7.2 Indications of Abnormal Operation
The WTVB05 sensor helps detect issues that can lead to equipment failure. Understanding these indications is crucial for effective monitoring:
- Abnormal Motor Vibration:
- Impaired winding insulation and bearing life, reduced lubrication effectiveness.
- Vibration widening insulation gaps, allowing dust and moisture ingress, increasing breakdown risk.
- Damage to cooler water pipes due to vibration and cracking.
- Increased wear on carbon brushes and slip rings, leading to noise pollution.
- Decreased equipment stability due to loose or broken anchor bolts.
- Affected workpiece processing accuracy and compromised product quality.
- Abnormal Motor Surface Temperature: Normal motor operation maintains its surface temperature within a specific range. Factors like overload or voltage fluctuations can alter this temperature. Monitoring these changes allows for adjustment of technical parameters to ensure stable motor operation.
