OPERATION
The motors are designed to be used in the
following conditions, unless otherwise stated
on the rating plate.
• Normal ambient temperature limits are 0 °C to
+40°C. Derating of the electrical performance
of the motor is mandatory in the range of
40–50 °C.
• The maximum altitude is 1000 m above
sea level.
The motor can only be used for applications
for which it is intended to be used. The rated
nominal values are shown on the motor
rating plates.
In addition, all the requirements of this
manual and any other related instructions
and standards must be followed.
HDP series motors use a forced-air cooling
system which uses radial fans.
The coolant is air, which is moved by
a component mounted on the motor, the
power for which is obtained in such a way that
it is independent of the rotational speed of
the machine.
If these limits are exceeded, the motor data
and construction data must be checked.
Please contact ABB for further information.
MOTORS EQUIPPED WITH A BRAKE
SHOULD NOT BE RUN BEFORE THE
BRAKE IS RELEASED BY THE CORRECT
VOLTAGE SUPPLY. NOT FOLLOWING
THIS PROCEDURE WILL CRITICALLY
WARNING
DAMAGE THE BRAKE.
IGNORING ANY OF THESE
INSTRUCTIONS OR NEGLECTING THE

WARNING
FROM BEING USED.
Make sure that the construction allows sufficient
air flow into and out of the motor at the
designated inlet and outlet points. Ensure that
there is free space of at least 180 mm behind
the motor air inlet.
DO NOT USE ANY COOLANT OTHER
THAN AIR.
