This code includes heating element(s). Heating elements are used to heat the coils of the stator winding when the
motor is not running to prevent moisture from condensing on the surface of the stator coils. When the stator coils
are kept just a few degrees warmer than the stator frame, will moisture from the air condensate on the surface of
the stator frame instead of on the coils. Difference in temperature inside and outside the motor will also cause
over-pressure that keep humidity outside.

Variant code execution

The motor can be equipped with heating elements either at one and or at both ends depending on the motor size.
Please refer to product catalogues for more information about power of heating resistors and amount of heaters.

Position of the heating element

The heating element is tied around the end-coil, see figure 1.

NOTE !

If nothing else is specified the heaters are wired to a terminal block in the main terminal box, a separate auxiliary
terminal box for the heaters connections can be ordered using VC418, VC447 or VC568.
