4.9 Voltage and frequency fluctuations during line operation
If nothing else is stamped on the nameplate, then the permissible voltage fluctuation is ±5 %
and the permissible frequency fluctuation is ±2 %, corresponding to range A in
IEC / EN 60034‑1. Permissible fluctuations that go beyond this are specified on the nameplate,
e.g. voltage fluctuation of ±10 % corresponding to range B in IEC / EN 60034‑1.
The following applies: Under practical operating conditions a machine may sometimes have
to be operated outside the limits of Range A. Exceptions of this sort should be limited with
regard to the values that arise, how often and for how long they occur. Where possible and
within a reasonable time take corrective actions such as reducing the power. Such actions can
avoid thermal ageing leading to a reduction in the service life of the machine.
NOTICE
Overheating of the winding
Exceeding the permissible tolerances for voltage and frequency can lead to an impermissibly
high temperature rise in the windings and thus cause long-term damage to the machine.
4.10 System-inherent frequencies
NOTICE
Machine damage caused by system resonances
The system consisting of the foundation and machine set must be configured and matched
in such a way that no system resonances can arise and result in the permissible vibration
levels being exceeded. Excessive vibrations can damage the machine set. The vibration limit
values according to DIN ISO 10816-3 must not be exceeded.
