Wed, Nov 15, 2023
11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EST
Variable speed drives are used in manufacturing applications ranging from conveyors to pumps. This webinar will look at the problem of VFD-caused electrical bearing damage in these applications, and present best practices for mitigating that damage.
The contents of the training include:
- Variable speed/torque applications in manufacturing
- The risk of VFD-sourced shaft voltages, bearing current, and electrical bearing damage
- Bearing frosting, fluting, & failure
- Detection of motor shaft voltages
- Shaft grounding best practices for bearing protection of AC & DC motors
