Self ventilated motors must be equipped with a PTC temperature monitoring device for
speed control by means of a frequency inverter.
Force ventilated motors may be loaded with nominal torque for the complete speed range.
Connect force ventilators to a separate terminal board on the fan cover.
Heed type plate details of the force ventilator or see separate terminal connection
diagram.
The power output of the frequency inverter must correspond to the motor power.
- Where applicable the power of the inverter can be customized to the motor rating by
adjusting the parameters.
The pump requires a higher torque to start (breakaway torque).
- This required torque can only be achieved by frequency inverters, which make 1.5
times the rated current for the motor available for at least 30s.
- The operating torque is approximately constant throughout the whole speed range
where the conveying pressure remains constant.
Head the following frequency inverter characteristic curves (Item 1.3.1, 1.3.2).
- The quadratic characteristic curve, which is frequently designated the pump and
ventilator characteristic curve, is not suitable for progressive cavity pumps

IMPORTANT NOTE
Consult the sticker adjacent to the fill plug to determine
the type of lubricant installed at the factory. Some units
have special lubricants designed to operate in certain
environments or intended to extend the service life or
service temperature range of the lubricant. If in doubt
about which lubricant is needed for a certain applica-
tion, please contact NORD Gear.
The VL3 dry cavity design adds additional oil leak protective measures to the VL2 spread bearing design. NORD’s
QuadralipTM sealing system prevents oil from leaking from the gearbox into the VL2 flange. If in any case oil
does leak past the QuadralipTM seals, it would flow down to the oil slinger mounted onto the shaft. As the shaft
rotates, the oil will sling off into the dry cavity. A sight tube is provided for dry cavity inspection. At the bottom
of the spread bearing flange is greased packed, double lip seal.
3. Service Guidelines for the Extended Bearing Flange
The spherical roller bearing on the extended bearing housing should be re-greased with 0.75 to 1.0 ounces (20-25
grams) of grease after every 2,500 hours of service or at least every 6 months. Prior to re-greasing the screw plug
located opposite to the grease nipple should be unscrewed. After re-greasing the screw plug must be reinstalled
and tightened. The extended bearing is factory assembled with the proper amount and type of grease. The type
of grease supplied depends upon the type of oil specified at time of order.

FG or FG-PAO NLGI 2 Polyurea FG-PAO -30 to 80ºC (-22 to 176ºF) Mobil SHC Polyrex 222
NOTICE
Grease compatibility depends upon the type of thickener or soap complex used, the base oil type
suspended within the thickener, and the type of additives used. The user should check with the
lubrication supplier before making substitutions in brand and type in order to assure compatibility and to
avoid causing possible damage to the extended bearing.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Use caution when specifying gear reducers for high
temperature service. If there is concern about exceeding
the allowable safe operating temperatures, please consult
NORD to discuss alternatives.

Brake Operation
The standard NORD motor brake is “spring-set”. When pow-
er is removed and the brake is de-energized (power-off), the
brake springs exert a force against the armature plate in
turn preventing the brake rotor (or brake disc) from rotat-
ing. When the brake coil is energized (power-on), a magnetic
field builds and pulls the armature plate across the air gap to
the brake casing, which releases the brake rotor and allows
the motor shaft to rotate.

Automatic Lubricator
Some NORD gear units with NEMA (or IEC) adapters rang-
ing in size from N250TC-N400TC (or IEC160-IEC315) are sup-
plied with a factory-installed, field-activated, PERMA® Classic
Automatic Lubrication Cartridge. The automatic lubricator is
used to dispense lubricant to the outer most roller bearing
of the input NEMA (or IEC) input assembly. The lubrication
cartridge must be activated prior to commissioning the gear
unit. (Figures 1 & 2)
Some newer versions of the NEMA (or IEC) adapters also in-
clude a grease purge. The grease purge area is sealed for
transportation; however, it is recommended that the G1/4
sealing screw be removed and that the grease collection con-
tainer provided by NORD be installed just prior to activating
the automatic lubricant dispenser. (Figure 3)

NOTICE
DO NOT DRIVE or HAMMER the coupling hub, pulley,
sprocket, or gear into place. An endwise blow to the
reducer shaft can generate damaging axial forces and
cause damage to the reducer housing, bearings or internal
components.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury the user must provide suitable
safety guards for all rotating shafts and shaft compo-
nents such as couplings, chain drives, belt drives, etc. All
guarding must adhere to local regulations and safety
standards.

NOTICE
Grease compatibility depends upon the type of thickener or soap complex used, the base oil type suspended within the
thickener, and the type of additives used. The user should check with the lubrication supplier before making substitutions
in brand and type in order to assure compatibility and to avoid causing damage to the extended bearing.

Motors – Operating and Assembly Instructions
1 General
These operating instructions must be read before NORD motors are transported, installed,
commissioned, serviced or repaired. All persons who are involved in these tasks must observe these
operating instructions. In order to prevent injury or damage, all of the safety information in these
operating instructions must be strictly observed.
The information and instructions in the instructions, safety and commissioning information which is
supplied, as well as all other instructions must be observed.
This is essential to prevent injury and damage.
The applicable national, local and plant-specific regulations and requirements and regulations must be
observed.
Technical details may vary for special designs and constructions. In case of doubt, we urgently
recommend that the manufacturer is contacted, giving details of the type designation and the
motor number.
Qualified personnel are persons who due to their training, experience and instruction, and their
knowledge of the relevant standards, accident prevention regulations and operating conditions are
authorised to carry out the necessary activities.
This also includes knowledge of first aid measures and the local emergency services.
It is assumed that the work for transport, assembly, installation, commissioning, maintenance and
repair will be performed by qualified staff.
In particular, the following must be observed:
• Technical data and information regarding permissible use, installation, connection, ambient and
operating conditions, which are contained in the catalogue, the order documents and other
documentation for the product.
• Local and plant-specific regulations and requirements
• Correct use of tools, lifting and transportation equipment
• Use of personal protective equipment
For reasons of clarity, the operating instructions do not contain detailed information about possible
versions and therefore do not consider all possible cases of installation, operation or servicing.
Because of this, these operating instruction essentially only contain the information which is necessary
for proper use by qualified personnel.
In order to prevent faults it is necessary that the prescribed service and inspection work is carried out
by appropriately qualified personnel.
• For the operation on an inverter, the planning guideline B1091-1 forms a part of these operating
instructions.
• The supplementary operating instructions must be observed if an external fan is present.
• For braking motors, the supplementary brake operating instructions must be observed..
If the operating instructions or the planning guide are lost for any reason, these documents must be
obtained from NORD.

Motors – Operating and Assembly Instructions
To prevent damage to the motor, the motor must always be used with suitable lifting equipment. The
roller bearings should be replaced if the time from delivery to commissioning of the motor exceeds 4
years in good conditions (storage in dry, dust and vibration-free areas). This time is greatly reduced in
case of unfavourable conditions. If necessary, unprotected machined surfaces (flange surfaces, shaft
ends) must be treated with corrosion inhibitors. If necessary, the insulating resistance of the windings
must be checked ( 1.3.8 "Checking the insulation resistance").
Changes in comparison with normal operation (higher current consumption, higher temperatures or
vibrations, unusual noises or smells, triggering of monitoring devices, etc.) are indications that the
function is impaired. To prevent injury and damage, the responsible maintenance personnel must be
informed of these changes.
In case of doubt, switch off the motor as soon as the state of the plant permits.

• After installation, screwed-on lifting lugs must be tightened or removed.
• Smooth running: Precise alignment of the clutch and a well-balanced drive element (clutch, pulleys,
fan, etc.) are prerequisites for smooth vibration-free running.
• Complete balancing of the motor and the drive elements may be necessary.
• The top section of the terminal box and the position of the terminal box can be rotated by 4 x 90
degrees.
• Even if not required, on IEC B14 motors all four fixing screws, must be screwed into the flanged
bearing plate! The fixing screw threads must be inserted with a sealant, e.g. Loctite 242.
• The motor must be inspected for damage before installation and commissioning. A damaged motor
must not be commissioned.
• Rotating shaft ends and unused shaft ends must be protected against contact. Unused parallel
shaft keys must be secured against being thrown out.
• The motor must be suitable for the installation location. (requirements prescribed by standards,
ambient conditions, installation altitude)
• Motor surfaces may become very hot during operation. Suitable protective measures must be
taken if there is a danger of contact or a hazard to the vicinity of the installation.

Motors – Operating and Assembly Instructions
The insulation system used by NORD consists of suitable varnished copper wire, phase insulation,
homogeneous impregnation and groove lining as insulation against earth, and in the standard version
is designed for the increased requirements for link circuit inverters.
The maximum permissible FI input voltage is 500 V +10%. Link circuit voltages in excess of 750 V DC
are not permissible. When the motor is warm due to operation, the peak voltages due to the system,
the inverter, the cable or the motor must not exceed the following values.
If the values are outside of the permissible range, du/dt or sine wave filters may be used (not the
additional voltage drop).
The cable lengths shown in the diagram are for guidance only and may deviate according to the
specific conditions.
For additional information for operation with a frequency inverter, especially with regard to information
about the maximum speed, thermal design and possible torques, please refer to the current NORD
motor catalogue M7000.

1.3.9 Commissioning
Production of interference: In cases of large differences of torque (e.g. when driving a piston
compressor) a non-sine wave motor current is induced, whose harmonics can cause an impermissible
effect on the mains and therefore impermissible production of interference.
With supply by frequency inverters, various strengths of interference are produced according to the
design of the frequency inverter (type, interference suppression, manufacturer). The EMC information
of the inverter manufacturer must be observed. If a shielded motor supply cable is recommended, the
shielding is most effective if a large area is electrically connected to the metal terminal box of the
motor (with metal EMC cable gland). With motors with integrated sensors (e.g. thermistors)
interference voltages due to the inverter may be produced in the sensor cables.
B 1091 en-2319 17
361
Motors – Operating and Assembly Instructions
Interference immunity: For motors with integrated sensors (e.g. thermistors) the operator must
ensure adequate immunity to interference by the selection of a suitable sensor cable (possibly with
screening, with connection as for the motor supply cable) and evaluation device. The information and
instructions in the operating instructions for the inverter and all other instructions must be observed
before commissioning. After installation of the motor, it must be checked for correct functioning. In the
case of brake motors, the correct function of the brake must also be checked.

3.3.12 Maintenance
The voltage must always be switched off and secured against being switched on again before
opening the motor!
Notice! Higher temperatures than the maximum permitted surface temperature of the housing
may be present inside the motor. The motor must therefore never be opened in hazardous dust
atmospheres! The motors must be checked and tested regularly for functional safety! The
applicable national standards and regulations must be complied with!
Impermissibly thick dust deposits > 5 mm must not be allowed to build up! If functional safety cannot
be ensured, the motor may not be operated! When the ball bearings are replaced, the rotary shaft
seals must also be replaced. FKM rotary shaft seals as specified by Getriebebau NORD must be
used. Ensure that they are fitted correctly! The rotary shaft seals must be lubricated on the external
rings and on the seal lips. If an explosion protected gear is flanged dust-tight to the motor, an NBR
rotary shaft seal can be used on the drive side of the motor if the gear oil temperature does not
exceed 85°C. Only original parts may be used as spare parts with the exception of standardised,
commercially available and equivalent parts. This particularly applies to seals and connection
components. Parts for terminal boxes or spare parts for external grounding must be ordered as per the
spare parts list in the operating instructions.
The functionality of seals, rotary shaft seals and cable glands must be regularly checked!
Maintaining dust protection for the motors is of paramount importance for explosion
protection. Maintenance must be carried out by qualified personnel in a specialist workshop with
appropriate equipment. We urgently recommend that the general overhaul is carried out by NORD
Service.

The power supply to the external fan is provided separately via the terminal box of the external fan.
The supply voltage of the external fan must comply with the voltage which is stated on the type plate.
The external fan must be protected against overheating with suitable monitoring equipment! The IP
protection class of the external fan may differ from that of the motor. The lower protection class
applies for the drive unit. The cable glands must as a minimum correspond to the protection class
which is specified on the type plate. Unused openings must be closed with plugs, which as a minimum
correspond to the protection class of the motor.
External fans and motors for use in explosion hazard areas have Ex labelling according to RL 94/9
EEC or 2014/34/EU. The labelling must be present on both the external fan and the motor. If there is a
difference between the labelling on the external fan and the motor, the lower labelled explosion
protection applies for the entire drive unit. The details of surface temperatures apply for the entire
drive unit; the stated max, temperature applies for the individual components. Any gear unit which is
present must also be taken into account. Please contact Getriebebau NORD in case of doubt. If any
component of the entire drive unit is not provided with Ex labelling, the entire drive unit may not be
used in an explosion hazard area.

3.4.5 Brake
Motors with the additional labelling BRE (e.g. 80S/4 3D BRE 10) are equipped with a brake and must
be monitored with the integrated temperature sensor. Triggering of the temperature sensor of one of
the components (motor or brake) must result in the safe shut-down of the entire drive unit. The motor
and brake thermistors must be connected in series.
If the motor is operated with a frequency inverter, an external fan must be used for stator frequencies
less than 25 Hz. Operation with stator frequencies of 25 Hz is not permissible without an external fan.
The brake may be used as a holding brake with up to 4 activations per hour.
An optional manual release (with a lockable manual release lever) may only be used if no explosive
atmosphere is present.
NOTICE! The operating instructions for the brake must also be observed.
The DC supply for the brake is via a rectifier in the motor terminal box or via a direct DC supply. The
brake voltage which is stated on the type plate must be complied with.
The power supply cables must not be laid in the same cable as the temperature sensor lines. The
function of the brake must be checked before commissioning. No rubbing noises may occur, as
impermissibly high heating could occur.
