2.1 Overview
This chapter informs everyone involved about the residual risks and hazards that will still be present
even when the product is used properly in accordance with its designated purpose. It also informs the
reader about possible measures that should be implemented in order to avoid such risks.
The towing of an electric multiple unit (EMU) over long distances at high speeds (>80 km/h)
represents an exceptional operating status and is not allowed to be part of daily planned operation. In
the event of a fault on the EMU or in the drive the day's service may still be completed, but the EMU
has then to be taken to a workshop. The speed of the EMU should not exceed 80 km/h while it is
being moved with unpowered drives to another location. At higher speeds, the negative effects of
roller sliding of the unloaded roller bearings may result in irreversible bearing damage.
The technical data for the drive have been specified taking into account the regulations and
standards agreed and specified in the order. The drive must only be operated within the limits of
these data.

3 Product Description
3.1 Overview
This chapter contains all of the essential data for the drive. Each user should become familiar with
this chapter to be able to use the product as specified. At first the drive and its technical data is
described, then the traction motor und the gearbox.
3.2 Drive
3.2.1 Description
The drive is designed as a nose-suspended drive which consists of out of a traction motor and a
gearbox. The wheelset shaft is not part of the drive and is handled in the maintenance manual of the
bogie. An overview of the drive is shown in Figure 1.
Motor and suspension tube form a stiff structure, the suspension tube is bolted at one end to the
gearbox housing and the connection to the stator casting is located along the whole length of the
motor.
The drive unit is supported on the wheel set shaft by two nose suspension bearings (axle hung) and
is suspended, at the traction motor end, by a spring unit on the bogie. The spring unit is directly
connected to the stator housing. The traction and braking forces are transmitted by the wheel set
bearings to the frame of the traction mechanism.
The gearbox is of the type single-reduction and is identical for all the motor bogies of the MRVC train.
Each motor bogie contains a motor-gearbox arrangement per wheel set.
The horizontally split gear housing is bolted to the A-side motor bearing shield and suspension tube.
It is assembled on the wheel set shaft. The traction motor is bolted to the nose suspension tube and
is supported in the bogie frame by a rubber sandwich unit. The gearbox transmits the power delivered
by the traction motor to the wheel set shaft in traction mode and from the wheel set shaft to the motor
in electric braking mode.
The main gear is shrink fitted on the cylindrical seat of the wheel set shaft and transmits the torque
provided by the gearbox to the wheel set shaft.

3.2.3 Drawings
Figure 5: Drive complete
One of the main objectives of the design of the traction motor has been to minimize the number of
components, which for the end-user reduces time for maintenance and increases reliability. All main
components, rotor, end-shield and bearing arrangement, are equal and interchangeable between
motors.
3.3.1.1 Stator
Stator
The stator housing is a cast structure that accomodates the laminated stator core. The lamination
stack is shrinked into the stator housing.
Lamination Stack
The lamination stack consists of insulated high permeability electric steel sheets and is clamped on
both sides by end plates.
Stator Winding
The stator winding insulation conforms to the EN 60349-2 standard Class 200. By using this
insulation process, the stator is vacuum impregnated (VPI process). The stator winding is made up of
form coils. The coils are wound from insulated rectangular profile copper wire with an additional MICA
tape based insulation. The coils are connected at the A-side of the stator. All connections are brazed.
Both end-shields are cast structures, the shapes are designed to minimize the dimensions of the
motor and maximize stiffness.
The connection box of the motor is located on the upper side of the stator housing. The connection of
the motor cables to the stator winding is carried out via a terminal board. The connection box is also
provided with cable glands for the traction motor power cables.
3.3.1.4 Rotor
The rotor is a short circuit squirrel cage design. The lamination is held together by two press rings
and shrink fitted to the rotor shaft. The short circuit cage is designed as a brazed copper cage, which
is built by the rotor bars and two short circuit rings – both made of copper. The rotor bar itself is
especially designed to reduce the losses, vibrations and torque pulsation, due to the harmonics in the
current. A shrink ring relieves the cage from the centrifugal load.
This kind of rotor design is proven and has been used very successful in the past as it is specially
designed to withstand the most severe conditions in railway applications. The design is reliable and
offers good manufacturability at the same time.
3.3.1.5 Bearings
The motor has two rolling bearings, one on each side and the locating bearing is positioned on the B-
side. The bearings are grease lubricated. Both end shields are provided with a lubricating nipple to
provide the subsequent re-greasing of the bearings. The sealing of the bearings from the inner side
of the motor and from the gear wheel guard is provided by contact free labyrinths.
3.3.1.6 Monitoring
Speed monitoring
The speed sensor system is mounted on the B-side of the motor. The cable has a maximum length of
three meter; a contact plug will be provided.
Temperature monitoring
The Pt100 are mounted in the stator in order to measure continuously the stator temperature in
service. The cable has a maximum length of three meter; a contact plug will be provided.
3.3.1.7 Cooling
The motor is open and self ventilated cooled by air from its own fan. The fan is mounted on the
traction motor shaft inside of the motor housing at the drive end. Therefore, the cooling is proportional
to the rotational speed.
The air inlet on the non-drive end of the motor is connected via a flexible bellow to the air inlet in the
passenger cabin. The fan sucks the cooling air through the motor. Inside the motor the cooling air is
directed close to the parts where the losses are generated e.g. stator coil overhang, stator lamination,
rotor lamination, rotor winding and bearings. Finally, the air is expelled at the drive-end of the motor.
3.3.2 Drawings
Figure 7: Traction motor MRVC II – Sheet 1
3.4 Gearbox
3.4.1 Description
The gearbox is a single reduction spur gear, with main gear and pinion shaft (motor shaft).
Inside the gearbox, the power is transmitted from the motor shaft to the wheel set shaft by helical
gears.
The main gears and pinion shafts are made of high grade case hardened steel. Case hardening of
the gear wheels renders the mechanical strength properties necessary for the loading.
The gear wheel is connected to the wheel set shaft via a cylindrical shrink-fit, the mounting is done by
heating up the main gear and for dismounting the main gear is equipped with an oil injection hole for
connection of a hydraulic pump.
The gearbox housing comprises two castings of grey cast iron, the horizontal split plane of the
housing goes through the wheel set shaft and the pinion shaft. The housing of the gearbox is
designed for high stiffness and low noise radiation.
The oil level in the spur gear can be checked through an oil sight glass, minimum and maximum
markings are incorporated in the housing. The sight glass is protected by a wall in the housing
casting around the glass.
The plug for complete draining is situated on the lowest point of the oil sump. The lower part of gear
case is equipped additional with a possibility of oil suction.
The oil filling hole is closed with a magnetic plug and provides protection against overfilling.
3.4.1.3 Bearings
The gearbox is supported on the wheel set shaft by two tapered roller bearings. The bearings have
cages of pressed steel sheet. All bearings are mounted with the outer ring into the suspension tube,
with the inner ring on to the wheel set shaft.
The bearings will be exchanged during the main overhaul of the gearbox.
3.4.1.4 Lubrication
The gearing is lubricated by the gear oil in the housing. The gearbox is designed for lubrication by
splashing: the main gear dips into the oil sump in the housing. Synthetic oil is suitable for the
application.
3.4.1.5 Cooling
The losses are conducted and dissipated by the walls of the gearbox.
3.4.1.6 Sealing
To meet the requirements of water tightness of the drive being under water in the depot the sealing
elements of the wheel set shaft at the outside are realized by radial shaft seals. To prevent these
sealing elements from dirt and to grease the seals to increase lifetime an extra barrier grease
chamber is mounted, the volume of the barrier grease chamber is filled with barrier grease.
All other seals on the traction motor side and the wheel set side are contact-free of labyrinth type.
This sealing system is designed to minimize the loss of lubricant to the environment and to minimize
the pollution of the bearings and of the lubricant from the environment.
Liquid sealing substances (no silicon) are used for the static seals between the gear case parts and
covers, other parts are sealed by O-rings.
3.4.2 Drawings

4.1 Overview
This chapter informs about the transport and storage of the drive such as necessary infrastructures
and devices or measures for longer storage times.
4.2 Transportation:
For transport during assembly and repair a suitable crane, preferably with precision controls, is
required in order to lift and move the drive. In addition, suitable devices which can support the
gearbox in a vertical and horizontal position are also required.
NOTE
Tensioning ropes or chains used to secure the assembly in transit must not be
tensioned over the motor or gearbox.
ATTENTION
To prevent damage, only soft ropes and tapes may be used. Do not put steel cables or
chains around the drive components or around the add-on parts.
Use a crane that corresponds to the weight of the complete unit.
The drives should be covered with a plastic foil or a canvas cover for transportation.
WARNING
Make sure that no one is walking under a suspended load!
Serious injury or even death can result!
ATTENTION
Do not use these lifting eyes as the sole means of lifting if the wheel-set is still
attached.
4.3 Storage:
4.3.1 General information
If fully assembled drives are not taken into operation directly after assembly and depending on the
duration in storage special measures may be necessary for interim or final storage.
Blank surfaces should be treated with preserving agent Cortec VCI 369. We recommend separate
storage of individual parts which are well corrosion-protected (e.g. roller bearings in their original
packaging).
Store the drive components in rooms under the following storage conditions:
Underground vibration-free
As a general rule, the air inlet and air outlet openings on the drives (gearbox housing and/or motor)
must be covered. The covers should be attached in such a way that air is allowed to circulate through
the drive. This is particularly important when covering with plastic foil or canvas covers.
ATTENTION
Do not place any load on the drive!
Internal corrosion-proofing:
No special measures required, as the gear oil distributed during the test run offers
adequate protection against corrosion.
up to 6 weeks
External corrosion-proofing:
Coat blank surfaces with an anti-corrosion grease, e.g. Korrex grease MoS2 or
Cortex VCI-369.
Internal corrosion-proofing:
Perform a test run of the drive with gear oil Renolin MR40; afterwards leave the oil in
the gearbox.
External corrosion-proofing:
over 6 weeks
Blank surfaces should be coated with anti corrosion grease Cortec VCI 369. Repair
any flaws in the paint finish. Cover the drive with canvas cover or plastic foil. When
using sheeting, make sure that there is enough ventilation to prevent the formation of
condensation. The assembly must only be sealed in plastic foil, if suitable drying
agents are added which can bind any moisture.
Turn the drive 10 rotations by hand to distribute grease and anti-corrosion protection
every 6 months
oil and to move the bearings into a new position.
every 12 In addition apply anti-corrosion agent to all surfaces which are accessible from the
months outside and which have been corrosion-proofed.
Additionally re-lubricate all roller bearings which are lubricated with grease before
rotating the drive.
every 5 years
Correct type of grease: see chapter 8.1.6
Quantity of grease: approx. 5 times the quantity required in operation
4.3.3 Re-commissioning
Drain the anti-corrosion oil prior to re-commissioning. The gearbox does not need to be completely
flushed. Small remaining quantities of Renolin MR40 are permissible.
Fill up with gear oil according to the maintenance instructions in chapter 7.4.2: Checking the oil level
and chapter 7.4.3: Changing the oil.

• Inspection of the gearbox housing, the oil pan and the seals for oil leakage.
• Inspection of the gearbox for loose of fastening elements (bolts and associated fastenings).
Use an appropriate torque wrench to tighten bolts. Follow the tightening torques specified
in the installation instructions or drawings.
• Inspect the cannon tube and the bearing head components for external damage.
The lubricant to be used for the gearbox is a gear oil (synthetic oil, polyalphaolefin) with EP additives
(high-pressure additives) with a viscosity of 150 mm²/s to 220 mm²/s at 40 °C and the API
classification GL 5.
On delivery, the gearbox is filled with Optigear RMO from Castrol. We recommend using again
Optigear RMO from Castrol when changing the oil.
The operation with Servosyngear 320 from Indian oil as an alternative can be agreed later after
finishing a one year evaluation period (at least 150.000 km in service) for two trains.
It is not allowed to use other qualities of gear oil or to mix lubricants from different manufacturers.
Before using lubricating oils from other manufacturers, we recommend that you contact the gearbox
manufacturer, Bombardier Transportation Austria / Engineering (fax: 0043 1/25110-493). (tel.: 0043
1/25110-0).
The oil level should be checked at regular intervals of approx. 20,000 km, or at least after 45 days, at
all gearboxes. The oil level checks should be documented in a report showing the distance covered,
the oil level at inspection and the amount added.
An oil sight glass with protection guard is provided on the lower gearcase for checking the oil level
(Figure 9/P24). The minimum oil level is indicated by the lower mark in the middle of the protection
guard. The maximum quantity of oil has been added when the level reaches the upper mark of the
protection guard. The difference between min-marking and max-marking represents about 0,5 l oil.
Sufficient time is needed to allow as much oil as possible to flow back into the oil pan before checking
the oil level (at least 30 minutes). Oil has to be added, when the oil level is closer to the lower
marking in the oil sight glass than to the upper marking.
Procedure:
P31
P32
1. Clean the area around the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/P31, quadrant H9).
2. Remove the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/P31, quadrant H9).
3. Fill up slowly with oil nearly up to the upper mark ("MAX" level) on the protection guard
(Figure 9/P24, quadrant J6).
4. Wait 5 minutes and check the oil level. If the oil level is lower than MAX-level add carefully
and slowly some more oil until the oil level reaches the MAX-level. For information about
the correct type of oil to use, please refer to chapter 7.4.2.1.
ATTENTION
Do not over-fill the gearbox (oil level higher than MAX-level), as otherwise the function
of the contactless labyrinth seals will be impaired.
The lower mark in the middle of the oil gauge indicates the minimum oil level. If the oil
level is below min level, the bearings and the gearing will be damaged.
5. Seal the gearbox with the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/P31) and a new sealing ring
(Figure 9/P32). Tightening torque MA = 130 Nm (see Table in Figure 9 “M5”).
NOTE
It is recommended that the oil change is done not too long after the end of operation.
Then the oil is warm (less than operating temperature) and it runs easier out of the
gear box. The particles are mixed in the oil and will be flushed out better.
ATTENTION
Do not start draining off the oil immediately after end of operation. The oil could be too
hot and can cause severe burns at the operating people!
It is recommended to wait some minutes. If the gear box can be simply touched with
unprotected hands the oil has the right temperature to be changed.

1. Clean the area around the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/P31) [A]
2. Open the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/P31) [A] along with the sealing ring (Figure 9/P32)
[A] and check the magnetic stick. Fine abrasion without solid particles is normal. If any
unusually large pieces are found then the gearbox will require further investigation.
3. Sufficient time is needed to allow as much oil as possible to drain off.
4. Clean the magnetic drain plug
5. Seal the drain bore with the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/ P31) [A] and a new sealing
ring (Figure 9 P32) [A]. MA = 130 Nm (tightening torque; see table in Figure 9 “M5”)
6. Remove the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/P31) [B] and sealing ring (Figure 9/P32) [B]
before filling. Check the magnetic drain plug for particles on the magnetic stick. Clean the
magnetic drain plug.
7. Fill up slowly with oil nearly up to the upper mark ("MAX" level) on the oil sight glass
(Fehler! Verweisquelle konnte nicht gefunden werden. and Figure 9/P24).This should
require about 3.4 litres of oil. An exact amount of oil cannot be given; because of casting
tolerances each gearbox has different volumes.
8. Wait 5 minutes and check the oil level. If the oil level is lower than MAX-level add carefully
and slowly some more oil until the oil level reaches the MAX-level. For information about
the correct type of oil to use, please refer to chapter 7.4.2.1.
ATTENTION
Do not over-fill the gearbox (oil level higher than MAX-level), as otherwise the function
of the contactless labyrinth seals will be impaired.
The lower mark in the middle of the protection guard indicates the minimum oil level. If
the oil level is below min level, the bearings and the gearing will be damaged.
The thread hole for the magnetic drain plug at position [B] works as a overfill protection. If
there is too much oil inside the gear box, the excess amount of oil can leak through this
opening.
9. Seal the gearbox with the magnetic drain plug (Figure 9/P31 and 7.4.2.2) and a new
sealing ring (Figure 9/P32 and 7.4.2.2) at position [B]. MA = 130 Nm (tightening torque;
see table in Figure 9“M5”)
7.4.4 Re-greasing
The labyrinth ring LS-WS (Figure 10/P8) and th labyrinth ring (Figure 10/P15) and the is equipped
with a re-greasing system on the DE and nDE end respectively. A tapered lubricating nipple (Figure
10/P23) is provided for connecting a grease gun.
After approx. 37,500 km or after 3 months (whatever comes first) - this can coincide with the next
scheduled locomotive service – the barrier grease chambers has to be refilled.
The following type of grease has to be used for re-greasing: Klüberplex BEM 34-132 (from Klüber).
Procedure:
P10 P15 P9

P23
1. Clean the cone lubricators (Figure 10/P23) and their surroundings from both labyrinth ring
LS-WS (Figure 10/P8) and labyrinth ring (Figure 10/P15) using thinner and clean cloth.
2. Insert the cleaned grease gun.
3. Apply approx. 35 ... 45 g per nipple. Press at slow speed; too much volume in a short time
may cause damages on the radial shaft sealing.
4. If there comes some grease out of the sealing gap, there would be enough grease in the
area of that grease nipple.
The traction motor is equipped with a re-greasing system on the DE and nDE end. A tapered
lubricating nipple (Fehler! Verweisquelle konnte nicht gefunden werden./P62) is provided for
connecting a grease gun. Re-grease after approx. 150,000 km.
The lubrication intervals can be defined with the aid of the results of a grease analysis performed on
a grease sample taken when the first re-greasing interval is reached. The vehicles should have
covered enough distance before doing this.
The following type of grease has to be used for re-greasing: Klüber Isoflex Topas L152. The
maximum service life of the grease is 8 years.
ATTENTION
Never mix different types of grease - i.e. grease of different origin or different quality -
apart from the two types specified above.
The grease-lubricated Nose suspension bearings are equipped with re-greasing devices. There is
one lubricating nipple (Figure 10/P29) on the axle suspension tube (Figure 10/P1) for taper roller
bearing (Figure 10/P5) and one lubricating nipple (Figure 9/P29) on the thrust plate (Figure 10/P13)
for taper roller bearing (Figure 10/P6).
Re-grease after approx. 150,000 km or 1 Year (whatever comes first)- this should coincide with the
next scheduled locomotive service.
The lubrication intervals can be defined with the aid of the results of a grease analysis performed on

maximum service life of the grease is 8 years.
ATTENTION
Never mix different types of grease - i.e. grease of different origin or different quality -
apart from the two types specified above.
The channel for old grease in the lower part of the axle suspension tube at both DE and nDE can take
about ten times the re-greasing quantity of 45 g of grease (max.). This means that, both from initial
delivery until the first time the drive is disassembled and for all subsequent intervals, the channel for the
old grease has a sufficiently large volume.
NOTE
Due to the length of the maintenance intervals, the chamber for old grease in the axle
suspension tube (Figure 10/P1) should be emptied no later than the fifth re-greasing.
To do this, take off the grease chamber cover (Figure 10/P19) and remove the old
grease from the chamber.
Replacement after approx. 750,000 km or 5 Year (whatever comes first)- this should coincide with the
next scheduled locomotive service.

NOTE
Carefully move away the labyrinth, so that the seat of the labyrinth is not damaged.
Continue turning the jack screws evenly opposite.
NOTE
There are different ways to disassemble the rotor. At this point we offer a description of
the method which is preferred at the manufacturing plant; this is the horizontal
disassembly method with the aid of a so-called C hook (see Fehler! Verweisquelle
konnte nicht gefunden werden.).
Using the C-hook the first time, it has to be ensured by setting the suspension of the C-
hook, that the rotor is lifted horizontally.
Alternatively, horizontal disassembly with the aid of shaft extensions is also possible.
Here, the end plate at the non drive end remains attached to the rotor assembly, and
the complete assembly is moved out of the stator in the direction of the non -drive end.
C-Hook
ATTENTION
A crane is required in order to disassemble the rotor. The rotor weighs around 380 kg.
Due to the narrow clearances inside the motor and the necessity to feed out the rotor
from the bearing at the non-drive end, we strongly recommend the use of lifting
equipment with precision controls.
ATTENTION
Carefully align the rotor to prevent damages (roller bearings, stator winding, …). The
moment in which the inner ring of the roller bearing slides out from the outer ring of the
roller cage of the bearing is particularly critical. Carefully align the rotor with the guide
tube to prevent the core stack from making contact on its way out and the assembly
generally from skewing.
8. Lift out the rotor the last bit from the stator, set it down on the core stack and secure with
suitable wedges.
ATTENTION
Never place any load on the short-circuit rings or cage bars when placing the unit
down.
Protect the mounting face on the coupling flange against soiling and damage.

7.5.4 Disassembly of axle suspension tube, wheel-set shaft and gearbox components
The below procedure is valid after the wheels are removed from the wheel-set shaft.
6. Before disassembly place the drive on transport / assembly stand (3EJH901672) and
secure against slippage.
7. Clean the surroundings around the head socket head cap screw (Figure 10/P45) and
remove them to dismantle the sealing plate LS-WS (Figure 10/P9) and remove it from the
gear box.
8. Remove the barrier grease out of the barrier grease chamber inside the labyrinth ring
(Figure 10/P8).
9. Remove the locking screws (Figure 10/ P42) from the labyrinth ring LS-WS (Figure 10/
P8). Remove the labyrinth ring LS-WS (Figure 10/ P8).
10. Clean the surroundings around the head socket head cap screw (Figure 9/ P45) and
remove them to dismantle the sealing plate (Figure 10/ P10) and remove it from the
wheel-set shaft.
11. Remove the barrier grease out of the barrier grease chamber inside the labyrinth ring
(Figure 10/P15).
12. Clean the surroundings around hex socket head cap screw (Figure 9/ 48) and remove
them to dismantle labyrinth ring (Figure 10/ P15) from the thrust plate (Figure 10/ P13).
13. Clean the surroundings around locking screw (Figure 9/ 44) and remove them to dismantle
thrust plate (Figure 10/ P13) from the axle suspension tube (Figure 10/ P1) and wheel-set
shaft. Also remove the spacer disk (Figure 10/ P12) from the surface of axle suspension
tube.
A special device is needed to dismount the thrust rings from the wheel set shaft without damages.
We recommend that to contact the gearbox manufacturer, Bombardier Transportation Austria /
Engineering (fax: 0043 1/25110-493). (tel.: 0043 1/25110-0) for ordering that special device.
Another method to dismount the thrust ring is heating it. The procedure starts with hanging the wheel
set shaft vertically below a rotatable fixture (3EJH901763) with the part to be dismounted in the lower
position. Then the thrust ring has to be heated evenly over the circumference; only the thrust ring!
Turning the wheel set shaft in the fixture makes it easier to warm up the thrust ring more evenly.
When the thrust ring is warm enough it falls from the wheel set shaft to the ground. After this
treatment the trust ring must not be used anymore!
The slinger ring must be heated to dismount it from the wheel set shaft. The procedure starts with
hanging the wheel set shaft vertically below a rotatable fixture (3EJH901763) with the part to be
dismounted in the lower position. Then the thrust ring has to be heated evenly over the
circumference; only the slinger ring! Turning the wheel set shaft in the fixture makes it easier to warm
up the slinger ring more evenly.
When the slinger ring is warm enough it falls from the wheel set shaft to the ground. After this
treatment the slinger ring must not be used anymore!
7.5.4.4 Disassembly of suspension tube with the inner bearing ring nDE, slinger ring, and the
thrust ring nDE
After disassembly of the labyrinth rings it is possible to disassemble the suspension tube with the
inner bearing ring nDE, slinger ring, and the thrust ring nDE from the wheel set shaft at once
The process is as follows:
1. Put the complete wheel set shaft in the transport/assembly stand, 3EJH901672. The wheel
set shaft lies horizontally in the fixture.
2. Put the dismantling fixture, 3EJH901684, between main gear and the flange of the suspension
tube.
3. Support the suspension tube so it can not fall on the wheel set shaft.
4. Connect the hydraulic pressure unit of the dismantling fixture to the pump.
5. Put pressure to the hydraulic system at a maximum of 50 MPa.
6. Heating of both the slinger ring and the thrust ring at once.
7. When the slinger ring and the thrust ring get warm enough the complete group (suspension
tube, bearing inner ring, slinger ring, thrust ring) will be dismounted from the wheel set shaft.
8. Reduce completely the pressure of the hydraulic system.
After this procedure the bearings, the slinger ring, and the thrust ring must not be used any more.
1. On one side mount the three extraction hooks on the back side of the bearing outer ring.
2. Screw the central nut so that the support feet can press against the flange of the suspension
tube.
3. When screwing the nut further on, the bearing outer ring will be put out of the suspension
tube.
The same procedure is done for the other bearing outer ring on the other side of the suspension tube.
The thrust ring can be removed as described in 7.5.4.2. For this operation the wheel set shaft can
also remain in horizontal position in the transport/assembly stand, 3EJH901672.
In every case, the thrust ring must not be used any more.
A disassembly of the main gear from the wheel set shaft is not foreseen. If the main gear or the wheel
set shaft becomes unusable the main gear together with the wheel set shaft has to be replaced.
NOTE
Dust can be blown out with compressed air at a maximum pressure of 5bar.
High-pressure steam cleaning systems (e.g. with equipment from Kärcher and suitable
cleaning agents) or ice cleaning systems can be used.
CAUTION
Parts must be dry before cleaning with volatile cleaning agents.
ATTENTION
No alkaline substances may be used in any of the cleaning processes. Acidic cleaning
agents (pH value < 7) are permitted. When using any kind of chemical cleaning agent,
always read the safety instructions provided by the manufacturer and distributor and
follow any recommended safety or protection measures.
The manufacturer's instructions must be followed when cleaning roller bearings.
To prevent damage to the insulation, only high-pressure jet nozzles suitable for
delicate surfaces may be used in the vicinity of windings. Never use high-power jet
cleaners or spot jet cleaners.

• Air ducts on the rear of the stator
• Air ducts in the rotor
After finishing cleaning, all main parts of the motor should be dried in an oven for 12 hours at 100°C.
ATTENTION
An electrical test according to chapter 7.8.4 must be performed. If the voltage test is
failed or the measured insulation is below the required insulation resistance, the
insulation should be checked again for damage and bridging. If necessary, dry the
motor again. Please contact the manufacturer if it fails the electrical tests again.
After reassembling the motor, we recommend carrying out the tests described in chapter 5.3.3
After dismantling the traction motor has to be visually checked for external damage due to
mechanical impacts:
Depending on the degree of pollution, the components must be cleaned in accordance with chapter
7.6.1.
• Check of the shaft, seat surfaces, laminated core and the rotor cage to mechanical
damage.
• Inspection of brazed connections of the cage – pay special attention to discolorations
which indicates a traction motor thermal overload (short circuit).
A visual inspection of the gearbox should be performed as part of the vehicle inspection and during
servicing. Special attention should be paid to the following points:
The gear teeth should be visually inspected every time a bearing is replaced. The following points
should be checked:
• Visual inspection for damage such as scoring, seizures, pitting on the tooth flanks
(assessment in accordance with DIN 3979).
• Severe wear
• If there are any signs of damage or unusually severe wear, then the gear wheels will need
to be investigated more closely in order to establish whether or not they are suitable for
continued use.

done with a torque wrench (no impact drivers).
It is prohibited to use impact drivers or heat components directly with a naked flame (e.g. with a
welding torch) during installation or assembly work.
A suitable crane, preferably with precision controls, is needed to lift and move the drive and its
components.
Prior to assembly, carefully clean all fitting surfaces and bearing seat surfaces as well as
disassembled parts. Remove residues of surface sealing agents and Loctite bolt securing
mechanisms.
WARNING
Damages are expected especially in peripheral parts such as cables or corrosion protection through
the action of foreign bodies during operation.
For re-assembly, the specific tightening torques, the application of surface sealants, screw securing
using Loctite and other instructions in drawing 3EJD000001-0501 (Traction Motor ready for
installation) and part list 3EJD000001-0500 are to be observed.
All locking elements for screwed connections must be replaced after they have been used once. In
terms of their effectiveness for providing a secure connection, ribbed Socket head cap screws can be
reused without restriction provided the ribbing of the head contact face is not damaged.
If defined torque is specified for the bolts in the text of this instruction or in drawings, then a torque
wrench is to be used. Do not use an impact driver.
The heating of thermoformed parts can be done either in an oven or with devices that operate
inductively. An inductive heating is recommended, since it ensures a uniform heating throughout and
prevents a too high amount of heating. Observe the safety instructions of the manufacturer regarding
handling of inductive heaters. The heated or cooled parts have to assemble within 20 sec.
WARNING
During inductive heating, there is an increased danger of accidents! Since the
induction heating device generates a magnetic field, persons with heart pacemakers
should not work with this device or stay in the immediate vicinity. Also other sensitive
electronics, e.g. wrist watches, can be affected by this magnetic field. Observe the
safety instructions in the manufacturer’s manual.
CAUTION
Parts that must be heated or cooled for mounting or dismantling are only to be grasped
with heat-insulating gloves.
In the assembly instructions of this chapter, the use of assembly paste is required repeatedly. This
paste is to be used as follows:
If spare parts are required, then only use genuine parts in accordance with the motor manufacturer's
parts list.
ATTENTION
The tightening torques for screws/bolts and tightening sequences are detailed in the
table in the drawing 3EJD000001-0501. All tightening to be done with a torque wrench
(no impact drivers).
The fitting surfaces and contact surfaces of the end plate and bearing covers are to be lightly coated
with Cortec prior to assembly unless other materials are specified in the text.

ATTENTION
The O-Ring (Figure 10/ P27) must not slip out of the groove or be clamped /
squashed.
If a new, conformity-tested traction motor has been attached to the flange of a gearbox which has not
been disassembled, then the idling test on a test bench can be omitted.
NOTE
On the nose suspended drive this can only be done with the wheel-set shaft installed.
Suitable testing equipment is required for the test run of the drive. This equipment
must be capable of safely supporting the drive at its mounting points.
-
Motor speed from 0 Hz to approx. 50 Hz or 1500 rpm
Warm up for approx. 10 minutes
Duration for each direction of rotation
Approx. 20 minutes at a constant 50 Hz

During the test run the bearings should be monitored by listening to them, performing vibration
measurements and observing the temperature development.
The measuring points and the limits are described in test specification 3EJD000001-1692.
NOTE
Temperature checks can be performed with standard commercially available
temperature measuring equipment with a magnetic fixture. The vibration values can be
measured with commercially available measuring equipment.
The test run has been successfully completed if the temperatures approach a permissible limit
(steady-state condition), the noise generated during operation resembles a uniform hum and the
defined vibration limits are not exceeded. If the temperature curve has no obvious maximum, the
permissible vibration values are clearly exceeded or there is noticeable noise from the bearings then
the affected bearing should be removed and inspected.
values or, in the case of a device which displays directly in °C, the displayed temperature values
should be checked.
NOTE
The plugs of the measuring resistors are accessible at the adapter connector.
NOTE
For the insulation resistance measurement and the high-voltage test, the connecting
cables of the measuring resistors should be short-circuited to each other. The high-
voltage test should be carried out between the short-circuited connecting pins of the
plug connector and the motor or drive housing ground.
NOTE
The connection is made at the connector assembly.
7.8.7 Special tests when using the drives for the first time
When the drives are used for the first time in a vehicle, a certain number of drives should be
monitored particularly closely - this should be arranged with the drive manufacturer. We recommend
the following tests:
• Analysis of the oil after covering a distance of 100,000, 200,000km and 300,000 km.
• Inspection of the teeth flanks at the first or second oil change, looking at the following in
particular:
1. Tooth wear
2. Visual inspection for damage such as scoring, seizures, pitting on the tooth
flanks (assessment in accordance with DIN 3979)
• Early dismantling of the drive (after around 1,000,000 km, corresponding to the first
installation of new wheel discs) for the purpose of:
1. Assessing the condition of the roller bearings
2. Taking grease samples and analysing the lubricating capability
These special measures will enable the maintenance intervals to be closely matched to the actual
operating conditions.
NOTE
High-pressure steam cleaning systems (e.g. with equipment from Kärcher and suitable
cleaning agents) or ice cleaning systems can be used. Cover the air inlet and outlet
openings and the Labyrinth Sealing’s.
ATTENTION
No alkaline substances may be used in any of the cleaning processes. Acidic cleaning
agents (pH value < 7) are permitted. When using any kind of chemical cleaning agent,
always read the safety instructions provided by the manufacturer and distributor and
follow any recommended safety or protection measures. Always check that the
cleaning agents are compatible with the paintwork.
Localised exterior cleaning should be performed before changing the oil and performing the oil
analysis, as well as before re-lubricating the bearings.
Never allow water and/or cleaning agents to penetrate into the sealing gaps of the labyrinth seals.
This is particularly important when using high-pressure steam washers. Cover the gaps if necessary.
Check the drive for loose fastening elements (e.g. screws/bolts). Use an appropriate torque wrench to
tighten bolts. Follow the tightening torques specified in the installation instructions or drawings.
To check the degree of insulation, we recommend measuring the insulation resistance of the stator
winding. The minimum value of the insulation resistance for a motor with a contaminated but dry
surface at 20 °C:
Riso,1000 V ≥ 2,2 MΩ
Ω
