you want to change the direction of rotation:

    1, Remove the 6 pcs M8 [1] screws and washers

    2, Remove the mesh and the air baffle [2]

    3, Remove the 8 pcs M10 screws[3] and washers

    4, Remove the ventilator [3], turn it over and assembly again.

    4 OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    4.1 STORING, LIFTING

    If, after delivery, the machine is not installed in its final place it can be expediently

    stored in original factory packing. The temperature in the storeroom must not be

    below +5 C and the atmosphere of the room must be dry, free of dust and chemical

    vapours. The machine should be lifted by the lifting points formed on the stator

    enclosure and the lifting should be free of jerks. If the manufacturer supplies a

    separate lifting mechanism, it must be used. When selecting the proper lifting rope

    the total weight indicated on the rating plate should be taken into consideration.

    WARNING!

    In case the motor is stored for a longer period place thin insulating plates

    between the brushes and the slipring surface.

    4.2 INSTALLATION

    The architectural works have to be carried out as per the foundation drawing paying

    special attention to the exact location of the fixing bolts. The requirement to start the

    installation works is the proper machine foundation being true to size and loadable.

    Before the works after alignment the beams should be carefully degreased because

    the concrete will not set on a greasy or painted surface. After assigning the

    centerline of the machine group with the aid of the spacers and wedges located on

    the right and left sides of the fixing bolts the desired height level can be set as per

    the drawing but close attention has to be paid to the dimensions of the driven unit.

    It is very important that the base plate should not be distorted when tightening the

    fixing bolts. Otherwise, the non-uniform positioning of the machine will result in

    uneven running and vibration problems. When making the concrete structure great

    care should be taken to avoid the existence of continuous voids because these are

    liable to resonance. Prior to complete setting of the concrete it is strictly forbidden to

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    15

    load the base plate or to start the machine on it because owing to unavoidable

    vibrations the concrete and the plate disjoin and this may result again in vibration

    problems.

    4.3 COUPLING TO THE DRIVEN MACHINE

    The fine adjustment of the machine should be carried out by using the jacket on front

    surface of the coupling halves. The accuracy is checked by dial gauge and a gap

    gauge. If the manufacturer of the driven unit and the manufacturer of the coupling do

    not give a stricter value, the accuracy of the adjustment of the half couplings may be

    0.01-0.05 mm. The required corrections can be made by using insert plates.

    Instructions for aligning couplings

    The aim of the instructions given in the following is to attain proper alignment of the

    shaft extension without angular or parallel mismatch.

    This requirement can be fulfilled, as far as practically possible,by careful and

    accurate workmanship. The alignment instructions are basically valid for all rigid and

    flexible couplings and for all kinds of driven equipment. The manufacturers of the

    machines to be coupled must advise by how much the shaft centre heights will

    change under the influence of the operating and ambient temperatures. Based

    on these values it must then be decided how much radial displacement is to be set

    for the cold machine in order to have the ideal condition of zero misalignment at

    those operating and ambient temperatures expected to be most predominant.

    The relevant measurements require that the machine rotor can be turned.

    In the case of vertical machines with plain bearings (Segmental thrust and guide

    bearings) this can no longer be done manually above a certain machine size

    because of the high bearing frictional torques involved. At the same time there is

    also a danger that the bearing surfaces could be damaged by the slowly rotating

    rotor. Therefore, all vertical plain bearing machines must be provided with a lifting

    possibility at the top end of the shaft so that the rotor canbe suspended on the crane

    or other lifting device. The kind of lifting possibility must be clarified before alignment

    begins.

    If for example, in the case of a vertical machine with plain bearings, more exact

    values are required by the coupling

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    16

    manufacturer because of the coupling type, the radial clearance of the bearing can

    be reduced to a minimum by the employment of a special centering tool. Even with

    this reduced bearing clearance it must still be possible to turn the rotor. The

    employment of the afore- mentioned centering tool for erecting such vertical

    machines is described in a separate chapter.

    If a horizontal machine with plain bearings has been at standstill for a longer

    period of time, then the oil film between the bearing shells and the shaft will have

    been pressed out by the weight of the rotor i.e. the bearings will be dry. Therefore,

    before turning the rotor, approximately 100 ... 200 cm3 of oil must be manually fed

    into each bearing. This can be done through the openings in the top of the bearing

    housing. The oil should be poured in using a funnel. If the manufacturer has not

    given details for setting radial displacement on the cold machine, then the rule is that

    zero displacement should be set.

    Alignment

    The following must be observed when coupling two or more machines together:

    The coupling halves must be exactly aligned to each other, following the

    fundamental rule that the shaft train is to be exactly horizontal, or vertical for vertical

    machines, at the main coupling location. The shafts being coupled must naturally be

    exactly concentric to each other and the coupling end faces exactly parallel.

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    17

    4.4 ELECTRIC CONNECTION

    When connecting up the HV cables care must be taken to follow the right sequence.

    Have to reverse the sequence in case of counter clock wise (left) rotation direction.

    WARNING!

    The cooling fan must be rotated, if changing the

    rotation direction of air-to-air cooled machines!

    Inappropriate fan rotation direction cause overheating!

    Connection to the heating and thermometer terminals should be made as per the

    circuit diagram on the inner side of the cover. On both sides of the enclosure there is

    one respective earthing eye for the purpose of earthing.

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    18

    4.5 PUTTING INTO OPERATION

    In the course of the putting into operation the following checks and operations must

    be carried out:

    o Mechanical check. Mounting, alignment of coaxiality, checking of the rotor for

    free motion with separated coupling.

    o Checking of the electric connections. Checking of the correct phase sequence

    of the HV cable connections and that of the thermometer terminals serving for

    protection and indication purposes. The built-in thermometers should be

    separately checked for breakage and body contact.

    o Insulation resistance test. The stator winding can be considered dry if its

    insulation resistance measured and evaluated as per IEEE 43 Standards is:

    Rmin (Mom) = Urated (kV) + 1 at 40 C,

    and the minimum polarisation index for Class F insulation is equal to 2, where the

    polarisation index is:

    R10 minutes / R1 minute

    Machines provided with up-to-date insulation can comply with this requirement when

    stored under proper circumstances. If the humidity in the machine deteriorates the

    above value, heating out is required and it can be expediently carried out by the

    machine's own winding at reduced voltage and at approximately 60% current

    compared to the rated values. When checking the resistance continuously it can be

    observed that at the beginning of the heating out the value of the resistance

    decreases, then after reaching the minimum point it starts to increase again.

    When the value calculated with the aid of the formula is reached, heating out can be

    finished. In the case of heating out the phase coils with AC, their temperature must

    not be checked by means of a mercury thermometer.

    During heating out ventilation should be ensured so as to avoid overheating of

    certain structural parts.

    4.6 CHECKING OF THE BRUSH GEAR

    Use 2-3 mm spacer to check the distance between the brush holder and the slipring.

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    19

    Check if the brushes and brush holder sliding part can move freely and easily.

    Check the tightening of brush cable fixing screws.

    Check the surface of the sliprings from the point of view of roughness and patina

    layer.

    Check the brushes edges that there is no chipping.

    WARNING!

    In case the motor is stored for more than two years, change the brushes,

    because the cable tamping can be oxidised.

    4.7 STARTING

    The first starting must be carried out with disconnected coupling of the driving and

    driven units. It is expedient to run the machine unloaded for approximately three

    hours. If no irregularity is experienced, the linking of the coupling halves can be

    performed.

    At the first commissioning after a longer stoppage obviously the instructions of

    Chapter Putting into operation should be followed.

    4.8 MAINTENANCE

    In addition to daily observation the overall condition and operation of the motors, it is

    recommended that the machines be periodically and routinely checked for the

    impending need of corrective maintenance.

    A general maintenance program is given in the following table. Maintenance cycles

    may be changed in relation to the specific customer experience.

    (On the base of

    the operational

    experiences of

    the first period it

    may be varied.)

    Brushes: a.) Length a.) The wearing rate depends on the environmental

    vibration and the speed, too). See figure Length of

    brushes and chapter Change of brushes and brush

    holders.

    b.) Free motion in the

    brush holder

    b.) Check along the total length of the brushes.

    c.) Cables c.) Integrity of insulating tubes, tightness of the

    connecting screws.

    Slipring and brush

    structure insulators

    Clean with electric detergent and dry.*

    Slipring surface Check the patina (colour) of slipring running surface.

    WARNING!

    If the patina is damaged the following reasons can

    initiate it.

    - Captured brush in the brush holder and sparking

    - Loose contacts

    Find the reason and eliminate it.

    Slipring compartment If the compartment and the brushgear are not clean

    enough then clean them before the next start. Use

    vacuum cleaner, textile and even solvent if needed.

    * WARNING!

    REPAIRING OF THE SLIPRING COMPARTMENT AND THE BRUSH HOLDER STRUCTURE

    In case of any flash over in the slipring compartment, even if the slipring assembly seems to be

    uninjured, disconnect the slipring electrically from the rotor winding, and a voltage test should be

    performed with reduced / 80%/ test voltage.

    The same test should be done on the brush structure insulators.

    4.11 CHANGE OF BRUSHES AND BRUSH HOLDERS

    4.11.1 PRELIMINARY CHECK ON BRUSHES AND BRUSH HOLDERS

    Check the brushes before changing.

    o type of brushes ( they should be RC87)

    o cross section of brushes:

    dimensions, tolerance: 2,04,0

    32

    x 2,0

    4,032

    o see attached drawing

    Check the brush holders before changing of the brushes in them

    o check of cleanliness

    o check if it moves well

    o check the fixings

    o check if the holder has loose or injured parts (spring, screw etc.)

    If everything is OK. Leave as it is.

    In other cases repair or change them. Before changing check the size of brush

    holder dimensions (see the attached catalogue sheet).

    4.11.2 PUTTING NEW BRUSHES IN THE HOLDERS

    o Make the grinding and polishing of all the brushes

    o Check the brushes then as follows:

    If the running surface is min. 80 % then OK.

    o Measure and record the length of brushes

    o Make a map in order to identify the brushes

    o Clean the slipring compartment as above mentioned

    o Check the clearance between brush and brush holder (the right value is

    0,2-0,25 mm on each side).

    4.11.3 CHANGE OF BRUSH HOLDERS

    Do not modify the adjustment of holders even do not change them only in case of

    necessity (failure, damage, loosening etc.)

    o Use 2 - 3 mm spacer to set the distance between the holder and the slipring.

  • CG ELECTRIC SYSTEMS HUNGARY Zrt. OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

    23

    o Check the radiality visually. 2 - 3 difference can be recognised by visual

    inspection. The setting by visual observation is sufficient.

    o Check followings: fixing, proper moving.

    4.12 MAJOR OVERHAUL WITH REMOVING THE

    ROTOR FROM THE STATOR

    When the overhaul includes disassembly of the machine for this purpose a proper

    assembly room or at least a covered assembly place should be ensured. Its

    atmosphere must be free of acid vapours, corrosive gases and dust and its relative

    humidity must not exceed 60% while its temperature must not be below 10 C. The

    assembly space should be clean and free of cuttings.

    4.12.1 WORK STAGES

    o Disconnection of the terminal leads mains supply cable, earthing and

    thermometer terminals. Common marking of the terminals and connecting wire so

    as to facilitate correct connecting up.

    o Disconnection of the coupling.

    o Removal of the base plate fixing bolts and taper pins.

    o Taking the machine into the mounting space paying regard to the instructions for

    lifting.

    o Dismantling of the and shields and slide bearings, if applied , removal of the rotor

    as per the assembly drawing.

    o The following have to be checked:

    clamping of the stator end windings

    tightness of the slot closing wedges

    mechanical state of the brush holders.

    o Cleaning of the cooler is proposed only with mechanical method (pipe-brush).

    See Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instruction.

    o After checking and cleaning, the assembly of the machine is carried out obviously

    in reversed sequence. Both on disassembling and on assembling care must be

    taken to avoid damaging the matching surfaces.
