Technical definitions for AC motors

■
Overview
Regulations, standards, and specifications
The motors comply with the appropriate standards and regula-
tions, see table below.
As a result of the fact that in many countries the national regula-
tions have been harmonized with the international IEC 60034-1
recommendation, there are no longer any differences with
respect to coolant temperatures, temperature classes, and
temperature rise limits
The motors listed below are UL-approved by Underwriters
Laboratories Inc. and also comply with Canadian cUR
standards: SIMOTICS S-1FK7/S-1FT7/SIMOTICS T-1FW3/
S-1FW6/SIMOTICS M-1PH8 (without brake)/SIMOTICS L-1FN3.
Degrees of protection for AC motors
A suitable degree of protection must be selected depending
on the operating and environmental conditions to protect the
machine against:
•
Ingress of water, dust, and solid foreign objects,
•
Contact with rotating parts inside a motor, and
•
Contact with live parts.
Degrees of protection of electric motors are specified by a code.
This comprises 2 letters, 2 digits and, if required, an additional
letter.

and the ingress of solid foreign objects and water

protection against ingress of solid foreign objects

Recommended degrees of protection for AC motors
When cooling lubricants are used, protection against water
独自一人是不够的。IP等级只能considered as
a guideline in this case. The motors may have to be protected by
suitable covers. Attention must be paid to providing suitable
sealing of the motor shaft for the selected degree of protection
for the motor (for 1FT7: degree of protection IP67).
The table can serve as a decision aid for selecting the proper
degree of protection for motors. With mounting position IM V3/
IM V19/IM V6/IM V35 with shaft extension facing upwards, a per-
manent covering of liquid on the flange must be avoided. With a
mounting position with the shaft extension facing upwards, liquid
remaining on the motor flange can be avoided by selecting a
1FT7 motor with degree of protection IP67 and a recessed
flange.

DIN VDE 0530 Part 5 or EN 60034 Part 5 specifies that there are only
5 degrees of protection for the first digit code and 8 degrees of protection
for the second digit code in relation to rotating electrical machinery. How-
ever, IP6 is included in DIN 40050, which generally applies to electrical
equipment.
