Introduction

Standard Operating conditions

ABB has great experience in offering

Crane and Hoist duty motors both for
DOL operation as well as for VFD
applications.

Voltage 415V+/-10%
Frequency 50Hz+/-5%
Combined Voltage & Frequency
variation +/-10% ( absolute sum )
Ambient temperature:- 50 deg /45 deg
Altitude:-1000m

They conform to IS : 325 for Threephase Induction Motors and IS : 4722

for Rotating Electrical Machines .The
size of the motor is governed by the
mechanical effects of starting and
braking fuctions, the type of control and
the number of switching per hour. The
rated output, the number of starts/hour
and the inertia (i.e load GD2 +rotor
GD2) are interdependent.
With drive , its become utmost important
that the motors are selected suitably
considering the load details. The
selection of motors is done through
dedicated ABB software Drive Size TM
which takes care of all the proper
margins required as per application .
Thus ensuring motors can be used for
longer period of time with optimum
performance levels.
Scope:Crane duty Motors suitable for DOL &
VFD applications.

Motor Selection Procedure:FOR DOL :The motors are selected from the chart
after matching the required starts stops
per hour & corresponding CDF .
FOR VFD :The motors are selected from the chart
based on the given mechanical KW .The
final motor KW is selected based on the
starts stops per hour , CDF & deration
on account of Drive. Depending upon
the type of crane employed , user has to
take applicable service factor as per IS
2231& IS4137 & correct the mechanical
KW accordingly. The permissible
temperature rise i.e, Class B will be
corresponding to the given mechanical
KW .

Duty Cycle:The duty types are indicated by the

symbols S1 ... S9 according to IS:128241989. The outputs given in the tables are
based on continuous running duty. S1
with rated output.
S2
Short-time duty
Operation at constant load during a
given time, less than required to reach
thermal equilibrium, followed by a rest
and de-energised period of sufficient
duration to re-establish motor
temperatures equal to the ambient or the
coolant temperature. The values 10, 30,
60 and 90 minutes are recommended for
the rated duration of the duty cycle.
Designation e.g. S2 60 min.

S3
Intermittent duty
A sequence of identical cycles, each
including a period of operation at
constant

too short for thermal equilibrium

to be obtained. The starting current
does not significantly affect the
temperature rise.Recommended values
for the cyclic duration factor are 15, 25,
40 and 60%. The duration of the duty
cycle is 10 min.Designation e.g. S3 25%
S4
Intermittent duty with starting
A sequence of identical duty cycles,
each cycle including a significant period
of starting, a period of operation at
constant load and rest and de-energised
period. The period

is too short for thermal equilibrium to be

obtained. In this duty type the motor is
brought to rest by the load or by
mechanical braking, where the motor is
not thermally loaded. After the duty type
the following factors must be indicated;
the cyclic duration factor; the number of

duty cycles per hour (c/h); the factor of

inertia FI; the moment of inertia, J, of
the motor rotor; and the permissible
Maverage moment of resistance, T,
during the change of the Vspeed given
with the rated load torque. The factor
inertia FI is the ratio of the total moment
of inertia, to the moment of inertia of the
motor rotor.2Designation e.g. S4 - 25% 129 c/h - FI.2 - J= 0,1 kgm - T = M V0,5
T.V

S5
Intermittent duty with starting and
electrical braking .
A sequence of identical duty cycles,
each cycle consisting of a significant
period of starting, a period of operation
at constant load, a period of rapid
electric braking and a rest and deenergised period. The period is too short
for thermal equilibrium to be
obtained.After the duty type the
following factors must be indicated: the
cyclic duration factor; the number of
duty types per hour (c/h); the factor of
inertia FI; the moment of inertia J, of
the motor, and the Mpermissible
moment of resistance T (see duty type
S4.)V2Designation e.g. S5-40% -120
c/h- FI.3 - J= 1,3 kgm - T = 0,3 T.

Note:-

1)Maximum permissible Mechanical KW has been calculated based on VVVF supply & duty cycles
2)Separate derations are required for different service factors for different cranes & ambient temperature
3)Speed range 10-100%
4)Load GD square is assumed to be equal to motor GD square
5)For class H insulation & temperature rise limited to Class F , 15% higher mechanical KW can be considered.
