Determining the source of noise in a motor is often much more challenging than correcting it. However, a methodical approach to investigating the noise can narrow down the possible causes and therefore make it easier to resolve the noise issue. In this session we will address the causes and characteristics of the primary sources of noise in AC motors. Specific topics to be addressed:  

• Magnetic noise (aka “electromagnetic noise” or “electrical noise”) 
• Mechanical noise 
• Windage noise 
• Guidance for reducing or eliminating the intensity of these noise sources

This webinar recording is intended for mechanics, supervisors and testing technicians.
