7/19/22©2020 - 2022 IDCON INC15WWW.IDCON.COM© IDCON INC29 KEY HOW WHY Temperature Scan clean areas of motor with an Infrared Temperature Gun (IR-Gun) 1. High temperature in the middle of the motor may indicate damaged winding, or that motor operates close to maximum output capacity. 2. Hot spots at the bearings may be caused by damaged bearings, misalignment, over- or under lubrication. Check if coupling is hot, if it is, the problem may be alignment. Noise and Vibration Listen for abnormal noise and vibration. Listen to the motor closely and try to detect any unusual noise. Vibration can be detected by: 1. feeling motor (subjectively) 2. take vibration reading with vibration pen 3. take full spectrum vibration reading 1. Try to detect unusually high vibration level by putting a hand on different spots on the motor. 2. If a vibration pen is used, it is usually enough to take the vibration reading in the horizontal plane (horizontally mounted motor). The highest vibration value will usually appear in the horizontal plane. To enable trending, mark where to take the reading on the motor. A general guideline for this type of equipment is not to exceed 0.25 in/s (about 6 mm/s). Be aware that this number is a rough guideline and is dependent on rpm, and bearing clearances. If a high vibration level is detected, lubricate the bearings while measuring the vibration level. The vibration level should go down as the grease hits the bearing. When the vibration level stops going down, make sure to stop lubrication. This will ensure that you do not over lubricate. Check the motor 2-3 days later and measure the vibration level again, if the vibration level is high, the lubricant has escaped, or the bearing is damaged. Ask vibration technician to check bearing. For motors in operation where the consequence of a failure costs at least twice as much as the cost of measuring a full vibration spectrum should be recorded every 2-3 weeks. Refer to vibration analysis tools ad procedures. Noise and vibration can be caused by looseness in mounting or coupling, misalignment, worn bearings, damaged winding, broken air intake fan. Equipment near the motor may induce vibration. Over lubrication will either: 1. Increase the heat in the bearing due to increased resistance. Heat will reduce bearing and seal life dramatically. 2. Destroy bearing seal and expose the bearing to dirt which will reduce bearing life dramatically. 1 2 © Copyright IDCON, INC. œ Do Not Copy MOTOR - AC Basic Function An Alternating Current (AC) motor has two major components, the stator and the rotor (see picture). The stator creates a rotating magnetic field. The rotating magnetic field acts on the rotor, causing it to spin due to the rotating magnetic torque. The rotating magnetic field from the stator is produced by the currents that are flowing through the stator windings. The stator windings have several “poles”. The poles are activated by the current at different times, causing the magnetic field to move (rotate). The rotor is built of a number of magnets. The rotor magnets react to the rotating magnetic field, and the rotor starts to rotate with the magnetic field.
