We move beyond basic motor checks (amperage, resistance, mega-checks) and show you how to set up preventative diagnostics using the PowerFlex 525 drive and Connected Components Workbench (CCW).

Learn how to:

  • Establish a baseline for motor health by trending output current and frequency in CCW.

  • Configure the PowerFlex 525 to alarm on high or low current to catch issues like seizing bearings or broken couplings before a catastrophic failure.

  • Access and decode the historical fault data stored within the PowerFlex 525, including fault current, run-time hours, and frequency at the time of the event.

Using CCW and the built-in features of the PowerFlex 525, you can gather essential data without needing a PLC, saving you significant troubleshooting time.
