    The standard NEMA shaft extension is designed for belted loads. Dimensions are provided on the standard dimension sheets. A sliding base is available as an accessory to facilitate belt adjustment. Bearing Life Bearing life for belted drives is determined by calculating the radial load at the end of the shaft.

    Pinion Drives While Kinamatic plied under suitable conditions. In addition to a radial load, some gears produce thrust load on the bearing. Complete details of the proposed gearing should be referred to GE Industrial Systems in all cases. Thrust Loads Due to the mounting position or type of drive arrangement, a thrust load may be applied to the motor shaft.

  • Page 27: Testing Methods

    Experience and judgement can be gained by careful observation and comparing results of visual in- spections with insulation resistance measurement. GE Service Shops have personnel who can inspect equipment and point out potential trouble areas. Their services can help build experience and judge- ment for future visual inspections.
  • Page 28: Cleaning Of Windings

    It is important to realize that when blowing out a machine, dirt may settle in a previously cleaned area and it may be necessary to repeat the cleaning process to ensure that a thorough job is done.

    Stoddard solvent has good solvency, but is flammable and moderately toxic. Before using any solvent, consult the Material Safety Data Sheet. Steam cleaning is not recommended because, as with liquid solvents, conducting contaminants may be carried deep into inaccessible areas resulting in shorts and grounds. GEH-5304A...
  • Page 30: Drying Of Windings

    Repairs should be made only by qualified personnel using the materials and processes for which the motor was designed. To protect the warranty during the warranty period, all repairs must be made in a GE Service Shop or approved repair facility. Many repairs can be easily performed with only assembly operations, if GE replacement parts are available.
  • Page 31: Renewal Parts

    RENEWAL PARTS Using genuine GE renewal parts assures continued high performance and the full benefits of the long operating life designed into your GE motor. Downtime can be minimized by having a protective stock of parts available for replacement. (Refer to Table 14.) The permanently attached nameplate on your GE motor displays the model and serial number, providing all the information needed for ordering.
