Motor Shaft Grounding
With the introduction of Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) for electric motors, bearing damage from shaft voltages has become a significant concern to facility managers, plant operator and motor repair shops.
The cost associated with motor repairs due to VFD damaged bearings goes way beyond the cost of bearings or even down time.
Aaki Motor Shaft Grounding Modules (MSGMs) offer a simple, cost-effective device to eliminate VFD induced bearing failures in three phase induction motors.
Modules come in two sizes to fit almost any motor configuration, from fractional horse power to hundreds of HP. They are virtually indestructible and will typically outlast the bearings they are built to protect.
However, the MSGM is only part of the solution. A big challenge is the time consuming effort to mount the modules to the motor.
Aaki manufactures a complete line of spacers, washers and extension plates designed specifically to take the challenges out of installation.
The DrillBuddy™ installation tool is a simple device that makes drilling holes in an endbell simple, consistent and worry free – Right the first time, every time.
FleXmount™ brackets and the FleXform™ tool offer a unique method for securely mounting a MSGM to any endbell geometry, quickly and cost effectively, resulting in a professional job every time.
