In addition to seal oil, some submersibles have an oil filled stator cavity. The oil in the stator cavity very efficiently transfers heat from the stator winding and core, and especially from the rotor, to the pump casing where convection carries it to the pumpage in which the pump is submerged. While the specifications for seal oil are fairly flexible, stator cavity oil has more constraints.

Además del aceite de sellado, algunas bombas sumergibles tienen una cavidad del estator llena de aceite. Este aceite transfiere de manera muy eficiente el calor desde el devanado y el núcleo del estator, y especialmente desde el rotor, hasta la carcasa de la bomba, donde la convección lo lleva al líquido de bombeo en el que está sumergida. Si bien las especificaciones para el aceite de sellado son bastante flexibles, el aceite de la cavidad del estator tiene más restricciones.

This presentation reviews procedures that explain how to identify unmarked leads of three-phase motors with one or two windings.

When a core loss test reveals localized hot spots, or visual inspection identifies physical damage, the ability to repair the damage in a cost-effective manner means the difference between repair or replacement.

Este webinario incluye procedimientos de prueba, resultados esperados y el uso de cámaras termográficas para determinar posibles problemas en las conexiones o en las soldaduras.

Cuando la resonancia causa una vibración excesiva, es importante identificar la frecuencia natural y la forma modal de la vibración. Una simple prueba de impacto (bump test), realizada a máquina parada, es un buen primer paso para identificar la frecuencia natural.

When resonance does cause excessive vibration, it is important to identify the natural frequency and the mode shape of the vibration. A simple bump test, conducted with the machine not running, is a good first step in identifying the natural frequency.

With the advent of solid-state electronic variable frequency drives (VFDs) in the late 1980s, it was found that the windings of motors used on VFDs failed more frequently than when powered by a utility (sine wave) supply. By the turn of the century, motor manufacturers had gained a better understanding of how VFDs affected motor windings. This article describes the materials and methods associated with inverter duty windings.
