GENERAL INSPECTION

2.1 Check if the motor characteristics indicated on the nameplate are in accordance with those
specified in the order.
In case of non-compliance please contact our nearest Sales Office or the Factory.
2.2 These motors have been designed to work in atmospheres that present a risk of explosion.
It is therefore indispensable to carry out a very careful inspection of the material received,
as well as the external parts of the motor (frame, endshields, terminal box and terminal box lid).
2.3 Any fault found has to be marked and analysed in order to ensure that the motors may
function without any risk in this atmosphere. If necessary, the damaged parts or the parts
that could present a risk in the future should be replaced.

TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

3.1 Should the motors need to be transported to another destination, care must be taken to
prevent the motors being exposed to harmful effects.
All motors equipped with roller bearings and the motors frame size 250 and above equipped
with angular contact ball bearings are fitted with a device to lock the rotor during transport
generally fitted on drive end. Some motors may have two locking devices one on the drive
end and other at the non-drive end. This device should only be removed when the motor is
ready for mounting.
3.2 The motors should be stored in a clean, dry and vibration free place.
3.3 Machined surfaces - shaft end, flange, etc - are protected with anti rust coating (ANTICO-
RIT BW 366 from FUCHS or equivalent).
If motors are to be stored for a long period of time, these surfaces should be checked and
"touched up" if necessary.
3.4 Flameproof joints are protected with anti rust coating (MOBILPOLYREX or other equivalent
recommended by WEGeuro). These surfaces shall be periodically checked and a "touched
up" or a new protection coat shall be applied if necessary, mainly on terminal box joints if
they are already opened.
3.5 For long storage periods is recommended that the rotor shafts should be turned periodically
to prevent bearings deterioration.
3.6 If motors are fitted with anti-condensation heaters, these should be connected during storage.
