Advanced Motor Diagnostics

The Multilin M60 provides advanced motor

diagnostics including a broken rotor bar

detection function.  The broken rotor bar

detection is a condition maintenance

function that continuously monitors the

motor’s health while in operation.  The

advanced Motor Current Signature Analysis

(MCSA) continuously analyzes the motor

current signature and based on preset

algorithms, will determine when a broken

rotor bar is present in the motor. With fully

programmable alarms, the broken rotor bar

function will provide early detection of any

rotor problems and advise maintenance

personnel of the impending issue, allowing

for predictive maintenance of the motor and

prevention of catastrophic motor failures.

By providing early indication of potential

rotor problems, serious system issues,

such as reduced starting torque, overloads,

torque and speed oscillation and bearing

wear, can be avoided.  With the advanced

broken rotor bar detection system,

advanced warning of impending problems

reduces catastrophic failures, maximizing

motor life and system uptime.
