    Overview

    MGM Electric Motors was established in 1950 as a brake motors manufacturer.

    MGM is today a world leading manufacturer of this line of products.

    MGM brake motors are designed and assembled as an integral brake motor unit and

    not as a mere assembly of a motor with a brake.

    The perfect engineering and assembling combined with a strong and safe brake,make these motors very reliable.

    MGM is a worldwide organization, having distribution and technical support facilities

    in more than 45 countries.

    Protection Degree

    The enclosure rating of the motor has to be suitable to the enviroment conditions the motor operates in. According to the IEC34-

    5 (EN 60034-5) standard the designation of the protection degree is expressed by means of a symbol made of two letters (IP)followed by two digit numbers. The first digit indicates the protection degree provided by the motor enclosure in contact withparts in motion, electrically energized, or against the penetration of foreign bodies. The second digit indicates the protectiondegree of the motor enclosure against damages caused by the penetretion of liquids.

    First Digit Second Digit

    MGM brake motors come with standard IP54 enclosure rating. On request, motors can be provided with IP55or IP56 enclosure rating. For use in standard industrial enviroments IP54 is sufficient. For outdoorapplications or for applications that involve contact with water, protection degree IP55 or IP56 is advisable.Itsalways advisable to protect the motor as much as possible.During the installation stage secure the proper tightening of the cable gland and the insertion of the wirefrom the bottom upwards. On request, for outdoor vertical mounting with shaft down, a rain roof (BM series)

    or a special brake cover (BA series) are available.

    Motor Voltage and Frequency Supply

    MGM motors are provided with a standard voltage rating of 230/400V 10% 50 Hz (IEC 38, CENELEC HD 472,CEI 8-6)Europeanvoltage. On request they can be provided with different operating voltages.The operating voltages at 50 Hz and 60 Hz are clearly indicated on the motor nameplate. MGM motors aresuitable to work within a voltage variation of 10% on the nameplate voltage.The available rated voltages are shown in the table below under Nameplatevoltageat 50 Hz and 60 Hz,while the corresponding voltages on which the motor is able to run are shown underUsablevoltages.

    Operating at 60 Hz

    MGM motors with rated voltage of 230/400V 50Hz maintein the same rated and starting torque if operating at

    277/480V 60Hz while the RPM increase by about 20% (see torque vs. RPM comparing curves 1 and 2 below).The AC brake coil on BA series works equally well if operating either at 230/400V 50Hz or at 277/480V 60Hz.The DC brake coil with nameplate voltage of 110V, 230V or 400V on BM and BA series has to be supplied at110V, 230V or 400V single phase respectively both at 50Hz or 60Hz (i.e. a 230 V brake can be supplied single-phase at 230V 50Hz or at 230V 60Hz).MGM is able to provide motors and brake coils suitable for operating on 220/380V 60Hz power supply. It is notadvisable to run motors designed for 230/400V 50Hz and 277/480V 60Hz on 220/380V 60Hz voltage supply as

    the power remains the same, but the starting torque is reduced by 35% (see curves 1 and 3 below).MGM strongly recommends not to use a 277/480V 60Hz (230/400V 50Hz) AC brake coil on 220/380V 60Hzpower system as it results in a significant loss of performance.DC brakes with a rated voltage of 230V 50Hz can be used on 220V 60Hz and those with a rated voltage of400V 50Hz on 380V 60Hz power system.

    Service Duty Types

    The most common duty types are described in this slide. Please contact MGM for different types of duty.

    Continuous duty S1The motor operates with constant load for aperiod of time sufficient to achieve the thermalequilibrium.

    Limited length duty S2The motor operates with constant load for alimited period of time not sufficient to achieve athermal equilibrium. The remaining period of thecycle is a rest period, during which the motorcools down to the ambient temperature again.

    Periodic intermittent duty S3The motors follows a cycle including an operationperiod with constant load (ts) and a rest period(tr). The synthetic indication of the duty is givenby the intermittent percentage ratio related to aperiod of time, which usually is 60 min.(f.e. 15% - 60 min.).

    Intermittence Ratio = [ts /(ts + tr)] 100%

    Service Duty Types

    Periodic intermittent duty with start up S4

    The motors follows a sequence of identicaloperating cycles, each including a substantialstart-up stage D, a constant-load operating periodN and a rest period R.

    Intermittency ratio = (D+N) * 100(%)(D+N+R)

    The brief service indication must be accompaniedby the number of starts per hour.

    Increased Power

    A motor designed for S1 duty but running on S2 or S3 duty can provide a power output higher than the ratedone on S1 duty. However, the starting torque remains the same on all duties. The permissible approximateoutput power for single speed motors can be calculated as follows:

    Permissible Power =K Nominal power

    where K is a coefficient given by the following diagrams:

    Motor running on Inverter

    All MGM motors are designed to be suitable for inverter duty.

    The motor speed depends on the power supply frequency. Basically the inverter works converting the powerinput from the line with a fixed amplitude and frequency into a voltage supply with a variable amplitude andfrequency suitable to control the motor speed.Inverter cant generate an output voltage higher than the input voltage, while it can increase the frequencyabove the input rated value.

    Constant torque regulation range means a range where the inverter is able to keep the nominal ratio of voltageto frequency constant; in our diagram this range is up to 50 Hz. Constant power (or flow) regulation rangemeans a range where the inverter can increase frequency (and so the motor rotation speed), without voltageincrease to the motor (and consequently the torque); in our diagram this range exceeds 50 Hz.

    Operating diagram shows the percent values of the torque available both in continuous and overloadingrunning.

    When the motor is running within constant torque regulation range (frequency below 50 Hz), it is necessary to

    check that continuous slow running does not cause overheating; in that case servo-fan (see operatingdiagram) is needed.

    When the motor is running within constant power regulation range (frequency above 50 Hz), it is necessary tocheck if the torque required by the load does not exceed the torque indicated on the operating diagram,otherwise malfunction and eventual intervention of inverter overload protection devices could occur.

    Motor running on Inverter

    The brake should be supplied separately from the motor on brake motors controlled by inverters, to ensure the

    proper working of the brake coil. In this case the double terminal board box option must be requested.On brake motors with AC brake coil, it is also advisable to use a safety overload cutout (MGM type RC04) onthe power supply of the brake coil.The starting torque of a motor running on inverter is different from the one of a motor connected directly online.Be sure to select an inverter with technical specifications suitable for the work load of the machine it isintended to be used on.

    An inverter changes the electrical wave pattern to the motorfrom purely sinusoid to switching typical shape. Because ofundesirable harmoniccomponents added to the underlying power supply, a motorcontrolled by an inverter has higher losses, and an increasedvibration and noise level.The efficiency reduction varies according to the type of inverter

    used.In the figure the harmonic content on the power supply of amotor under inverter can be seen (blue indicates the underlyingpower supply, grey indicates theharmonics).

    The standard electrical specifications of the motors are referred to continuous duty (S1), nominal voltage,nominal frequency (50 to 60 Hz), an ambient temperature of max 40 C and installation elevation up to1000m. above sea level.If ambient temperature is higher than 40 C the permissible output power should be reduced by a percentageof the rated value (see the table below).

    If ambient temperature is higher than 60 C or lower than -30 C please contact the MGM technical office. Ifthe motor is going to work at an elevation higher than 1000 m. above sea level, the permissible output powershould be reduced by percentage of the rated value (see the table below).

    If a motor has to be used in an environment where the temperature is lower than -15 C, inhigh moisture or where abrupt temperature changes can occur, it is advisable to use anti-condensation heaters.This recommendation is particularly important where there are long pauses between workingcycles, which may cause abundant condensation on the motor windings. It could permeate thewindings and cause short circuits.

    This occurs mostly on larger motors, which contain more air volume inside, allowing morehumidity to condense.Additional protection against moisture may be provided by drain holes on the motor to allowwater drainage.

    Motors working in low temperature or high moisture enviroments

    Anti-Condensation heaters

    The application of Anti-condensation heaters helps in preventing water from building up inside the motor, as a

    consequence of the condensation effect due to the motor temperature fluctuations.

    Anti-condensation heaters application is particularly recommended for those applications with long intervalsbetween two consecutive work cycles.

    The condensation could permeate the winding causing a short circuit.

    This instance occurs mostly on larger motors, which contain more air volume inside the frame, allowing

    more humidity to condensate.

    Two anti-condensations heaters are applied on the heads of the motor winding.

    Anti-Condensation heaters must be used to keep the motor temperature as steady as possible and they mustbe switched off when the motor is powered to prevent the motor from overheating.

    MGM applies three types of heaters according to the motor size.

    The anti-condensation heater wires are connected in the terminal box.

    The writingSCALDon the nameplate shows that a motor is equipped with space heaters.

    Space heaters standard voltage supply is 220/240V.

    Any other voltage must be specifically requested and has to be agreed on by MGM.

    Protection devices

    The use of protection devices is advisable for motors used in special working conditions.Use of multiple protection device is recommended for BA series.

    The chart below reports the most effective protection devices for the most frequent occurring

    problems.

    On request MGM is able to supply motors equipped with thermistors (PTC) or bimetallic

    (PTO) thermal protectors.

    Protection devices

    Bimetallic Thermal Protectors (PTO): three bimetallic sensors in series with normally closed contacts,fitted on the winding heads. PTO controls a switch (not provided with the motor) that cuts off the powersupply when getting close to the dangerous motor temperature.The nominal voltage and current are respectively 250 V and 2,5 A A.C. while the intervention temperature is140C.The contacts reset to close position once the temperature goes below 35C. The PTO wiring connections arelocated on a terminal board inside the main terminal box. The writing TPon the nameplate shows that themotor is equipped with PTO.

    Thermistors(PTC): three thermistors in series (according to DIN standards 44081 and 44802), fitted on thewinding heads. The thermistors resistance changes with the temperature and when getting close to thenominal intervention temperature a sharp increase of resistance guarantees a precise intervention of thesafety devices. Thermistors only sense temperature so a cut-off Device (not provided with the motor) mustbe used to cut off the motor power supply.

    The maximum PTC operating voltage is 30 V DC while the intervention temperature is 130C on class Fmotors and 140C on class H motors. The PTC wiring connections are located on a terminal board inside themain terminal box. The writingTMon the nameplate shows that the motor is equipped with PTC.

    Over-voltage Protection

    Low speed motors: when starting motors with a high number of poles (i.e. 8, 12, 16),voltage peaks can be generated damaging the motor insulation materials and contacts. Inthese cases it is advisable to install safety over-voltage protection devices.On request MGM provides over-voltage protection devices such as RC04 for motors up to 4kW and RC10 for motors up to 10 kW. Please note that these devices should not be installed

    if the motor is controlled by an inverter.

    Brake coil: DC brake coil is supplied as standard with a rectifier fitted with a protectiondevice against over-voltage and with a filter against the radio frequency emissions. The ACbrake coil doesnt generally need this type of protection devices. In case of a very highstart/stop frequency or in case of critical line voltage situation it is recommended the use ofRC04 filter in order to limit the electrical interference on the brake.

    In the BA series (on the left side figure), the cooling fan located between the motor and the brake.

    The air inlet holes are positioned radially along the brake friction surface.

    In the BM series (on the right side figure), the cooling fan located at the non-drive end of the motor

    shaft and the air is sucked axially and thus the cooling effect doesntaffect the brake friction surface.

    The table of data shows that the AC brake reacts more quickly (i.e. has shorter response times) for thesame frame size. This gives rise to an important practical consideration:

    The AC brake is suited to applications characterised by heavy duty brakingcycles with a great number of inserction per hour.

    The AC brake doesntneed the rectifier (reliability advantage)

    heavy duty cycles) could need additional cooling servo-fan. BASV series motors with forced cooling areprovided with two additional cooling servo-fans fixed on the motor frame. This cooling system is an MGMpatent.SV series motors have the following features:

    The standard self cooling fan inside the motor is kept additionally to the two cooling servo-fan.The whole heating surface is increased as the fan fixing system is itself a heat dissipation element

    additionally to the exixting fins on the frame.Low noise level.No additional motor lenght compared to standard one.Manual brake release with manual rotation.Uniform winding cooling along the whole motor lenght.The brake friction surface is cooled on the motor side.

    Where the forced cooling is used to limit the operating temperature in heavy start/stop duty application, it

    should be noted that the efficiency of the forced cooling increases with the number of pole of the motor. Itshard to estimate the amount of hot air removed by the forced cooling fans but it can be roughly said that it isthe same as the air removed by the standard servo-fan of a 4 pole motor operating at 50 Hz.It is advisable to use thermal protectors in heavy operating conditions.The servo-fans can be supplied both at 50Hz or 60Hz. On request forced cooling fans can be provided withdifferent voltage supply.BMAV series motors with forced cooling are provided with single axial servo-fan replacing the standard motorself cooling fan.

    Customers can choose between a DC brake and an AC brake.

    The brake terminals are located inside the motors own terminal box in both cases.

    BA Brake and BM Brake connection

    In the BM version, the brake coil is powered by DCcurrent via an AC/DC conversion performed by arectifier diode bridge. The rectifier block is alsohoused inside the terminal box.

    The BA version has a 3-phase coil. This isconnected in parallel to the motor. With this typeof brake, braking torque can be adjusted bymeans of spring pre-load adjustment screws.

    Rectifiers

    Motors with a DC brake are provided with a rectifier located inside the terminal box.

    The AC/DC converter used to power a DC brake, from a functional point of view, is a block of electricalcomponents, into which alternating voltage is fed and out of which comes direct voltage (single or doublehalf-wave), as shown below:

    BA Series main features

    The BA series consists of three phase, asynchronous brake motors totally

    enclosed fan cooled (TEFC).

    The BA series range starts from 71 up to 315 frame size.

    As standard, the brake power supply is AC 3-phase.

    On request DC brake can be provided with a rectifier integrated in the terminal

    box. The rectifier is provided with an over-voltage and radio frequency emissionprotection device.

    The brake is designed and it is suitable for dynamic braking

    All BA series motors are provided with manual brake release.

    The BA series cooling fan is fitted between the motor and the braking assembly.

    The brake moving element and the brake coil have a laminated magnetic nucleus

    to reduce losses and to allow very fast braking.

    BA series: air gap adjustment

    The air gap (60), that is the distance between thetwo magnetic cores, the brake coil (25) and brakemoving element (24), must stay within the valuesexpressed in the table below. The correct air gapadjustment allows the motor to optimally work,without vibrations and noise.It is advisable to check periodically the air gap

    because it increases, as a consequences of thebrake disc wear.In order to set the air gap to indicated values,you have to loosen the nuts (21)(22) so to movethe brake coil (25) towards the brake movingelement (24).

    BA series: brake torque adjustment

    The brake torque is proportional to the springs (18)compression, which can be adjusted tightening or loosening thelocknuts (20). The compression of the springs must be as evenas possible. Once the brake is properly supplied, if the brake coil(25) isntable to attract the brake moving element (24) with aquick stroke and to keep it attracted without any vibrations,check the air gap adjustment and, if this inconvenience still

    persists, loosen the locknuts (20) by two threads and try againuntil the proper functioning is obtained.Once this operation is completed, check the brake torque tomake sure it is set to the desired value. Never set the braketorque to a higher value than the one indicated on the motornameplate.
