Motor Current Signature Analysis

This presentation explores real-world case studies discovering how motor current signature analysis (MCSA) uses voltage and current signals to identify motor faults such as: rotor bar damage, misalignment, mechanical looseness and bearing problems. Cutsforth will walk through data captured in real-world scenarios such as steady-state current events, transient in-rush capture and rotor bar trend data. The audience will learn how MCSA continuously monitors and trends equipment health, alerting personnel before a potential failure occurs. The presentation discusses how plants effectively use MCSA to increase reliability as part of a successful condition-based maintenance strategy.
