DC Motors

Important: Motors with an overspeed switch must have the overspeed

switch terminals properly connected in the control circuit
to remove armature power when the switch reaches the set
speed.

Grounding

The user is responsible for assuring that the grounding method is in
accordance with the National Electric Code and the applicable local
codes. The ground connection should be a solid and permanent
metallic connection between the ground point, the motor terminal
housing and the motor frame. A ground lead is provided inside the
terminal box.

Mounting

Motors must be mounted on a rigid, solid base or foundation. Poor
base construction may cause resonances in the motor/base assembly
which can result in bearing failure and other motor damage. All hold
down bolts must be the correct grade for the type of mounting and
must be torqued to their recommended value.

Recommended Torque

Belted Drive

Motor slide bases or rails, when used, must be securely anchored to
the foundation with the proper bolts.

Important: The motor shaft and load shaft must be parallel and the

sheaves aligned. Refer to

“Motor Application Data” on

page 10

.

Coupled Drive

Important: Flexible couplings must be used between the motor shaft

and the load shaft. Motor shaft and load shaft must be
aligned to values recommended for the specific coupling
before coupling is connected.

Motors will operate successfully mounted on the floor, wall or
ceiling, and with the shaft at any angle from horizontal to vertical.
Special mountings, duty or thrust demands may, however, require a
different bearing system. Hand hole covers can be interchanged as
necessary.
