Using the electric machine  in potentially explosive environment.
Allowing dirt or liquid to enter into the electric machine or connection box.
Using cables that can't withstand the maximum currents of the electric machine  .
Used technology
The electric machine  is a  Syncronous Reluctance assisted Permanent Magnet (SRPM) machine. This
technology has several benets compared to standard permanent magnet (PM) technology and
traditional induction machine (IM) technology. The SRPM technology combines the benets of PM
and Syncronous Reluctance technology, having increased torque capability over wide speed range
and ability to produce torque to higher speeds. The electric machine efficiency at lower speeds is
also good.
The supply current to the machine stator windings create rotating magnetic eld, which in turn
rotates the rotor containing permanent magnets. In the syncronous permanent magnet machine,
the rotation of the rotor (shaft) is syncronized with the frequency of the power supply current. The
reluctance technology maximizes the pull-out torque of the machine.
The permanent magnets of  the rotor are of salient-pole design, having embedded permanent
magnets in the rotor structure. This structure makes the  electric machine mechanically more
stable and capable of higher speed operations. See Figure below illustrating the magnet topology
of the electric machine. The gure shows the principle only, and is not an exact illustration of the
structure.

This chapter describes design principles that must be taken into account when designing the
system using the  electric machine.
System design
Cooling and temperature measurement
Do not operate the electric machine without correctly  dimensioned and operating cooling system.
Mount the electric machine in correct position, see Chapter  Allowed mounting position .
When you connect  the cooling system make sure  that the cooling liquid runs freely in and out from the electric machine
with the coolant ow equal or higher than rated.
The coolant temperature at the inlet of the electric machine must be lower or equal to the rated temperature.
See more detailed information about coolant connection bore specications, required coolant
liquid ow and other specications in the product data sheet. Rated values can be found from the
machine rating plate.
The electric machine  has  at least one PT100 temperature sensor in the windings. The amount of
the sensors depend on the options chosen. The temperature signal(s) can be read out from the
measurement connector of the machine.
You can connect one temperature signal to the temperature surveillance pin in the inverter (EC-
C1200) and make sure that the inverter has the machine temperature protection feature activated.
The maximum allowed winding temperature of the machine is 150 ºC.
The PT100 temperature sensor characteristics are: resistance 100 Ω in 0 ºC temperature, and the
resistance increases 0.385 Ω per each 1 ºC increase of temperature.
Inverter
The electric machine  is  intended to be powered and controlled with an inverter capable of
supplying three-phase alternating current and that is capable of controlling the electric  machine.
The electric machine  is not suitable for direct online use.
If the machine is driven with a inverter from  supplier other than Danfoss Editron, the electric
machine performance may differ from rated values. The optimum performance of the electric
machine is obtained with Danfoss Editron  inverters. These inverters are:
Compact and light.
Liquid cooled.
Tolerant to high mechanical vibration (10 G) and shock (50 G).
Efficient, efficiency > 98 %.
Reliable, no moving components.
Do not exceed the maximum rotation speed of the machine.
