The worn carbon brush face indicates the operating conditions. Therefore, it can be utilized by brush experts as a highly effective diagnostic tool for troubleshooting and determination of root causes. If these warning signs shown at the brush face can be identified and proactively addressed in a timely manner, then major unexpected expensive catastrophic failures like flashover or repair of the contact surface can be avoided.

This webinar discusses specific procedures to obtain the best possible results when machining & undercutting commutators for DC machines.

Aunque la tracción magnética desbalanceada puede afectar a otras máquinas eléctricas rotativas, como los motores y generadores de CC y monofásicos, nuestro enfoque en este artículo se centrará en los motores jaula de ardilla trifásicos. Los dos temas principales son: La tracción magnética desequilibrada (UMP) y el descentrado del rotor (pullover).

Relevant standards including IEC 60085 and IEEE 1 have similar definitions for electrical insulating materials (EIM) and electrical insulation systems (EIS). As with any system, there is an interaction between the materials used, and the insulation system developers take great care to ensure that this interaction does not lead to undesirable outcomes.

Diferentes normas relevantes incluyendo la IEC 60085 y la IEEE 1 definen de forma similar los materiales electro aislantes (EIM) y los sistemas de aislamiento eléctrico (EIS). Como en cualquier sistema, existe una interacción entre los materiales usados y los diseñadores de los sistemas de aislamiento cuidan todos los detalles para evitar que esta interacción produzca resultados indeseados.

This PowerPoint presentation is available for members to use to present the factors that should be considered when customers are faced with making the difficult decision to repair their existing motor or purchase a replacement.

This webinar explains the DC redesign process along with the other factors often overlooked that should first be considered before a redesign.
