1.3. Definition of ratings
1.3.1. Definitions of power ratings for air-cooled machines
The power ratings (torques) listed in the table applies to continuous operation (S1) at the rated speed and a
maximum ambient temperature of 40°C, for machines installed below 1,000 m a.m.s.l.
If motors are to be operated at an ambient temperature of more than 40°C, or altitudes above 1,000 m a.m.s.l.,
the required list power rating P
L
(list torque M
r
)
is calculated from the product of factors k
1
and k
2
(specified in
the table below) and the required power rating P (torque M).
Design changes may be necessary in the case of ambient temperatures above 40°C and installation of motors
in an enclosure: For this reason, it is imperative that the manufacturer is contacted.
If, in the case of an increasing site altitude above 1.000 m, the ambient temperature decreases by approx.
10°C per 1.000 m increase, no power correction is necessary (note the minimum operating temperature).
1.3.2. Definitions of power ratings for water-cooled machines
The power ratings (torques) that appear in the list apply to permanent operation S1 at nominal speed, provided
the cooling circuit requirements for water-cooled motors are met!
The reduction factors included in the table below must be considered when operating DSC motors with higher
coolant inlet temperatures:
Coolant inlet temperature
Percentage of list performance (torque)
1.4. Water cooling
1.4.1. Coolant consistency
The coolant must satisfy the following specifications:
Maximum permitted system pressure
Temperature of coolant
- for motor
Permitted particle size
of solid foreign objects, particles (e.g. sand)
Clean water that is free of dirt and suspended matter must be used as a coolant.
