Principles of action of electrical motors and generators

Used to convert mechanical power into electrical energy or vice versa

All rely on electromagnetic induction

Rotating electrical machines are used to convert mechanical power into electrical energy or vice versa. All electrical machines, whether motors or generators using direct or alternating current, rely on the principles of electromagnetic induction for their action.

Principles of action of electrical motors and generators

A conductor moving across a magnetic field creates an electromotive force (emf)

Resulting current flow and magnetic field around the conductor tend to oppose the motion that is producing the emf

A conductor moving across a magnetic field becomes the seat of an electromotive force (emf). The direction of the emf is in the right angle to both the direction of the motion and the direction of the magnetic field.

The amount of "induced“ voltage depends upon the length of the conductor actually in the field, the speed of the relative motion between the conductor and the magnetic field, and the strength of the magnetic field.

Because of the direction or polarity of the induced emf, the resulting current flow and the magnetic field around the conductor produced by it tend to oppose the motion that is producing the emf. The principle of this action can be presented in best for instance, an elementary generator consisting of a loop of wire that is mechanically rotated within a magnetic field.

Principles of action of electrical motors and generators

single-phase machinedelta connection

In the illustration, A will always be moving in the opposite direction of B, relative to the magnetic field, and hence emf induced in A will be in the opposite direction to that of B.

These two emfs, therefore, add up when the coil sides are connected as shown. When the coil side A is in position 1, it will be moving parallel to the direction of the magnetic field. There is no relative motion across the field and no emf is induced. When the coil has rotated 90° to position 2, it will be moving at right angles to the field and an emf is induced towards the observer’s direction, as shown by the arrows. Slip ring R1 will, therefore, appear to have positive polarity with regard to R2.

After a further 90° rotation, coil side A will again be moving parallel to the direction of the field and no emf will be induced. After a 270° rotation, in position 4, the coil side will again be moving at right angles to the field and an emf will be induced in the opposite direction to that of position 2 since the direction of movement is now reversed. Slip ring R1 will now appear to have negative polarity with regard to R2. This elementary generator produces an emf that is alternating in direction with a complete cycle of positive and negative changes taking place once per revolution. Since it is relative motion between conductor and field, which includes the emf, it matters little whether the conductor is moving in a stationary field system or whether the field system is moving within stationary conductors.

The alternator described in this example is known as a single-phase machine because there is only one circuit where the emf is induced. It is possible to install 3 separate groups. Now the stator has three separate groups of coils spaced 120 electrical degrees apart round the stator core. The voltages in each of these "phases" reach maximum values at different times as the magnetic field passes them in succession. The voltage, which appears between any of the 3 machine terminals, is that of two-phase windings in series. Since these are 120° out of phase, the terminal voltage is 1.73 times that of the voltage of one phase.

Alternatively, the end of one coil group can be connected to the start of another to form a closed loop, the joints forming the terminal connections. This is known as the delta connection. The terminal voltage is the same as that of each phase and the line current is shared between the phase windings.

Bearing

Rotor

Here a high voltage motor/generator is illustrated. The basic construction of the AC induction motor is simple and has changed very little over the years. Next, we will discuss the basic components of a motor.

The stator windings are insulated copper wire, which are inserted into slots in the stator laminations. These slots have insulation between the windings and the steel laminations. This is called the "stator core". The different winding designs provide different output and speed combinations. The stator core is inserted into the stator frame. The ends of the winding are brought out through the motor casing to the terminal board in a terminal box mounted on the frame. This is where the mains leads are connected.

The rotor consists of laminations, the shaft, and the rotor winding or bars. The type of winding will depend on the type of motor required. If the rotor has a winding similar to that of the stator, it is known as a "wound rotor motor" (also known as a slip-ring motor). If the "winding" consists of solid bars that are joined at either end by a short-circuit ring, it is known as a "squirrel cage" motor. This is because the cage of the rotor resembles the cage that squirrels play with when in captivity. The bars are generally aluminum, but can be copper or any such material.

Aluminum is commonly used for LV induction motors and copper for HV motors and generators. The squirrel cage rotor motor is the most common type in use today as it requires simple control gear and, in most cases, can be used instead of a wound rotor motor. The stator core and rotor core constitute the active part of a motor. The bearings are used to support the shaft and to enable it to rotate.

Air gap betweenstator and rotor

When a three-phase AC voltage supply is connected to the stator windings, a rotating magnetic field is formed. This results a magnetic flux in the air gap where the torque of the motor is produced. The rotating magnetic fields produced by the stator induce a current into the conductive loops of the rotor. The rotor has conductive bars, which are short-circuited to form conductive closed loops.

The resulting form is similar to a squirrel cage. Once that occurs, the magnetic field causes forces to act on the current-carrying conductors, which results in a torque on the rotor.

Pole number

The pole number is the number of magnetizing poles generated by the stator winding

The pole number is the number of magnetizing poles generated by the stator winding. Poles exist in pairs, north and south poles, by the direction of the magnetic field, so the pole number is always an even number. One north pole (N) and one south pole (S) form one pole pair (p), and they follow each other.

Stator winding produces a rotating magnetic field when supplied with a three-phase AC system.

Magnetic field in a motor

The speed of the magnetic field rotating under a certain supply frequency depends on the pole number of the winding. Windings with different pole numbers differ from each other with regard to coil shape and location in the stator slots. Rotational speed of the magnetic field dependent on the winding pole number at 50 Hz supply frequency in the following way: 2-pole (2p=2) winding produces 3,000 rpm speed; 4-pole (2p=4) winding produces 1,500 rpm speed; 6-pole (2p=6) winding produces 1,000 rpm speed; and 8-pole (2p=8) winding produces 750 rpm speed. At 60 Hz supply frequency the speed values are 20 % higher. The abbreviation p stands for “pole pair number” and the abbreviation 2p means “pole number”.

Stator winding

Random winding

Form wound winding

Windings in a motor provide a path for the AC current to flow along, which, in turn, produces the rotating magnetic field that causes the rotor to rotate.

Winding is done by putting conductive copper into the stator slots so that the current flowing in the copper generates a rotating magnetic field in the air gap between the stator and the rotor. This magnetic field grabs the rotor bars and forces the rotor to rotate along with the magnetic field. In one slot there can be up to 150 turns of copper in random wound winding and up to 50 in form wound winding.

There are two basic stator winding styles: random winding and form wound winding.

In random winding the copper used in the winding is in the form of wire and in any one slot the turns are more or less in random order. There are many different ways of doing random winding - some are more suitable for machine winding, others have superior mechanical strength or desirable effects on efficiency. Random winding is the winding style used for most low voltage motors.

In form wound winding rectangular copper wires are used instead of round wires. Form wound winding is used when high voltage motors and generators are wound.

The stator winding design of the HV motors and generators combines the class F insulation system with vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI). This method has been used since 1977 and is well known for its high reliability. While the insulation meets the requirements of the thermal class F (temperature limit 155oC), the motors are normally rated to class B, which gives a good overload margin and provides a long life. The basic impulse level exceeds IEC requirements. The windings are designed to cope with the highest mechanical stresses, including the effects of rapid auto-reclosure in phase opposition.

Insulation

Insulation systems are dimensioned according to:

voltage level

Supply voltage type

environmental conditions

Endurance tests when new insulation systems are developed:

electrical aging

thermal aging

mechanical aging

aging due to surrounding conditions

combined aging

Insulation systems are dimensioned according to several factors: voltage level, supply voltage type (DOL = Direct On Line, PWM-converter, cycloconverter), environmental conditions, for example, height of the site above sea level, temperature, and humidity.

Endurance tests are needed when new insulation systems are developed. Typical endurance tests are electrical aging, thermal aging, mechanical aging (for example vibration), aging due to surrounding conditions, and combined aging (for example, thermal and electrical). Aging tests are typically very long lasting, even years. To reduce the time, they are normally done as so-called accelerated tests with higher stresses (for example, voltage and frequency and temperature) than in real operation. The life-times corresponding to the stresses in real operation can be calculated from these results.

When developing insulation systems, the manufacturing point of view also has to be taken into account, in other words, how to manufacture reliably and economically without occupational safety problems.

DC Motor stator winding

The main tasks of the DC motor stator:

produce a fixed magnetic flux to interact with the armature

house the commutating windings and compensation windings

Main components of the stator:

frame of laminated electroplates

main poles and interpoles of laminated electroplates,

stator windings and commutation windings of varnish-insulated copper wire

compensation windings (not DMI 180-225)

The windings in the motor provide a path for the DC current to flow along, which, in turn, produces the rotating magnetic field that causes the rotor to rotate.

The main task of the DC motor stator is to produce a fixed magnetic flux to interact with the armature. This is done by the excitation winding. The stator also houses the commutating windings and compensation windings, which are auxiliary devices that are used to prevent deformation of the main flux.

A compensation winding is installed on the magnetic poles of the stator to smoothen the field across the pole. Without the compensation winding the left side of the N-pole would get saturated because of the additional magnetic field.

Commutating windings or interpoles are installed between the magnetic poles to straighten the magnetic field.

Because of armature reaction, the magnetic field bends and causes misplacement in the inducted voltage at the armature winding.

The main components of the stator are: frame of laminated electroplates; main poles and interpoles of laminated electroplates; stator windings and commutation windings of varnish-insulated copper wire; and compensation windings (not DMI 180-225).

DC Insulation

Insulation system:

Armature coils and stator windings have dual insulation coats

Copper wire insulation, the Nomex and the impregnation varnish have a temperature index above class H

The motors comply with the requirements of Class 200 /H insulation. The insulation system is moisture-resistant and is suitable for use in tropical climates without modification. The armature coils and stator windings have dual insulation coats. The base coat is a polyesterimide with a top coat of polyamide-imideenamel. The insulation to earth is of amid fiber (Nomex). All windings are impregnated with varnish, which gives high mechanical strength.

The copper wire insulation, the Nomex and the impregnation varnish have a temperature index well above class H. There is, therefore, a high margin of safety in addition to the high overload capacity.

Torque and speed of an AC motor

locked-rotor torque

pull-up torque

breakdown torque

An asynchronous motor is a motor whose rotor does not rotate at exactly the same speed as the stator field. The locked-rotor torque is the minimum measured torque the motor develops at its shaft extension with the rotor stationary and the rated voltage and frequency applied.

The pull-up torque is the smallest torque the motor develops between zero speed and the speed corresponding to the breakdown torque when the motor is supplied with the rated voltage and frequency. This definition does not apply to induction motors, whose torque continuously decreases with increasing speed. This value applies to the usual mean torque characteristic, which excludes transient effects. The breakdown torque is the maximum torque the motor develops with the rated voltage and frequency applied at the operating temperature and when constantly loaded. This term does not apply to motors whose torque steadily decreases with increasing speed. They do not have definite breakdown torque. If the rotor is mechanically driven by an external machine at a speed that is greater than that of the rotating magnetic field, with the machine connected to the power network and the direction of rotation the same as that of the stator field, the asynchronous machine becomes an asynchronous generator. The asynchronous generator returns the power applied mechanically to its rotor as electric power to the network, in this case over-synchronously because the slip is negative. The rotor currents are reversed and the torque produced opposes the rotation of the machine, that is, it tends to retard it.

The synchronous speed can be calculated with the formulas

The speed of the rotating field is constant and it rotates at synchronous speed. The synchronous speed is dependent on the frequency and the pole number of the winding. The synchronous speed can be calculated with the formula shown in this slide. The synchronous speed of the motor is determined by the frequency of the supply voltage and the pole number of the motor. f in the formula stands for Electrical frequency in Hz (50Hz or 60 Hz).

AC Voltage versus time

An AC Voltage is defined by the value of volts and the frequency. p = Number of pole pairs (=number of poles / 2). The flux is rotated at a speed called "synchronous speed", corresponding to the electrical frequency of the network and to the number of pole pairs. As long as the rotor is rotated at synchronous speed, no current is induced in the rotor bar, and consequently no torque is developed by the motor. Current only exists in the rotor bar if the speed of the rotor (n) is below the synchronous speed (as soon as a load torque is applied to the shaft), which means that the speed of the rotor does not rotate at synchronous speed, and the rotor speed lags behind the speed of the magnetic field. In a case of generating, the speed of the rotor is above the synchronous speed.

AC Torque curve

The difference between the rotating speed of the flux and the rotating speed of the rotor is called the slip of an asynchronous motor (the opposite of synchronous machines, where no slip exists, even in the presence of load torque).

Torque v.s. speed for Asynchronous motor

The illustration shows the effect of increased speed on torque for an asynchronous motor. The magnitude of the (mechanical) torque available at the shaft depends on the magnitude of the slip – that is, on the amount the rotor speed lags behind the speed of the rotating magnetic field. The relationship between the torque and the speed of the motor is illustrated by the speed-torque characteristic.

Torque

An increase in power increases the torque, whereas an increase in speed decreases the torque

T = Torque (Nm)

P = Output power (kW)

n = Speed (r/min)

Torque is generated when the magnetic field of the stator winding forces the rotor bars to turn around the centre of the axis shaft. From the equation one can see that an increase in power increases the torque, whereas an increase in speed decreases the torque. These three features are bound by the fact that T * n / P is always 9550. In the equation: T = Torque (Nm); P = Output power (kW); and n = Speed (r/min). When calculating torque, it is important to take into account: the starting torque; the maximum torque; the starting current; and the minimum torque.

Torque

This graph is typical for an LV motor. It shows the Torque/speed curve. The shape of the torque/speed curve is determined by the slot shapes and slot alignment in the stator and rotor. The level of the Nominal torque is determined by the winding (number of turns). According to IEC, the maximum torque (Tmax) of the motor should always be more than 1.6 times the nominal torque (Tn). At a speed of 0 rpm the motor can give starting torque (Ts). This Ts should be big enough to counter the decelerating masses of the load and rotating rotor body in less than the given maximum permitted starting time.

Torque

This graph is typical for an MV or large motor. The minimum torque (Tmin) is not always at 0 rpm, for example a double cage rotor has minimum torque at around 0.7 times the nominal speed. This should be taken into account when dimensioning motors for constant torque applications. At direct-on-line start the torque produced by the motor has to be greater than the load torque (with reasonable gap) at any speed. If the load torque at any speed is greater than the torque created by the motor, the motor will not be able to start or achieve nominal speed.

(1) The output torque of the motor is proportional to the armature current as long as (2)the excitation is kept constant.

(3) If the output torque exceeds the load torque, there is acceleration torque and the speed of the motor starts to increase.

(4) The armature current and, accordingly, the output torque can be increased by increasing the voltage supplied by the DC converter.

(5) When the armature starts to rotate through the magnetic flux of the stator, a voltage (emf) is induced, the polarity of which is the opposite of the supply voltage.

(6) To maintain the current (and torque), the supply voltage has to be increased as the speed and armature emf increase. The speed can be controlled by the supply voltage until the nominal armature voltage has been reached.

(7) This normally coincides with reaching the maximum output voltage of the supplying DC converter. The speed range from standstill up to this point is called the basic speed range. To increase the speed above the basic speed range, the armature emf has to be decreased.

As we have seen (5), the armature emf depends on excitation as well as speed. The speed can be further increased by decreasing the excitation (7). However, since torque is a direct function of excitation (2), from this point on the available torque decreases in inverse proportion to the speed. This speed range is called the field weakening speed range. For motors without compensation windings the relationship between basic and field weakening speed range is 1:3, and for compensated motors 1:5. The ultimate speed limit of a DC motor is set by mechanical parameters.

As is evident from equations 1 and 2, it is also possible to control the magnitude and direction of the torque entirely by varying the field current. Nevertheless, this is rarely done in modern drives, because the excitation winding has a much higher impedance than the armature, which makes torque by this method slower.

This graph demonstrates the relationship between torque and rotational speed (RPM).

Maximum torque is generated when the rotor is stationary and to a very low speed. In the range for Constant power, torque drops off sharply, while the power generated is at a maximum.

The commutation limit is where both torque and power fall due to limitation of current flow by the resistance of commutator brushes and the maximum voltage that can be applied across each winding.

The mechanical limit is the maximum safe speed of the rotor.

In the Constant Torque range, power developed rises sharply until it reaches its maximum. This maximum power output is maintained across a range of rotation speed.

Again, the limitations of the commutator design for DC motors is shown by the fall of the power generated even as the motor speed increases.

The simplest way to start a squirrel cage motor is to connect it directly to the mains supply. When it is connected directly to the mains supply, a direct-on-line (DOL) starter is the only starting equipment required. However, the limitation with this method is that it results in a high starting current. Still, it is the preferred method, unless there are special reasons for avoiding it.

The graph shows a Y-D start where the starting current is about 2,2 times the nominal current. The torque values in the Y connection are much lower than in the D connection, which is why dimensioning motors for Y-D starts should be done with care, especially in bigger motors.

If it is necessary to restrict the starting current of a motor due to supply limitations, the Y/D method can be employed. This method where, for instance, a motor wound 400 VD is started with the winding Y connected will reduce the starting current to about 30 per cent of the value for direct starting. The starting torque will be reduced to about 27 per cent of the DOL value.

However, before using this method, one must first determine whether the reduced motor torque is sufficient to accelerate the load over the whole speed range.

The starting time depends on the characteristics of the load and on the starting method. Large inertias of the load will cause long starting times, which can cause overheating in the motor.

It is important to remember that the term ‘starting current’ refers to the steady-state rms value. This is the value measured when, after a few cycles, the transient phenomena have died out. The transient current, the peak value, may be about 2.5 times the steady-state starting current, but it decays rapidly. The starting torque of the motor behaves in a similar way, and this should be taken into account if the moment of inertia of the driven machine is high, since the stresses on the shaft and coupling can be very great.

Power factor

ϕ= cos*I*U*3PINPUT

The power factor indicates the need of reactive power Q compared with effective power P. A power factor of 1.0 means that the machine only draws effective power from the supplying network. The power factor of the induction motor should be 0.85-0.95. Power factors are likely to be lower in certain special cases, for example with multi-speed motors, motors with a high pole number, down-rated motors, and motors with frame sizes below 100. The power factor is determined by measuring the input power, voltage, and current at the rated output. The effective input power (active power) in the motor is given by the formula.

Benefits of a high power factor

Feasible to transmit only effective power through the electrical network

Production or compensation can be made with synchronous machines or capacitors

A high power factor has the following benefits:

It is feasible to transmit only effective power through the electrical network, so if the motor draws reactive power from the network, Q should be produced somewhere near the load. Production or compensation can be made with synchronous machines or capacitors. Power companies charge more for this compensation than the price of effective power P, hence a high power factor is a desirable feature in an electrical motor.

Efficiency

ABB Motors are designed to meet changing world attitudes towards energy efficiency and motor performance. For instance, by increasing the efficiency in the production processes, and installing energy-efficient devices, industrial processes will consume less electricity and by this play a significant part in reducing CO2 emissions. An energy-efficient motor produces the same output power (torque) but uses less electrical input power (kW) than a motor with lower efficiency

IEC offers two ways of measuring efficiencyDirect method

Measurement of the input power based on voltage and current, and the output power based on rotational speed and torgueNo change compared to the old IEC 60034-2

Indirect methodMeasurement of the input power and calculation of the output power based on the losses of motor

Specifies following parameters for measuring efficiency according to indirect method:

Reference temperatureThree alternatives for determining additional load losses

MeasurementAssigned valueMathematical calculation

Efficiency measurement methods IEC 60034-2-1; 2007

Using the direct method, the MECHANICAL power on the shaft and the ELECTRICAL power on the terminals have to be measured.

The efficiency is then calculated as the ratio between the mechanical and the electrical power.

As it is very difficult and expensive to purchase and maintain equipment to measure the exact mechanical power, the indirect method is used.

Using indirect method, measurement of the torque and speed is carried out at different loads. Based on these measurements, the additional load losses are calculated.

Indirect method is also called the summation of losses method.

IEC’s new method is closer to the IEEE method

Winding, rotor, iron and frictions losses can be determined from input power, voltage, current, rotational speed and torgue

Additional losses PLL are much more difficult to determine

IEC/EN 60034-2-1 specifies different methods to determine the additional losses :

Low uncertainty – measurement (IEEE 112-B & CSA390-98)

Medium uncertainty – assigned value and/or mathematical calculation

High uncertainty – assigned value

Which method can be used depends on the motor efficiency class determined by IEC/EN 60034-30

IEC 60034-2-1; 2007Losses and uncertainty of measurement

You can find more detailed information about the low, medium and high uncertainty from Table 2 in the IEC/EN 60034-2-1 standard.

IEC/EN 60034-30 defines which IE classes are connected to which method.

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC):

International standards and conformity assessment body for all fields of electrotechnology

Created in 1906

Head office in Geneva, Switzerland

Standards cover the whole electromechanical branch

Status of the IEC standards not strong: national electrical standards are in common use in many countries

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is the international standards and conformity assessment body for all fields of electrotechnology. It was created in 1906 and the commission's head office is situated in Geneva, Switzerland. The membership consists of more than 50 participating countries, including all the world's major trading nations and a growing number of industrializing countries.

(http://www.iec.ch/home-e.htm). The standards cover the whole electromechanical branch. The essential content of the rotating electrical machine standardization is in section 34 "Rotating electrical machines", where there are 18 parts. Each part covers a particular issue in the rotating electrical machine’s construction or performance. The main problem with the IEC standards is that their status in the world is not strong enough; national electrical standards are in common use in many countries.

IEC compared to NEMA

Temperature rise:

similar rules

Tolerances:

IEC defines some tolerances, but in NEMA standards these are so-called guaranteed values

Methods of cooling and enclosure:

IEC defines a very detailed numeric coding system, but NEMA standards are more general

Starting characteristics:

differences in the starting characteristics for normal starting torque cage motors; locked rotor apparent power versus kW rating is also different.

Normally, if the NEMA standards are fulfilled, the corresponding IEC standards are also fulfilled. However, if the IEC standards are fulfilled, the corresponding NEMA standards are not necessarily fulfilled. The main differences and some comments on the similarities are discussed in the following:

1. Temperature rise: IEC and NEMA include similar rules for the adjustment of temperature rise as a function of non-standard coolant air, coolant water and/or altitude. There are some variations in the allowed temperature rise: a higher temperature rise is allowed in service factor 1.15 of the NEMA standard. Generally, a higher or equal temperature rise is allowed in the NEMA standards than in the IEC standards. Note that IEC and NEMA define the maximum allowed temperature rise in a different way when the ambient temperature is more than 40 ºC.

2. Tolerances: IEC defines some tolerances in efficiency, locked rotor current and power factor, but in the NEMA standards these are so-called guaranteed values.

3. Methods of cooling and enclosure: The IEC standards define a very detailed numeric coding system whereas the NEMA standards describe the cooling and enclosure systems more generally.

4. Starting characteristics: There are some differences in the starting characteristics for normal starting torque cage motors; locked rotor apparent power versus kW rating is also different. BU Motors and Generators strongly support the drive to harmonize European standards and actively contribute to various working groups within both the IEC and CENELEC.

The nominal tolerances given by the IEC are large and easily met; with the current manufacturing technology, the quality variation is smaller than that allowed by IEC. Some of our competitors may use this and ride with the IEC tolerances to gain benefit or hide their weaknesses. This line is not encouraged by ABB but is something worth keeping in mind.

The table shows the eelectric tolerances according to IEC 60034-1. See the graph in the next slide for term definitions.

The duty types S1-S3 will be discussed in the following.

S1 is a continuous duty that is an operation at constant load long enough for thermal equilibrium to be reached.

S2 is a short time duty that is an operation at constant load for a given time that is shorter than the time needed to reach thermal equilibrium, followed by a rest and a de-energized period that is long enough to allow the motor to reach a temperature within 2 K of that of the coolant.

S3 is an intermittent duty that is a sequence of identical duty cycles, each including a period of operation at constant load and a rest and a de-energized period. In this duty type the cycle of the starting current does not significantly affect the temperature rise. The load period is generally not long enough for thermal equilibrium to be reached.

The illustration shows the characteristics of duty types S1, S2 and S3.

In the illustration: P = output, PV = power losses, Q = temperature, tB = load period, tS = cycle duration, and tSt = rest period.

How is the IE class marked ?

Example of the ABB’s new rating plate

Rating plate marking required

The lowest efficiency value and theassociated IE-code

Efficiency at the full rated load andvoltage (%), 75% and 50%

Year of manufacture

ABB has taken the new rating platedesign into use in 2009 for all themotors valid according to IEC/EN60034-30

As standard ABB will stamp 400V,415V and 690V 50Hz and theefficiency value is given for 400V

Material stainless steel

IEC/EN 60034-30 defines:

As a minimum, the lowest efficiency value and the associated IE-code (of all rated voltage/frequency/output combinations) shall always be printed on the rating plate.

ABB will follow the standard.

ABB motor design is normally optimized to 400V/50Hz operating point, and has highest efficiency in that point. Therefore 400V/50Hz value shall be the one we mark. If the motor is designed to other voltage/frequency, that will be the IE value stamped on the rating plate. All other voltage ratings, which have the same or higher efficiency may be in the same rating plate. Other ratings having lower IE value, need their own separate rating plate.

ABB has taken the new rating plate design into use in 2009. Efficiency logo eff1 or eff2 has been removed and new IEC/EN 60034-30 defined IE rating must be in all our motors.

Symbols for degree and protectionIP code

IEC 60034-5 and NEMA MG 1 Part 5

In the International Protection code (IP code), the first characteristic numeral indicates the degree of protection against contact and ingress of foreign bodies and the second indicates the degree of protection against ingress of water.

When necessary, the degrees of protection for electrical motors/generators may have the following letters added after the second numeral:

W = open weather-protected motor/generator (NEMA specifies after the IP Code),

S = motor/generator tested for harmful ingress of water at standstill, and

M = motor/generator tested for harmful ingress of water when running.

IP protection is protection of persons against getting in contact with (or approaching) live parts and against contact with moving parts inside the enclosure. Also protection of the machine against ingress of solid foreign objects. Protection of machines aginst the harmful effects due to the ingress of water.

Classification of degrees fo protection provided by enclosures of rotating machines refers to Standard IEC 60034-5 or EN 60529 for IP code.

Insulation

ABB uses class F insulation systems, which, with temperature rise B, is the most common requirement among industry today.

The use of Class F insulation with Class B temperature rise gives ABB products a 25° C safety margin. This can be used to increase the loading by up to 12 per cent for limited periods, to operate at higher ambient temperatures or altitudes, or with greater voltage and frequency

tolerances. It can also be used to extend insulation life. For instance, a 10 K temperature reduction will extend the insulation life.

Frequency converter drives Customer values

Squirrel cage induction motors offer excellent availability, reliability and efficiency. With a frequency converter – a variable speed drive (VSD) – the motor will deliver even better value. A variable speed drive motor can be started softly with low starting current, and the speed can be controlled and adjusted to suit the application demand without steps over a wide range. Also the use of a frequency converter together with a squirrel cage motor usually leads to remarkable energy and environmental savings.

Speed control has several benefits: it allows accurate process control, and thus creates better end product quality. Speed control also creates less stress to mechanics and electrical network due to soft starting and precise control. It increases production capacity without additional investments.

An AC induction motor, that is, an asynchronous squirrel cage AC motor, is most commonly used in industry. It has some basic advantages like robust design, simple construction, high IP class, and so on. An asynchronous motor needs frequency converter to control its speed.

A modern frequency converter has many advanced protection features that protect the drive itself, equipment connected to the drive and even the production process. It has inbuilt programmability that allows it to control a production process without an additional external controller, or PLC. Programmability means the user can fine tune the variable speed drive, or VSD, to get the most out of the whole equipment.

Requirements for the flexibility and accuracy of external control methods can best be fulfilled with a modern VSD which can be connected to just about any fieldbus or analog or digital control signal. Even remote monitoring via the Internet is possible.

ISO 1940/2: Balance quality requirements for rigidrotors, Part 2

ISO 11342: Methods and criteria for the balancing offlexible rotors

Balancing quality grades:

G2, 5 for medium and large armatures with specialrequirements

G6, 3 for medium and large armatures without specialrequirements

The following standards cover the balancing of the rotor construction:

ISO 1940/1 for mechanical vibration covers the balance quality requirements for rigid rotors in Part 1: Determination of permissible residual unbalance.

ISO 1940/2 for mechanical vibration covers the balance quality requirements for rigid rotors in Part 2: Balance errors.

ISO 11342 for mechanical vibration covers the methods and criteria for the balancing of flexible rotors.

Imbalance is a condition, which exists in a rotor when a vibratory force or motion is imparted to its bearings as a result of centrifugal forces.

The balancing quality grades are:

G2, 5 for medium and large armatures with special requirements and

G6, 3 for medium and large armatures without special requirements.

As standard, rotors are balanced with half key; the coupling must also be balanced with half key. The balancing procedure is permanently marked on the shaft end with 'H' (H = half key, F = full key).

Vibration

Vibration is a response of a system to an internal orexternal stimulus causing it to oscillate or pulsate

Three important parameters:

frequency

amplitude

phase

Vibration is the response of a system to an internal or external stimulus causing it to oscillate or pulsate. While it is commonly thought that vibration itself damages motors and structures, it does not. The damage is done by dynamic stresses that cause fatigue in the materials. The dynamic stresses are included in the vibration.

Vibration has three important parameters, which can be measured:

Frequency, that is, how many times does the motor or structure vibrate per minute or per second.

Amplitude, that is, how much is the vibration in microns, mm/s or g's.

Phase, that is, how is the member vibrating in relation to the reference point.

The following standards cover mechanical vibration:

ISO 10816- Mechanical vibration: Evaluation of machine vibration by measurement of non-rotating parts,

NEMA MG 1, Part 7: Mechanical vibration - Measurement, evaluation and limits,

ISO 7919: Mechanical vibration of non-reciprocating machines - Measurement of rotating shafts and evaluation criteria, and

IEC 60034-14: Mechanical vibration of certain machines with shaft heights of 56 mm and higher -Measurement, evaluation and limits.
