Having a “Motor Management Program,” at your facility, is essential to proper maintenance and monitoring of operational assets as well as proper testing and storage of all your spares. In this article we will address some critical aspects of Motor Management, with an emphasis on spare motors. Some of the key components for success of motor management are:
While an infrared camera’s standard lens is likely fine for most circumstances, the option to add a telephoto or wide-angle lens can prove useful in certain building inspection situations. First, if you are new to infrared and think you might have the need for an optional lens, know that not all camera models are designed for one, so be sure to check this before you buy. These are also optional accessories so be sure it fits within your budget.
When presented with a limited budget, it can be difficult to procure all the necessary assets to support your plant's operational needs as well as the equipment for monitoring your current assets. A good option to enable savings and provide more diverse equipment is to procure used instruments. Having more properly functioning equipment that is older is better than having a few new instruments.
Les systèmes de lubrification et systèmes hydrauliques sont d’excellent sujets pour les inspections thermographiques. Avec une caméra infrarouge, vous pourriez vérifier plusieurs problèmes potentiels, notamment avec :
Le chemin d’écoulement du fluide de lubrification
Les vannes soit peuvent fuir ou être mal installées et sont capables de laisser les fluides lubrifiants couler dans le sens contraire. Les conduites et la tuyauterie à haute température indiquent le débit des fluides.
Spiral Heating caused by broken or snipped conductors (above).
Resistance, opposition to current flow in a circuit. Connection anomalies pose resistance problems in our motor circuits and if they are not identified and corrected, they can have deleterious effects. Normal things that affect circuit resistance are:
