The measurements shall be carried out with an instrument conforming to ISO 2954 (10-1000
Hz frequency range). With the motor at normal operating temperature, the vibration velocity shall not
exceed 2.8 mm/s RMS, or 4 mm/s PEAK, in any direction.
For bearings fitted with proximity probes, the unfiltered peak-to-peak value of vibration (including shaft
run-out) at any load between no load and full load, shall not exceed the following values:
50 m for two-pole motors
60 m for four-pole motors
75 m for six-pole or higher motors
Bearing temperature rise limits following a heat run of 3.5 4 hours are as follows:
Rolling bearings:
Outer ring measurement max. 90 C
Temperature rise from ambient max. 50 C
Sleeve bearings:
Oil temperature max. 90 C
Bearing temperature rise by RTD max. 50 C
Lub. oil temperature rise from ambient max. 30 C (for forced lub. oil systems).
When commissioning or re-commissioning motors, precautions shall be taken to avoid excessive

vibration caused by the phenomenon known as soft foot; i.e. feet which do not have solid flat contact
with the base prior to the tightening of the holding-down bolts.
This may be measured and rectified during installation or detected during running by the loosening of
each holding-down bolt in turn while measuring motor vibration.
NOTE: Re-machining of rotor feet is required in Figures 4 and 5; temporary use of wedge-shaped
shims may be acceptable (maintenance).
