In the hot climate of Tashkent in summer, engines operate at their thermal limit. High air temperatures impair cooling. Let's look at how to avoid overheating in summer.
Why it is worse in summer
The engine is cooled due to the temperature difference between the housing and the air. When the air is hot, heat dissipation is impaired and the winding heats up more. What worked normally in winter may overheat in summer.
How to prevent overheating
- Cleaning ventilation. Clogged ducts in summer are critical - clean the fins and casing.
- Load control.Do not overload the engine in the heat.
- Ventilate the room.Ensure a flow of fresh air to engine.
- Additional coolingfor critical equipment.
- Temperature controlof housing and bearings.
What to look for
| Sign of overheating | Action |
|---|---|
| Housing is hot (cannot hold hand) | Check the load and ventilation |
| The smell of overheated varnish | Stop immediately |
| Thermal protection activation | Look for the cause |
Overheating in summer accelerates the aging of insulation and leads to rewind. For equipment in hot shops, class H insulation is useful. Regular diagnosis and cleaning before summer prevent accidents.
