Construction and Operation of Direct Online Starter Circuit Direct Online Starter or DOL is a simple electromechanical system designed for switching and protection of Induction motors. We all know that motors consume electric power horribly and this high power consumption is the result of current drawn by the winding of the motor. So higher the current drawn by the motor, the higher will be the power… |

Importance of Measuring Rated RPM Manually before Replacing Old Motors with a New One In today’s case study, we have a cement plant, where four dilution air fans (2 fans in each of the 2 units of the kiln) of 225 KW and 744 RPM is under operation. After five years of operation, one of the current motor (fan) was planned to be replaced with the spare motor which was there in the store for the last 4 -5 years. This was planned because the current… |

HT Motor Tripping with Overcurrent fault during GRR Control Can Programming in DCS also lead to Tripping of HT Motors? In today’s case study I am going to present a case involving GRR (Grid Rotor Resistance) which is used in Slip ring induction motor. This type of problem is pretty rare in industries and hence would like to share the experience, so that the problem we faced will not be faced by others or can be avoided… |
