If considerable damage has been in
incurred and the situation is urgent,
con tact the nearest Reliance
Electric District Office for assistance.
Please keep a writ ten record of all
such communications.
Handling
In all cases, care should be taken to
assure lifting in the direction
intended in the design of the lifting
means. If multiple eyebolts are
provided, lift using diagonally
opposite eyebolts. Likewise,
precautions should be taken to
prevent hazardous overloads due to
deceleration, acceleration or shock
forces.
Angle of lift with rope or chain must
be greater than 45
R
from horizontal.
For unusual conditions, such as
side-wall and ceiling mounting of
horizontal motors and installation of
vertical motors shipped in a
horizontal position, special
precautions must be taken and it is
recommended that an experienced
rigger be employed.

The application of motors and other
electrical equipment in hazardous
locations is restricted by the National
Electric Code. Users must observe
these regulations and consult with lo
cal code inspection and enforcement
agencies to insure compliance.
Location
Locate the machine where the
ambient temperature is not over
40
R
C or 104
R
F and where clean air
has free access to ventilating intake
and outlet openings. Except for
machines with a suitable protective
enclosure, the location should be
clean and dry.
NOTE: The cooling system on
standard RPM AC totally enclosed,
blower cooled motors requires clean
air to be forced through ducts which
are integral to the frame. It is
important that these air passages be
kept clean and that sufficient
clearance be provided on the blower
motor air inlets and outlets for
unrestricted flow of air.
For Drip-Proof Force Ventilated
Enclosures sufficient clearance must
be provided on all inlet and outlet
openings to provide for unrestricted
flow of air. Separately ventilated
motors with exhaust to ambient
(pipe-in only) must have at least 6
inches of clearance between the
opening and adjacent walls or floor.
NOTE: Motors located in a damp,
moist environment must have space
heaters to protect against
condensation when motor is not
operating.
Drain Plugs
If motor is totall
y
enclosed it is
recommended that condensation
drain plu
g
s be removed. These
are located in the lower portion of
the end-shields or bottom of
frame on each end for L180 frame.
Totall
y
enclosed “XT” motors are
equipped with automatic drains
which should be left in place as
received.
Power Supply
The RPM AC motor is an adjustable
speed motor designed for operation
with adjustable frequency
controllers.
Verify that the motor nameplate data
corresponds to the controller output
rating and follow the Controller
Instruction Manual for motor
installation and connection.
Conduit Box
The standard conduit box location
for totally enclosed motors is top
mounted for F1-F2 versatility without
motor disassembly. For drip-proof
force ventilated, F1 is standard.
Conduit box can be rotated in 90
degree increments for lead outlet at
front, back or sides. On L180 motors
the conduit box is integral to the top
of the frame with F1 and F2 outlets.
Mounting
Motors must be mounted on a rigid,
solid base or foundation. Poor base
construction may cause resonances
in the motor/base assembly which
can result in bearing failure and
other mo tor damage. All hold down
bolts must be the correct grade for
the type of mounting and must be
torqued to their recommended
value.
Belted Drive
Motor slide bases or rails, when
used, must be securely anchored to
the foundation with the proper bolts.
NOTE: The motor shaft and the load
shaft must be parallel and the
sheaves aligned. Refer to Motor
Application Data Section of sheave
and belt data.

Procedure:
1. Connect for low or high voltage
as shown.
2. Check that the direction of air
flow is in agreement with the
“direction of air flow” arrows
mounted on the motor. If
directional flow is incorrect
interchange power leads to T1
and T2 or U1 and V1.
Grounding
The user is responsible for insuring
that the grounding method is in
accordance with the National
Electric Code and the applicable
local codes. The ground connection
should be a solid and permanent
metallic connection between the
ground point, the motor terminal
housing and the motor frame. A
ground lead or bolt is provided in
side the terminal box.
Due to the need to carry higher
frequency ground currents (from
switched voltage waveforms) the
ground connection/path must be low
impedance, not only low resistance.
Such ground currents exist during
normal operation on switched
(inverter) power.
Drive
RPM AC motors 56-L320 are sup
plied with a shaft suitable for a belt
or coupled drive.
Belt loads should be checked
against maximum allowable radial
loads under “Shaft Loads” section.
Contact Reliance Electric sales
office to deter mine L440 frame belt
load requirements.
Frames L360S and L400S are
suitable for coupled duty only; larger
shafts are supplied for belted duty.
Proper alignment is a key step for
long life of bearings, shafts and
belts, and minimum downtime.
Misalignment can cause excessive
vibration and damaging forces on
shaft and bearings. For direct
coupled drives, flexible couplings
facilitate alignment. For belt drives,
the sheave must be placed as close
as possible to the motor bracket.
Shipping Blocks
Motors supplied with roller bearings
at the drive end are shipped with
wooden blocking to prevent axial
movement of the shaft during
shipment. Remove the blocking and
bolts securing it and discard. Make
sure motor shafts turn freely. If motor
is to be reshipped, blocking of
bearing is required.
Encoder Connection

1. Dynapar H20 - 10 pin M/S con-
nector
2. Lakeshore - Epic connector or
pigtail cable
The following chart is a universal
wiring guide for the latching Epic
connector or a pigtail cable. Wires
that are not used should be left
floating and should never be con-
nected to power or common. For
optimum EMI noiseimmunity con-
nect the encoder shield (pin 10 or
the braid wire) to the cable shield.
The encoder shield is internally
isolated from the encoder frame.
The cable shield should still be
connectedtogroundatthereceiv-
ing end. This encoder has a line
driver output. A pull-up resistor is
not required.
PIGTAIL CABLE
Connect the color coded wires to
match the individual signal
requirements.

Motor Application Data
Maximum Safe Speed
The speeds given in Table I are the
maximum mechanically safe
operating speeds for frames with
standard construction. These
speeds must not be exceeded under
any condition. Motor control must
hold the maximum speed under any
load condition including no-load
within the maximum safe speed.
Drive systems whose de sign
characteristics inherently prevent the
AC motor from exceeding the Mo tor
Maximum Safe Operating Speed
must prevent the motor from
exceeding the Maximum Safe
Speed if a single component failure
should occur.
Table I - Maximum Safe Speed
With special construction maximum
safe speed may differ from the
above values. In all cases, the
maximum safe speed is indicated on
the motor name plate.
NOTE: Normal operating speeds
must be limited to those listed in
order to meet nameplate rating and
assure validity of warranty.
Minimum V-Belt Sheave
Diameters
Application of Pulleys, Sheaves,
Sprockets and Gears on Motor
Shafts
To avoid excessive bearing loads
and shaft stresses, belts should not
be tightened more than necessary to
transmit the rated torque. The pre-
tensioning of the V-belt drive should
be based on the total tightening
force required to transmit the
horsepower divided by the number
of belts. This procedure avoids the
excessive load caused by tightening
individual belts to a prescribed level
recommended by belt
manufacturers.
Mounting
In general, the closer pulleys,
sheaves, sprockets or gears are
mounted to the bearing on the motor
shaft, the less will be the load on the
bearing. This will give greater
assurance of trouble-free service.
The center point of the belt, or
system of V-belts, must not be
beyond the end of the motor shaft.
The inner edge of the sheave or
pulley rim should not be closer to the
bearing than the shoulder on the
shaft but should be as close to this
point as possible.
The outer edge of a chain sprocket
or gear must not extend beyond the
end of the standard motor shaft.
Shaft Extension and
Method of Drive
RPM AC frames 56-L320 are
supplied with a shaft and bearing
system suitable for either coupled or
belted drives. Belt loads should be
checked against maximum allowable
radial loads under “Shaft Loads”
section. Frames L360-L440 are
supplied with larger shafts and roller
bearings when belted drives are
specified.
Shaft Loads - Axial and
Radial
RPM AC motors are suitable for
limited shaft loads as shown in
Tables III and IV. Recommended
maximum thrust loads depend on
the mounting position, either
horizontal or vertical. For
recommendations for loads in
excess of those shown, refer to the
local Reliance Electric office. For
higher speeds and special shaft
extensions please refer to the local
Reliance Electric sales office.

Caution: The use of these radial load capacities requires the accurate calculation of the radial load for the application.
Radial loads for gears, sprockets, and flywheel are usually accurately determined but the radial loads due to V-belt
drives are subject to miscalculations because they do not include all of the pre-tension load (belt tightening). The
calculations of the radial load for a V-belt drive must include the pre-tension for transmitting the horsepower,
pretension for centrifugal force on the belts, pre-tension for high start torques, rapid acceleration or deceleration, pre-
tension for drives with short act-of-contact between the V-belt and sheave, and low coefficient of friction between belt
and sheave caused by moisture, oil or dust. Failure to observe these precautions could result in damage to or
destruction of the equipment.

Operation
Motor Start-Up
In addition to observing the above
pre cautions, the following items
must be checked before starting.
• Stop and remove power from the
motor per the Controller
Instruction Manual directions.
• Verify the DC bus voltage is zero
per the Controller Instruction
Manual.
1. The interior of the motor should
be clean and dry.
2. Connections should be tight.
3. The driven machine should be un
loaded if possible.
NOTE: Machines designed for
cooling by a separate source of
forced ventilation must not be
operated without the air supply. Be
sure blower is running in proper
direction.
While operating the motor, observe
the performance. It should run
smoothly with little noise. The
bearings should not overheat and
should reach a leveling off
temperature. Any undue noise,
overheating, or erratic performance
should be investigated and
necessary corrective action taken
immediately to prevent serious dam
age. Before attempting any repairs,
please contact the local Reliance
Electric Sales/Service office.
All RPM AC motors are lubricated be
fore shipment and will operate for a
long period before regreasing is
required. The period will vary
depending on environmental and
service conditions. Refer to
Maintenance Section.
Balance
Motors are dynamically balanced to
commercial limits unless ordered
differently. Balance is done with a full
length 1/2height shaft key. A full
shaft key is shipped with motor.
Sheave or coupling should be
balanced with a 1/2height shaft key.

Lubrication - Frames
L180 - L440
RPM AC machines are designed
with the exclusive Reliance Electric
Positive Lubrication System PLS 5
which routes new grease directly
into the bearing. The relubrication
periods shown in Table VII are
offered as a guide for varying
service conditions, speeds, bearing
types and operating hours.
NOTE: Certain special motors may
have a lubrication instruction plate
permanently attached. These
specific lubricating instruction must
be followed.
Lubrication Procedure
1. Relubrication with the shaft sta-
tionary and a warm motor is rec-
ommended. Iflubrication must be
done with motor running, stay
clear of rotating parts and electri-
cal circuits.
2. Locate the grease inlet at the top
of the bearing hub, clean the
area and replace the 1/8-inch
pipe plug with a grease fitting if
the motor is not equipped with
grease fitting.
3. Remove grease drain plug
located opposite the grease inlet.
4. Using a manual grease gun,
pump in the recommended
g
rease in the amount shown in
Table V. This amount of grease
will provide an ample supply of
lubricant between lubrication
periods as determinedfrom Table
VII for the service condition listed
in Table VI.
Use Chevron SRI-2 grease or
equivalent unless motor name
plate specifies special grease.
Use only clean, fresh grease from
cleancontainersandhandlesoas
to keep it clean.
In general, mixing of greases is
notrecommended.Ifanincompat-
ible grease is used, the lube sys-
tem must be repacked completely
with the new grease.
5. Wipe away any excess grease at
the grease drain or relief and re
place drain plugs.
Repacking Bearings or
Greasing New Bearings
When existing bearings have been
completely cleaned of old grease or
when bearings are replaced, use this
procedure for packing the bearing.
1. Apply one bead of grease all
around inboard side of bearing
between bearing and inner cap

making sure that grease adheres
to balls or rollers.
2. Apply one bead of grease all
around outboard side of bearing,
making sure grease adheres to
balls or rollers.
3. Completely fill grease inlet and
out let passage holes with
grease.
4. Fill outboard bearing cavity 60%
to 90% full of grease.
5. If possible, rotate shaft of
assembled machine at least
three revolutions by hand to
distribute grease within bearings
before starting motor.
Bearings
RPM AC Bearing Housing Designs
provide protection to windings and
interior of machine by minimum
grease leakage. They also provide
good protection against external
contamination.
Various types of anti-friction
bearings are used in the wide range
of RPM AC frames as needed to
meet specific load, speed and
service requirements.
Most commonly used bearings are:
1. Single row, open ball bearings for
coupled and belted duty for
frames L180 thru L320.
2. Single row, open ball bearings for
coupled duty forframes L360 and
L400.
3. Cylindrical roller bearings atdrive
end for belted duty on frames
UL360 and UL400.
Frequent bearing checks are
recommended. If temperatures
become excessive, investigate
immediately for the cause. Total
bearing temperatures should not
exceed 90
R
C (194
R
F). Causes for
high bearing temperature are:
1. Contaminated grease.
2. Insufficient grease or excessive
amount.
3. Incorrect grease.
4. Excessive load or thrust due to
misalignment or motor overload.
5. Loose bearings.
6. Bearing failure.
7. Excessive ambient temperature.
Replacement bearings should be
ordered from Reliance Electric in
order to obtain the same carefully
selected bearing as the original.
RPM AC bearings should never be
exposed by disassembly of the
motor unless absolutely necessary
for inspection or re placement of the
bearing or maintenance in other
parts of the machine. Protect good
bearings from dirt and contamination
at all times. Most bearing failures are
caused by dirt.
The open ball bearings for the
RPMAC motors frames L180 thru
L320 are the same regardless of
whether application is coupled or
belted. Belted duty for frames UL360
and UL440 re quires the use of roller
bearings. Coupled duty uses ball
bearings.
Lubrication - Frames 56,
140T and W180T
The ball bearings are deep grooved,
double shielded bearings with
sufficient lubricant packed into the
bearings by the manufacturer for
"life Lubrication". The initial lubricant
is supplemented by a supply packed
into larger reservoirs in the end
shield at time of assembly. No
grease fittings are provided as the
initial lubrication is adequate for up
to 10 years of operation under
normal conditions.

12
Disassembly And Reassembly Instructions
Axial Float
RPM AC motors have a wave spring
washer between the drive end
bracket and bearing. The opposite
drive end bearing is positioned
axially by a float restricting inner
cap. Axial float (including bearing
internal clearance) should be within
the limits listed on the chart below.
The 56, 140T, W180T and L440
frame wavy spring is located on the
opposite drive end.
Anti-Friction Bearing
Assemblies
The bearings are positioned and
secured in a machined cavity in the
end brackets. Open type ball
bearings are used for direct coupled
and belt drive applications for frames
L180 thru L320 (employ ball
bearings at both ends) and are
protected by inner caps at both
ends.
Frames UL360, UL400 and UL440
employ a cylindrical roller bearing on
the drive end for belt drives, and a
ball bearing for coupled service.
56, 140T and W180T have double
shielded bearings.
Bearing Replacement
Remove bearing by means of
bearing puller. Clean bearing
housing and bearing seat prior to
assembly of bearing. Place new
bearing in a bake oven for 1/2hour
@ 250
R
F. Place bearing onto shaft
and push home to bearing shoulder
and hold it in place for a minimum of
30 seconds.
After bearing has cooled down for
about 1 minute add 1/2cu. in. of
fresh grease into back of bearing.
Once mo tor becomes assembled
grease per instructions found herein.
Bracket Re-Assembly
To obtain proper planity between the
integral mounting feet on the front
and back end brackets of L210-
L440, a smooth level surface should
be used to align the brackets when
they are assembled to the frame.
Check for proper shaft alignment
after reinstalling the motor.
Stub Shaft Removal Procedure - L180-L440
Drive-in Stub Shaft
1. Turn off and lockout power to the
motor.
2. Remove in-line blower motor and
cover assembly by removing the
Hex head cap screws on cover
(if enclosure is TEAO-Blower
cooled).
3. After removal of blower
assembly, obtain the stub shaft
puller back plate (available from
Reliance Renewal Parts), and
assemble over the stub shaft
against the end of the motor
shaft.
4. Obtain the stub shaft puller plate
(available from Reliance
Renewal Parts) and assemble
over the stub shaft, and up
against thepullerbackplate. Note
7/16 set screws must be backed
out enough to clear the stub shaft
O.D., and 1/2" jack screws
should be backed out to allow
puller plate to fit up flush against
the backplate.
5. Screw the 7/16" set screws in on
each side of the puller plate until
they contact the stub shaft. Keep
the stub shaft reasonably
centered between the jack
screws. Tighten screws securely.
6. Using a 3/8" allen wrench, turn
the jack screws, in equal
amounts, in a clockwise manner
to remove the stub shaft. If the
set screws slip, re tighten and
repeat process.
7. Replace blower motor and cover
assembly (if TEAO - blower
cooled) withthe correct extended
blower cover, using the hex head
cap screws previously removed.
Screw-in Stub Shaft
1. Turn off and lockout power to the
motor.
2. Remove in-line blower motor and
cover assembly by removing the
Hex head cap screws on cover
(if enclosure is TEAO-Blower
cooled).
3. After removal of blower
assembly, motor shaft will need
to be locked from turning. The
use of a spanner wrench on
motor drive shaft or al ternate
means can be used. Place an
open-end wrench on stub shaft
flats and turn counter clockwise

Replacement Bearings / Spare Parts
Your maintenance program will not
be complete without including spare
bearings. It must be remembered
that the bearing is a wearable
component and therefore must
eventually be re placed. To insure
that you are able to maintain original
operation, we recommend the
purchase of spares directl
y
from
Reliance Electric.
All bearings used in Reliance motors
are subject to exact specifications
and tests necessary to satisfy
performance requirements. In this
manner, it is possible to duplicate
your present bearing. Markings on
the bearing do not indicate complete
specifications.
