How Can the Quality and Dependability of Commercial Motors Be Evaluated?

Improving energy efficiency is the cleanest, most cost-effective, and fastest method of delivering reliable electricity. Motors utilize about 46% of all electricity and 69% of all energy used in the industrial sector. Utilization of energy is one of the greatest obstacles faced by many organizations. The most critical issue to overcome is the poor architecture and energy use. Poor design and poor use are the primary causes of high energy prices and the inability to fulfil the rising demand for power. Most motors operate between 50% and 100% of their rated load, but at 75% of their rated load, they are at their most efficient. As the motor ages, this efficiency tends to diminish. At 50% load, the efficiency of an electric motor begins to decrease on its own. 

Four Factors Impact a Motor’s Performance:

  • Poor power quality has a direct impact on the operation of a motor: transients, imbalances, sags, swells, and harmonics can all cause considerable damage and, in extreme cases, render the motor inoperable.
  • When a motor produces rotational force to drive a mechanical load at the rated speed of the spinning shaft, torque is produced. The running of the electric motor at the appropriate frequency and torque speed ensures its dependability. The performance of an electric motor may be assessed by measuring torque.
  • This section discusses the operation of an electric motor and its characteristics. When a motor is mechanically overworked, its connections, bearings, and insulation are strained. This impacts the efficiency of the motor and may cause it to malfunction or cease performing sooner than intended.
  • In conclusion, a motor’s efficiency has a direct impact on its profitability. The first step in predictive and preventive maintenance is the collecting of baseline data.

Annually, 75% of industrial motor failures lead to 1-6 days of plant downtime. 90% of motor failures occur within a month after receiving a warning, whereas 36% occur within a day. To prevent motor failure and operational issues Regularly evaluating, analysing, inspecting, and auditing your electric motors can help you avoid problems and enhance their performance and dependability.

Section of Motor Performance Statistics:

Over a period of 53 years, the efficiency of an induction motor increased by 68 percent. (1960 to 2013). Reducing losses in electric induction motors over one year will increase their efficiency. The energy use of an induction motor has decreased with time (data of 45 kW, 4p design motor). CareLabs evaluates the performance and durability of electric motors in a variety of commercial and industrial applications. We check and determine the source of the problem, allowing you to decrease losses and increase motor efficiency. Our objective as competent and knowledgeable technicians is to provide outstanding customer care.

Methods for Evaluating the Performance of Electric Motors:

  • Before performing the audit, we gather and review any paperwork pertaining to the location.
  • Create a one-line diagram and a check list to enhance your reputation.
  • Using the inspection checklist for electrical motors, continue the audit.
  • After completing the check list, the specialists test and evaluate the electrical motor.
  • Obtain the electric motor’s inspection results.
  • Examine the load flow and power quality for any potential issues.
  • If difficulties develop, our experts will guarantee that they are resolved.
  • Determine if your engine fulfils national performance requirements.
  • Provide a digital report with safety recommendations.

CareLabs performs motor acceleration testing to ensure that the motor performs best under high-load circumstances and that productivity is maximized (by mitigating the losses). The removal of losses also improves the reliability of motors. We provide motor start analysis services in Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, and Kyoto, among other important cities.

Among the Advantages of Power System Analysis Are the Following:

  • The electricity infrastructure has been upgraded.
  • Using the proper equipment with the appropriate power rating.
  • Electrical dangers will be less dangerous and safer.
  • Adhere to all relevant electrical installation regulations and legislation.
  • The proposal of several techniques to improve the system’s performance and dependability.
  • For future inspections, a record of the current state of the power system is preserved.

CareLabs provides Load Flow analysis, Short Circuit analysis, and Relay coordination analysis to monitor the voltage at various buses in addition to the actual and reactive power flow between buses, analyze the system under various fault conditions, and determine how well the system handles small and momentous changes. If your company in Japan need an audit of its power system, please contact us, or request a quotation We will contact you within 24 hours by one of our customer service specialists.
