Do you have customers with high ambient temperatures, motors operating at higher elevations, or in a partial vacuum? This webinar explains the challenges our industry faces when dealing with motors operating at high altitude, especially above 9,000’ (3000 meters), high ambient temperature applications (kilns or ovens), and negative pressure applications.  

Topics include: 

  • Thick air cools better than thin air 
  • Assumptions about cooler temperatures at higher elevations do not hold true if motors are operating indoors 
  • Negative pressure does not just mean less air for cooling, but also less air as insulation 
  • Practical methods to cool the motor even when it is operating in a kiln or oven 

Target Audience: Managers, engineers, supervisors and field service technicians will benefit from this webinar.
