During transportation, precautions must be taken to prevent damage to the vibration motor and ensure the safety of personnel. All transportation operations must comply with applicable safety and accident prevention regulations.

Appropriate transport restraints must be provided to prevent impacts and vibrations encountered during sea, road, or rail transportation from damaging the eccentric weight assemblies.

When lifting the motor, use the integral lifting points on the motor housing. Do not attach additional loads to the motor or lift it by its protective covers.

The motor must be transported with its mounting feet properly supported. After transportation, inspect the mounting surfaces and protective covers for damage.

Kem-P vibration motors should be stored indoors in a dry environment. The ambient storage temperature must not exceed 40°C, and the terminal box cover and bearings must be protected against impact and vibration.

If outdoor storage is unavoidable, the motor must be protected against moisture, and measures must be taken to prevent water accumulation.

Vibration motors must be stored on a suitable raised surface or shelf to prevent exposure to ground moisture.

Kem-P vibration motors feature an enclosed, vibration-resistant housing designed to meet the mechanical requirements of industrial vibrating equipment.

The motor housing features integral lifting points to facilitate handling and installation. The stator is securely fitted within the housing, while the bearing arrangement is designed to withstand the forces generated during operation.

Eccentric weight assemblies are fitted at both ends of the motor shaft to generate centrifugal force. These assemblies are enclosed by protective covers. The terminal box is mounted on the motor housing and secured with a protective cover.

Proper installation is essential for reliable vibration motor operation. Before installation, inspect the motor and supplied components for completeness and any damage sustained during transportation.

The mounting surface must be flat, sufficiently rigid to withstand vibration, and properly machined. It must be free from paint, rust, grease, oil, and other contaminants that could compromise installation.

The motor must be securely fastened using mounting hardware of the appropriate size and quantity for the application. Fasteners must be tightened to the specified torque values for the motor model.

Approximately 15–20 minutes after initial commissioning, stop the motor and recheck the mounting bolts using a suitable torque wrench. Repeat this inspection after 2–3 hours and again at the end of the operating day.

Kem-P vibration motors are supplied with a standard factory setting of 100% centrifugal force. This setting may be adjusted according to application or customer requirements.

The inner eccentric weights at both ends of the motor must be adjusted to the same setting or graduation mark. In systems using two vibration motors, the centrifugal force settings of both motors must also be identical.

Unequal adjustment of the eccentric weights may generate uncontrolled shear forces and damage both the vibration motor and the connected machinery. Centrifugal force adjustments must therefore be carried out carefully, ensuring identical settings at both ends.

Electrical connections for Kem-P vibration motors must be performed by qualified electrical personnel in accordance with applicable electrical safety standards and regulations.

Cable entries, blanking plugs, and the terminal box cover must be properly sealed to maintain the motor's ingress protection rating. Depending on the model, Kem-P motors may have IP66, IP65, or IP69K protection ratings.

Motors are supplied ready for star (Y) connection and may also be operated in delta (Δ) configuration when the supply voltage and motor ratings permit. Each vibration motor must be protected by an individual motor protection circuit breaker.

In applications requiring counter-rotating vibration motors, the motors must rotate in opposite directions.

Before commissioning, insulation resistance should be checked, particularly for vibration motors that have been stored or out of service for extended periods.

Insulation resistance is measured between the windings and the motor frame using a 500 V DC test voltage. According to the KEM-P technical information referenced, unused windings at a temperature of 25°C should have an insulation resistance greater than 10 MΩ. The stated critical minimum insulation resistance is approximately 1 MΩ, with reference to EN 60034-1.

If the measured resistance falls below the specified minimum, the motor must not be commissioned.

The windings must be properly dried or the motor referred for technical inspection. Following two years of storage or inactivity, the grease must be replaced before recommissioning, as specified in the technical instructions. During operation, the temperature measured on the upper surface of the stator housing must not exceed 80°C. These measurements and electrical inspections must only be performed by qualified personnel.

Repair work on vibration motors must be carried out using components compatible with the motor's technical specifications.

Kem-P specifies the use of genuine spare parts or components that comply with applicable standards. Any technical intervention must take into account the motor's construction, operating characteristics, and safety requirements.

For maintenance or repair assistance, contact the Kem-P technical support team and provide the relevant motor specifications.
