EQUIPMENT:
Equipment and systems covered by this Certificate are as follows:
The W60 Range of Induction Motors has shaft centre heights ranging from 315 to 1000mm (and NEMA equivalent) and comprises cast iron or

production of electrical energy. The range covers 2 to 14 pole 3 phase windings for 50 or 60Hz and is designed for connection to supplies up
to 13.8kV (Ex "ec")/15kV (Ex "t") except when separately Ex certified items reduce the voltage rating. The motors are rated for duty type
S1,S2,S6 or S9 which does not include starting. The motors have a minimum ingress protection of IP20, which can be increased up to a
maximum IP66 depending on the specific heat exchange and arrangement of the motor shaft seal.
Motors with an IP20 rating are certified Ex nA Gc only (for Zone 2 use) and have a restriction on the intended location for installation. Please
refer to the specific conditions of the certificate.

thermistors can be connected via a standard industrial controller provided that the controller is located in a safe area.
9. Anti-condensation heaters shall not be energised when the machine is energised.
10. Where auxiliary apparatus is fitted that is not covered by this certificate the installer and/or user, as appropriate, must ensure that it is
suitable for the conditions of use and that it does not invalidate this certification.
11. When motors are fitted with the Iris Power terminal box they can only be marked for, and used in, Zone 2 Gas atmospheres.

ANNEX to IECEx BAS 14.0097X Issue No. 3 Date: 30 September 2020
The W60 Range of Induction Motors has shaft centre heights ranging from 315 to 1000mm (and NEMA equivalent) and comprises cast
iron or fabricated mild steel frames for horizontal or vertical mounting. The range of motors can optionally be used as generators for the
production of electrical energy. The range covers 2 to 14 pole 3 phase windings for 50 or 60Hz and is designed for connection to supplies
up to 13.8kV (Ex “ec”) / 15kV (Ex “t”) except when separately Ex certified items reduce the voltage rating. The motors are rated for duty
type S1, S2, S6 or S9 which does not include starting. The motors have a minimum ingress protection of IP20, which can be increased up
to a maximum IP66 depending on the specific heat exchange and arrangement of the motor shaft seal.
Motors with an IP20 rating are certified Ex ec Gc only (for Zone 2 use) and have a restriction on the intended location for installation. Please
refer to the specific conditions of the certificate.
Bearing Arrangements
Spigot housings are machined at either end of the stator frame into which the machined spigots of cast iron or fabricated steel end frames
are fitted. The end shields at the Drive End and Non-Drive End carry the bearing arrangements which may be ball, roller or sleeve and be
grease or oil lubricated. Optionally the motor can be arranged with just one bearing at the Non-Drive End (single bearing motor). Optional
bearing insulation is available and the bearing housings may be cast or fabricated. The bearing housings provide a degree of protection
of at least IP55 for equipment Group II, and IP55 for equipment Group IIIB (EPL Dc) and IP65 for equipment Group IIIC (EPL Db).
Stator
The stator core packs are built from insulated steel laminations which are clamped together by 6 to 12 bars for machines 560 and below
and which are welded and have clamping rings for machines size 630 and above. The wound and impregnated stator assembly is secured
in the stator frame by an interference fit and rotation is further prevented by the use of dowels.
Rotor
The rotor core packs which are built from insulated steel laminations are keyed and/or assembled by interference onto the steel shaft,
located at one end by a shoulder and at the other by a circlip or by circlips on both sides of the shaft. The laminations may be drilled to
allow for radial and/or axial cooling air circulation. The rotor cage is either cast aluminium or built up from copper, aluminium or brass bars.
When a built up rotor is used the copper, brass or aluminium bars are forced into the slots to give an interference fit and end rings are
brazed to the bars.
Balancing of the rotor is achieved either by fixing washers to cast studs on the aluminium rotors only or by fastening washers to the end
rings.
Terminal Boxes
The motors are fitted with separate bolt-on terminal boxes which are manufactured from cast iron or steel and fitted with bolt-on covers
incorporating a gasket which is glued to one surface. Component certified terminal boxes can also be fitted when applicable, as detailed in
the general remarks on this report.
Main terminal boxes may contain insulators, copper bars, current transformers ([Link]), surge arrestors and capacitors to form single or
double cable arrangements of air insulated and phase segregated versions. Neutral connections may also be included as part of the main
terminal box or as a separate unit.
Auxiliary terminal boxes contain IECEx component certified terminals, as detailed below;

Various methods of cooling are used including louvered open air to air, externally ventilated or totally enclosed versions of air to air or air
to water, with or without silencing. In addition, forced ventilation may be used with separately IECEx certified motors and optionally an
IECEx certified encoder or brake may be attached to the main motor shaft.
External fans when used are manufactured from cast iron, welded steel or aluminium containing less than 6% magnesium.
Windings
Low voltage motors are wound using polyester-imide enamel wire with the overhangs suitably insulated and tied with fibreglass. High
voltage motors are wound using either enamelled copper wire with a polyester and glass fibre covering or bare wire with two layers of
special mica tape.
Motors with rated voltages above 4160V have tape applied to protect against corona effects and also have stress relief tape applied. After
winding, the high voltage motors are vacuum impregnated with a bi-component epoxy resin.
Use of Variable Voltage Variable Frequency Drives
The range of W60 motors can be operated with frequency inverters (variable speed drives) in the following conditions:
The range of M-Line motors can be operated with frequency inverters (variable speed drives) in the following conditions/considerations:
- With PWM variable frequency drives, up to 13800 V, insulation system F (or H), are able to operate within their insulation class
limit, respecting the motor temperature class.
- With forced ventilation (independent cooling system) or oversizing, shall be applied in accordance with the application
characteristics due on variation of nominal frequency.
- With safety thermal margin or power derating to operate within insulation class limit B.
- With variable frequency drives with sinusoidal output signal (equipment able to supply motor voltage and current with negligible
harmonic content), or variable frequency drives type PWM fitted with sinusoidal filters in the output. In this condition it is not
expected significant additional temperature rise (over than 10K), beyond the normally shown by the motor under sinusoidal
supply.
- With variable frequency drives that supply motor voltage / current with greater harmonic distortion, may resulting in additional
heating over than 10K. This situation is usually to occur with higher power machines and low voltage (<1000V) and the motor
should be designed properly.
- Oversizing insulation of motors operating with variable frequency drives can be necessary depending on the application
characteristics and variable frequency drive.
- Use of variable frequency drives that supply PWM voltage with presence of common mode components (zero sequence) require
motor insulation oversizing for voltage higher than 4000V.
- Speed x torque curves for motor shall be supplied for application with a variable frequency drives.
Motors shall be fitted with thermal protective devices which shall be connected into the motor control circuit in order to keep T3 or T4
temperature class and or T125°C or T160°C surface temperature for
dust applications. Reenergizing must not be automatic.
Auxiliaries
The auxiliaries which may be fitted to this range of machine are:-
Vibration monitoring sensors.
Winding, bearing, air/water temperature detectors comprising RTD's, thermocouples, thermistors or thermostats. Refer to the
general remarks for further details.
Anti-condensation heaters.
The following IECEx certified components can be used with the machine;

Type Testing
Each motor design shall be subject to a WEG test procedure for Ex ec motors:
Motor with temperature class T3: motor design verification by thermal test without measurement of rotor temperature
Motor with temperature class T4: motor design verification by thermal test with measurement of rotor temperature
Slight variations in motor design already tested can have the temperature class re-verified by calculation.
