AC Drives and VFD
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.
