Solutions Engineering Ltd, Stoke-on-Trent 01782 657000
All motor rewind units are tested under Baker Test, also known as Surge test analysis, helps to assess turn to turn and phase to phase insulation strength - early detection of weakness avoids early failure.
Tests include:
- Surge test
- Polarization index (PI)/dielectric absorption (DA) test
- DC step voltage/DC hipottest
- Meg-Ohm test
- Winding resistance test
VPI - Vacuum Pressure Impregnation
VPI can also be used to reverse the process to remove moisture from core of motor.
A manufactured motor where Solutions Engineering Ltd had to manufacture a complete new end shield and flange due to obsolete parts thus avoiding replacing the motor and providing considerable savings to client.
A large DC motor during overhaul where a new brush gear has been installed onto a fully refurbished commutator.
