Synchronous AC Motors
Based on the extremely successful and reliable DAX generator range, the BRUSH MAX motor range can be fully customised to meet customer specifications. As with our range of DAX generators, the typical operating benefits of the MAX motors are:
Low maintenance
High reliability
More than 30 years expected operating life
Repair and upgrade projects are divided into two phases.
Phase 1 - Includes a full inspection and detailed inspection report. The motor, during this phase, is dismantled, checked and cleaned. Ex motors, upon arrival, are tested.
Phase 2 - The machine is overhauled. Various parts of the machine are replaced and after equalising of the nominal rotor speed, the motor is remounted. An extensive test is conducted on the motor before it is shipped including:
Measurement of vibrations according to IEC 60034-14
Measurement of the temperature of the bearings
Electrical measurement of resistance values and Polarization Index (PI) values
High voltage test according to IEC 60034-1 standards (required for ex-machines)
