This is the Motor Circuit Evaluator (MCE) analysis and the Motor Current Analysis (MCA). MCA is concerned with the measurement and diagnosis of a live electrical machine, while MCE is concerned with the measurement and diagnosis of a voltage free electrical machine.
Application areas
The MCE and MCA Analysis are suitable for electrical machines, and the MCA is applicable for the study of the current signature of a motor, as well as the analysis of the voltages, currents and powers of a machine. The MCE is applicable for electrical motors, alternators, transformers, AC/DC traction motors, generators/alternators, machine tool motors, gearboxes, pumps and fans, belted systems among other electrical machines.
What we do
We agree with the customer a periodic monitoring schedule for monthly, quarterly etc, depending on how critical the motor is and the operating environment.
We carry out the following services;
- For MCE, we evaluate the power circuit, and the insulation quality of an electrical machine.
- For MCA, we measure and diagnose an electrical machine in tension, an evaluate the power circuit, power quality, the rotor in Dynamic, the air gap in Dynamic, and the stator in Dynamic.
We provide the customer with results, analysis and recommendations as well in a detailed report.
