Electric Motor Load Testing Equipment

With the motor at normal operating temperature the vibration velocity shall not exceed 2 8 mm s rms or 4 mm s peak in any direction.

Electric motor load testing equipment.

Whether you are testing in a motor repair shop in an industrial plant on a ship or up a wind turbine baker instruments motor test equipment allows you to fully understand the condition of the motor the power supply and the load. Hysteresis eddy current and powder. The menzel electric motor load test stand is the second test facility at our berlin location. 300 2500 kva high power motor test systems our range of options for high power motor testing include.

This diagnostic solution equipment is an accurate testing tool that can easily test ac dc traction and gear reduction motors providing guaranteed motor efficiency. Testing electric motors doesn t have to be a mystery. It was set up in our specially converted test hall in 2013. Peak efficiency is at 7 5 hp.

Baker instruments is a leading provider of test equipment for the electrical condition monitoring of motors generators and coils. Thus a 10 horsepower hp motor has an acceptable load range of 5 to 10 hp. Reasons to determine motor loading most electric motors are designed to run at 50 to 100 of rated load. The test facility for electric motors at van bodegraven elektromotoren has been using measuring equipment from hbm since 2016 to determine parameters including torque rpm voltage and temperature.

The state of the art aw dynamometer can simulate actual motor load conditions while at the same time measure horsepower and torque output and print a validated written. Electric motors have had a reputation for being a mix of science and magic. Motor test equipment magtrol offers three types of dynamometers each with a different braking system to absorb load. For bearings fitted with proximity probes the unfiltered peak to peak value of vibration including shaft run out at any load between no load.

This enables us to make a sort of ecg for each motor states the manager richard renee. Output power up to 10 000 kva. Maximum efficiency is usually near 75 of rated load. Magtrol s dynamometers electronics and software are used for testing all types of electric and pneumatic motors gas engines and gearheads as well as servo drives and inverters.

Medium or low voltage input options. Ac dc or ac dc test systems. Knowledge of the basics together with powerful new test equipment vastly simplifies the job. So when a motor fails to operate it may not be obvious what the problem is.

A motor s efficiency tends to decrease dramatically below about 50 load. Configurations that allow testing of a 10 000 horsepower motor at full load and 50 000 horsepower at no load.
