Shaft Grounding Ring Handbook Details Best Practices for Motor Repairs

The 36-page “AEGIS® Shaft Grounding Ring Motor Repair Handbook” from Electro Static Technology describes best practices for protecting motor bearings from electrical damage. The book explains how to diagnose electrical bearing damage caused by variable-frequency drives (VFDs) and describes best practices for preventing such damage to motors of various sizes and horsepower ratings.

Suitable for use by plant maintenance personnel and motor repair shops, the handbook is available in PDF format for downloading free of charge at www.est-aegis.com/bearing.

AEGIS bearing protection rings channel VFD-induced bearing currents to ground. Continuous circumferential rows of conductive microfibers embedded in the ring’s patented AEGIS FiberLock™ channel surround the motor shaft and provide millions of discharge points for shaft currents.
