Used technology
This electric machine is a Synchronous Reluctance assisted Permanent Magnet (SRPM) machine. This
technology has several benefits compared to standard permanent magnet (PM) technology and
traditional induction machine (IM) technology. The SRPM technology combines the benefits of PM and
Synchronous Reluctance technology, having increased torque capability over wide speed range and
ability to produce torque to higher speeds. The machine efficiency at lower speeds is also good.
The supply current to the stator windings create rotating magnetic field, which in turn rotates the rotor
containing permanent magnets. In the synchronous permanent magnet machine, the rotation of the
rotor (shaft) is synchronized with the frequency of the power supply current. The reluctance technology
maximizes the pull-out torque of the machine.
The permanent magnets of the rotor are of salient-pole design, having embedded permanent magnets in
the rotor structure. This structure makes the machine mechanically more stable and capable of higher
speed operations. See Figure below illustrating the magnet topology of the electric machine. The Figure
shows the principle only, and is not an exact illustration of the structure.

Danfoss provides electric drive trains for applications in heavy mobile work machines, marine vessels and
buses. The drive trains include all essential components from converting from traditional to hybrid
electric (HEV) or electric vehicle (EV) solutions. Danfoss technology saves fuel and lowers emission and
noise levels.
The electric machines are liquid cooled with water/glycol mixture. For more information, see
Chapter Cooling connections.
A low voltage measurement signal connector is attached to the electric machines. Different temperature
and resolver signals can be read, depending on the machine options chosen. For more information about
the connection, see Chapter Low voltage connections.
The electric machines (some models) can be equipped with one or two anti-condensations heater(s),
depending on the machine type and the option chosen. The heater is used to prevent any water
condensing inside the machine enclosure.

This Chapter describes design principles that must be taken into account when designing the system
using the electric machine.
Cooling and temperature measurement
Do not operate the electric machine without correctly dimensioned and operating cooling
system.
Mount the electric machine in correct position, see Chapter Allowed mounting position.
When you connect the cooling system make sure that the cooling medium flows freely in and
out from the electric machine with the cooling medium flow equal or higher than rated.
The cooling medium temperature at the inlet of the electric machine must be lower or equal
to the rated temperature.
See more detailed information about coolant connection bore specifications, required coolant liquid flow
and other specifications in the product data sheet. Rated values can be found from the electric machine
rating plate.
The electric machine has at least one PT100 temperature sensor in the windings. The amount of the
sensors depend on the options chosen. The temperature signal(s) can be read out from the measurement
connector of the machine.
You can connect one temperature signal to the temperature surveillance pin in the inverter (EC-C1200)
and make sure that the inverter has the machine temperature protection feature activated.
The maximum allowed winding temperature of the electric machine is shown in the rating plate and in
the data sheet.
The PT100 temperature sensor characteristics are: resistance 100 Ω at 0 ºC temperature, and the
resistance increases 0.385 Ω per each 1 ºC increase of temperature.
Inverter
The electric machine is intended to be powered and controlled with an inverter capable of supplying
three-phase alternating current and that is capable of controlling the electric machine. The electric
machine is not suitable for direct online use.
If the electric machine is driven with an inverter from a supplier other than Danfoss Editron, the electric
machine performance may differ from rated values. The optimum performance of the electric machine is
obtained with Danfoss Editron inverters. These inverters are:
The main machine power driving parameters are shown in the machine rating plate. For more
information, contact Danfoss representative.
You can connect one of the temperature signals (from the low voltage connector) to the temperature
surveillance pin in the inverter and make sure that the inverter has the machine temperature protection
feature activated.
Supporting structure requirements
Do not install the electric machine near or in direct contact with easily flammable materials.
The surface of the electric machine can be hot.
The mating housing arrangement of the electric machine must be secure and sufficiently rigid to prevent
vibrations and mechanical failures. Necessary actions should be taken to avoid corrosion on the mating
housing arrangement.
The supporting structure for the electric machine must be such that the electric machine can be
mounted using its allowed mounting positions, see Chapter Allowed mounting positions.
The mounting space must be adequate for the electric machine mounting and possible auxiliary
components. See the length and the diameter data of the electric machine from the product drawing.
Main dimensions of the electric machine are shown in the Figure below (the illustration may differ from
the actual electric machine).
The electric machine has a SAE 3 flywheel housing in N-end. The D-end has a circle of bolt holes for
fastening. See specific installation instructions.
Length of the electric machine frame.
Diameter of the flange mounting bore circle.
Diameter of the mounting shoulder.
Diameter of the rotor connection interface.
For all dimensions of the electric machine, see the product drawings.
Shaft alignment and load
Improper alignment (misalignment) may result in bearing overloads, premature bearing
failures, vibrations and shaft failures. Flexible coupling does not compensate for excessive
misalignment.
Alignment between the shaft and mating structure must be accurate.
The misalignment can be parallel or angular misalignment, or combination of those. With parallel
misalignment, the center lines of both shafts are parallel but they are offset. With angular misalignment,
the shafts are at an angle to each other. Figures below illustrate the parallel and angular misalignment.
