3.2 Components added to the motor by the user, such as cable-glands, threaded plugs,
encoder, etc. must meet the type of protection, the EPL in accordance with the
standards indicated on the product certificate.
3.3 The symbol “X” added to the certificate number, informed on the motor nameplate,
denotes that motor requires special conditions for installation, use and/or
maintenance, as described in the certificate. Failure to follow these requirements may
affect the product and installation safety.
3.4 For Group IIC motors care must be taken to the total thickness of the painting because
it shall be less or equal than 200µm. If the painting plan selected exceeds 200µm, an
additional nameplate will be added to the motor informing about the risk of electrostatic

For Group IIB, I and IIIC motors there is no such limitation because the total thickness
of the painting can be less or equal than 2 mm.
4. TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
4.1 The motors mustn’t be exposed to destructive actions during transportation and
storage.
4.2 The motor must be checked when received for any damage that may have occurred
during the transportation. All damages must be reported in writing to the transportation
company, to the insurance company and to WEG. Failure to comply with such
procedures will void the product warranty.
4.3 All motors equipped with roller bearings and equipped with angular contact ball
bearings are fitted with a device to lock the rotor during transportation, 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 shall only be removed when the motor is ready
for mounting.
4.4 Remove the shaft locking device (if any) and rotate the shaft by hand to ensure that it
rotates freely. If the motor is going to be put in to storage the shaft locking device must
be put on its place again.
4.5 If the motor is not installed immediately, it must be stored in a dry and clean
environment, with relative humidity not exceeding 60%, with an ambient temperature
