Grundfos MG 80B2 User Manual

4.2 Drain holes
As standard, MG motors have drain holes in the drive end of the
stator housing.
If the motor is installed in a humid environment or in areas with high
air humidity, open the bottom drain hole. The drain holes enable the
escape of water which has entered the stator housing, for instance
through condensation.
If the drain plug is removed, the motor enclosure class will
change from IP55 to IP44.

Motor bearings
The motor bearing type is stated on the nameplate.
4.3.1 Motors with lubricating nipples
Frame size 160 and 180 motors have lubricating nipples both in the
drive end and the non-drive end. The bearings are lubricated from
factory and should therefore not be lubricated until commissioning.
The lubricating intervals are stated on the nameplate with
mechanical data. For information about lubrication and
maintenance of bearings, see the section about motor bearings.
