5. Setup and Installation
5.1 Safety Precautions
- Ensure power is disconnected before any installation or maintenance.
- Installation should be performed by qualified personnel only.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Verify that the supply voltage and frequency match the motor's specifications.
- Ensure proper grounding of the motor.
5.2 Mounting
The motor is designed for horizontal foot mounting (B3). Use the pre-drilled holes on the fixed base for secure installation. Ensure the mounting surface is stable, level, and capable of supporting the motor's weight (15kg) and operational forces.
Refer to the dimensions in Section 4.1 for precise mounting hole spacing.
5.3 Electrical Connections
The motor requires a 3-phase power supply. The default connection for nominal output ≤4hp (3kW) is a Star (Y) connection for 380V. For 220V operation, you may need to change to a Delta (Δ) connection. Consult a qualified electrician for wiring.
Wiring must comply with local electrical codes and regulations.

Figure 4: Wiring Diagrams
This image provides standard wiring diagrams for three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors, including Star (Y), Delta (Δ), and Star-Delta (Y-Δ) connections, as well as configurations for two-speed motors.
- Star (Y) Connection: Typically used for higher voltage (e.g., 380V). Connect terminals W2, U2, V2 together, and connect L1, L2, L3 to U1, V1, W1 respectively.
- Delta (Δ) Connection: Typically used for lower voltage (e.g., 220V). Connect U1-W2, V1-U2, W1-V2, then connect L1, L2, L3 to these respective junctions.
- Grounding: Always connect the motor's ground terminal to a reliable earth ground.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Pre-Operation Checks
- Confirm all electrical connections are secure and correct.

- Cleanliness: Ensure the motor's cooling fins and ventilation openings are free from dust, dirt, and debris to maintain efficient heat dissipation.
- Noise and Vibration: Listen for any unusual noises or feel for excessive vibrations during operation.
- Temperature: Monitor the motor's operating temperature. Excessive heat can indicate a problem.
7.2 Bearing Lubrication
This motor typically uses sealed bearings that are lubricated for life and do not require routine re-lubrication. If the motor exhibits unusual bearing noise, consult a qualified technician for inspection and potential bearing replacement.
7.3 Electrical Connections
Periodically check all electrical connections in the junction box for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion. Tighten any loose connections.
