Why Do Motors Fail?

Motor failures never happen at a convenient time, often striking when resources are limited and downtime is costly. Join Noah Bethel for this upcoming webinar to learn the most common causes of electric motor failure and proven troubleshooting strategies to quickly identify root causes, reduce downtime, and accelerate MTTR.

Magnetostriction: The Reason for 100Hz or 120Hz Vibration in Electric Motors

Whenever a magnetic object or ferrous object is subjected to a magnetic field, it reacts to the forces. This phenomenon is called magnetostriction.

Electrical and Current Signature Analysis of Electric Motors and Driven Equipment

The paper identifies the approach for electrical and mechanical conditions through direct and belt coupled applications and how driven equipment, and loads are evaluated through those coupling types. We will focus on two types of technologies including a 3-phase voltage and current ESA and a single-phase CSA system. The focus will be on CSA but will distinguish what the addition of voltage as part of the measurement will provide.

Electrical and Current Signature Analysis of Unloaded and Loaded Electric Motors

In this presentation we will demonstrate both ESA and MCSA using two separate systems comparing various loads. This will also demonstrate how expert-ESA/MCSA combined with ML/AI can both immediately detect existing conditions as well as long-term anomaly detection. We will also use the opportunity to demonstrate changes in losses in bearings under different load conditions.
