Webinar: Generator Field Monitoring Thursday, August 19, 2021 in Webinar No CommentIntroduction View Webinar Here Generator Field Monitoring combines Premium Shaft Ground Monitoring (SGM) and Rotor Flux Monitoring (RFM) systems into one powerful controller. Plant personnel can achieve the benefits of both systems for better trend analysis and easier system management. shaft ground monitoring Monitoring the shaft grounding allows plants to reduce operation expenses, while optimizing […]
Webinar: Brush Failures and How to Solve Them Thursday, July 15, 2021 in Webinar No Commentcommon oem Problems View the webinar here. Brush Restrictions & Carbon Deposits (Figure 1): Many common failures occur in bound up brushes and restricted brush movement. Restrictions in boxes keep the brush from moving freely and can easily be impaired by the box limitations. Carbon deposits form rough edges on the brush boxes stemming from […]
Webinar: A Case Study on EMI Monitoring Thursday, June 17, 2021 in Case Study, Webinar No CommentIntroduction View the webinar here. Electro – Magnetic Interference (EMI) Monitoring is a non – intrusive, on – line surveillance technique to detect and identify electrical defects in motors, generators, IsoPhase Bus, Transformers, and other electrical systems: Arcing Partial Discharge Gap Discharge Corona Random Noise Micro – Sparking (Rapid Gap Discharge) emi assessment algorithm The […]
Webinar: Brush Condition Monitoring Conversation Thursday, February 18, 2021 in Webinar No Commentwhy monitor brushes? View the webinar here. The number one cause of ring fires is short brushes. The main objective of Brush Condition Monitoring (BCM) is to stop forced outages caused by short brushes. The system allows plants to better plan their maintenance schedules. Plants only pull brushes when needed. This enables a safer work […]
Webinar: EMI Monitoring Conversation Friday, January 15, 2021 in Webinar No CommentIs emi magic? View the webinar here. Electro – Magnetic Interference (EMI) Monitoring may seem like a magic trick. However, the system simply detects conditions associated with EM emissions within the Generator, Isophase Bus, and Transformers. Subject matter experts have been extensively gathering data over the last 40 years. Through their research and testing, they […]
Webinar: Shaft Ground Monitoring Thursday, October 15, 2020 in Webinar No Commentshaft grounding overview View the webinar here. The objective of shaft grounding is to protect the bearings, and to establish a good electrical connection. Shaft voltage, if left unchecked, can cause failures in the bearing surfaces, stator insulation, exciter insulation, and grounding, leading to catastrophic failures. There are three main grounding techniques: Carbon brushes, which […]
