Service centers are often called on to provide replacement pumps or pump motors or to advise on pump retrofit and re-application projects. A good understanding of the parameters that govern pump performance is essential to help customers with these opportunities. The information here relates to rotodynamic pumps (centrifugal and axial flow impellers) and not to positive displacement pumps.

En este webinario explicaremos como los diferentes cambios efectuados en el bobinado impactan en el desempeño del motor. Si no es realizado de forma correcta, cualquier cambio en el bobinado podría llegar a tener consecuencias negativas.

When an AC motor is initially energized at rated voltage (and frequency), the current drawn is many times rated current until the motor attains full operating speed. Consequences of starting current include short time overheating of stator windings and rotors, undesirable operation of overload protective devices and a sag in the supply voltage.

Cuando se energiza inicialmente un motor de CA a su voltaje nominal (y frecuencia), el motor toma varias veces la corriente nominal hasta que alcanza toda la velocidad de operación. Las consecuencias de la corriente de arranque incluyen: Breve sobrecalentamiento de los bobinados del estator y del rotor, disparos no deseados de los dispositivos de protección y caídas de voltaje en el suministro eléctrico.

EASA's most comprehensive technical document is available FREE to EASA members. Download the complete manual or just the sections you're interested in.

Intended primarily for service center personnel, the guide which is now an independent document and not part of the complete EASA/AEMT rewind study report, outlines the good practice repair methods used to achieve the results given in both studies. It contains repair tips, relevant motor terminology, and information about sources of losses in induction motors that affect efficiency.

Here is a random collection of some relatively common misconceptions about three-phase squirrel cage motor performance characteristics.

Aquí tenemos una colección de algunos de los conceptos errados más comunes acerca de las características de desempeño de los motores eléctricos tipo jaula.

This webinar covers the results and the technical details of the recently completed follow-up to the 2003 EASA/AEMT Rewind Study.

What are the normal conditions for which a motor is designed? This is a question that does not often come up except when there is an issue with a motor application.
