Features
- This is a device that records the number of discharges that occur in an electric motor.
- This compact, handheld device can easily detect electrical discharges that occur inside the bearings of electric motors.
- A discharge occurs when the motor shaft voltage flows through the bearings to earth, causing corrosion and breakdown of the lubricant, resulting in bearing damage.
- When electric motors are controlled by variable frequency drive systems, the bearings are more susceptible to electrical discharge erosion.
- As part of a predictive maintenance program, discharge check pens can detect bearings that are about to fail, preventing downtime caused by unexpected machine failures.
Purpose
- To check whether or not there is a discharge.
