Motor Current Signature Analyzer

Scroll down

ARTESIS unique patented technology utilizes model-based voltage and current system approach to detect wide range of faults on electric motors. This model-based approach works on the principle that the current drawn by an electric motor is affected by not only the applied voltage but also the behaviour of both the motor and the driven equipment. It identifies the distortions of the current waveform that have not been caused by distortions on the voltage waveform and therefore must have been caused by the behaviour of the motor and driven equipment system. The frequency of these distortions indicates the nature of the cause, and the magnitude of the distortions indicates the severity of the cause.

Compared to Vibration Analysis, Artesis technology is more sensitive to torsional phenomena, whereas Vibration systems are more sensitive to radial phenomena. Model-based system can detect a wide range of mechanical phenomena inside the motor and driven equipment, not only related to bearings but also to common issues such as misalignment and unbalance. It also detects a range of electrical problems such as broken rotor bars and loose motor windings.The measurement carried out by Artesis Solutions is also called Motor Electrical Signature Analysis as it measures both current and voltage using the CT & PT. Some instruments measure only Current. Hence, it is called Motor Current Signature Analysis.

Model-based voltage and current analysis measure a range of electrical parameters such as Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), Voltage Imbalance and Current Imbalance that can themselves contribute to longer term mechanical as well as electrical problems. These parameters can also give rise to vibration signals, that can sometimes be misinterpreted by Vibration Analysis as mechanical faults such as bearing problems. Because these electrical parameters are being directly measured by Artesis technology such false diagnosis can be avoided.

Artesis Solutions can detect Electrical, Mechanical & Process related faults.
