Accurate analysis with SKF static motor analyser series

April 2015 Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration

The Baker DX static motor analyser series from SKF offers industrial motor maintenance, motor service and OEM manufacturing facilities, fast and accurate motor and generator analysis.

Designed for use in motor test/maintenance, industrial, and OEM motor manufacturing environments, the instruments assist users with efficiently and accurately identifying potential problems with motors and generators to prevent breakdowns to avoid costly production downtime.

The Baker DX series has expansive functionality and can perform motor tests from 4-40 kV. It can also be configured with just the test functions customers wish to have.

These instruments, which replace the previous-generation Baker D- and ST-series surge test analysers, include low-voltage inductance, impedance, phase angle and capacitance, coil, and DC step voltage tests in a smaller, lighter-weight portable unit. Like their predecessors, these analysers also conduct winding resistance, megohm, DC HiPot, surge tests and DC ­bar-to-bar armature tests.

A wide array of configuration options and accessories including coil test, resistance-inductance-capacitance test, DC armature test, simple meg-ohm test, and either single- or three-lead configurations are available to meet specific application requirements. All units are supplied with a more intuitive, easy-to-navigate touch screen graphical user interface, and can be ordered in an array of configurations that suit individual customer needs.
