Baldor Reliance Electric Motor EBM3734TY

Select the operating condition of the motor

Is the motor running at 1800 RPM or less?

Verify lubricant compatibility and cleanliness

Select the operating temperature range

Select the recommended lubricant based on temperature

Ensure sleeve bearing (oil lube) motors are drained of oil prior to shipment

Refill oil reservoirs to the indicated level with the specified lubricant

Section 3 — Maintenance general principles

Check the oil level on oil lubricated units

Ensure the oil level is at the midpoint of the sight gauge when the motor is at rest

Ensure the oil level is at the midpoint of the sight gauge when the motor is in operation

Relubrication interval for roller bearings

Section 3 — Lubrication Procedure

WARNING — Stay clear of rotating parts and electrical circuits if lubrication is done with motor running

CAUTION — Do not over-lubricate motor

Relubricate with the shaft stationary and a warm motor

Locate the grease inlet, clean the area and replace the pipe plug with a grease fitting if necessary

Remove relief plug and clean if necessary

Storage — Preparation for Storage

Measure and record the resistance of the winding insulation (dielectric withstand) every 30 days of storage

Place new desiccant inside the vapor bag and re-seal by taping it closed

If a zipper-closing type bag is used, zip the bag closed instead of taping it

Ensure new desiccant is placed inside bag after each monthly inspection

Place the shell over the motor and secure with lag bolts

Storage — Minimum insulation resistance

Enter the minimum resistance of motor winding insulation in Meg ohms

Calculate and record the minimum resistance using the formula Rm = kV + 1
