    The purpose of this document is to describe general guidelines for the installation, maintenance • Actions shown in this manual are only to be performed by trained personnel authorized by ABB or The actual appearance of the motor may vary from the illustrations in this manual, depending on and disposal of the AMXE132 motor.

  • Page 6: Intended Application

    MOTORS FOR HEAVY ELECTRICAL VEHICLES 1.2. Intended application The motor is primarily intended to be used for heavy electrical vehicle applications, as a traction motor, generator or auxiliary motor. It also fits as propulsion or auxiliary unit in Marine segment. Due to the nature of their electrical and mechanical operating conditions, improper installation or operation, as well as insufficient maintenance, could introduce hazards which could lead to severe bodily injuries or damages to property.

  • Page 7: Manual And Related Documents

    The motor must be in good working order without damages caused by improper handling or lack of maintenance according to instructions in this document. . If technical modifications are considered, they shall always be approved by ABB and be carried out by qualified personnel.

  • Page 8: Product Description

    MOTORS FOR HEAVY ELECTRICAL VEHICLES 2. Product description The motor is an AC six (6) pole motor of synchronous type. The motor features a tailored design, optimized for high energy efficiency and a competitive performance/weight ratio. The motor is actively cooled by a separate liquid cooling system which is connected to its integrated cooling pipe via inlet and outlet connectors placed on the frame.

    MOTORS FOR HEAVY ELECTRICAL VEHICLES 3. Transportation and Storage 3.1. Transportation 3.1.1. Delivery to customer The traction motor is transported fastened to a pallet. Leave the traction motor on the pallet until it is time to place it in its working place i.e., chassis. During short term storage, place the traction motor so that it is out of the way of any other goods handling and on a flat, vibration-free surface.

    10 MΩ (measured with 500 V DC and corrected to 25°C). If the reference resistance value is not attained, the stator winding is too damp and must be oven dried. Please contact your local ABB sales office for technical support. NOTE: To avoid risk of electric shock, the motor frame must be grounded, and the windings should be discharged against the frame immediately after each measurement.

    The motor needs an inverter to operate. The inverter must be able to supply 3 phase AC current and be capable of controlling the motor. The motor has been tested and optimized together with the ABB HES880 inverter. An inverter with a different control strategy, switching frequency and pulse pattern might have an impact on the motor performance.

  • Page 20: Connection Of Power Supply

    MOTORS FOR HEAVY ELECTRICAL VEHICLES 4.5.1. Connection of power supply Make sure that the traction motor is disconnected from power supply prior to connection or disconnecting the power supply connectors. Installing power voltage at U-V-W will rotate traction motor clockwise, facing traction motor shaft from D-end. Make sure that all cable connections are installed in appropriate way and suitable for high frequency currents.
