Example:. Provide an estimate L

life for a BSM90 motor with a radial load or
force of 130 lbs (570 N) located 3” (76mm) from the bearing. Operating speed
is 1000 RPM.
1. Determine the systems capacity − at the distance for our application. To
do this, refer to Figure 2-4 and read information from the curve:
a. Locate our distance (3”) on the X axis.
b. Pick a speed (8,000 RPM) and locate the intersect with the 3”.
c. Read the force (100 lbs) on the Y axis.

d. Next, insert these numbers into equation (1) above and solve for
capacity “C” (round off for clarity):

2. Now that capacity is known, it is possible to estimate L

with the
applications load of 130 lbs (570 N) and 1000 RPM.

This relates to 72,795 hours / 8500 hours/yr = 8.56 years.
Conclusion
Life is a statistical calculation based upon 90 percent of identical parts
reaching or exceeding an estimate. It depends on many different factors and
is impossible to predict precisely, however calculations provide a guideline.
Motor Poles
BSM50/63/80 Series motors are 4 pole (2 pole pair)
BSM90/100 Series motors are 8 pole (4 pole pair)
