motor bearing damage induced by bearing current: a review

the occurrence of the motor shaft voltage and bearing current caused by the inverter will aggravate bearing damage and lead to the premature failure of bearings. many types of equipment are being shut down due to bearing currents, such as filters, insulated bearings and grounding brushes. traditional suppression measures cannot eliminate the bearing current and the bearing damage mechanism under the bearing current is not clear. in this paper, the damage caused by the bearing current to bearings is analyzed in detail. the influences of different working conditions on the bearing current and the damage caused are discussed. the source of bearing currents is introduced and the bearing current model under different working conditions is reviewed. an outlook for future studies is proposed, based on the current research status and challenges.

motor bearing failures detection by using vibration data

the use of methodologies for condition monitoring of rotating machines has been growing to reduce unplanned downtime and to increase the reliability of the industrial processes. the companies must select a correct maintenance strategy to follow the evolution of rotating machines. condition monitoring is the collection of data related to the health status of the machine and it has been widely studied so far. different methodologies have been developed to identify specific behaviors in the condition of induction motors. this paper proposes a methodology for bearing failure detection by using vibrations data, based on the frequency spectrum applied to induction motors. this methodology allows the use of vibration data obtained from motor bearings to establish their condition and therefore determine the type of damage to the bearing. the effectiveness of the proposed methodology is validated using a data set obtained from nasa (national aeronautics and space administration). the results showed that this type of approach is very useful for analyzing bearings and in this way creating maintenance routes based on the condition of the electric machines.

understanding vertical motor bearing systems and minimizing their failures | semantic scholar

the number one reason for the removal of vertical motors from service is the failure of the bearing system. these systems can be much more complicated than those used in horizontal motors.the purpose of this paper is to present the various bearing systems used on vertical motors and the reasons why these systems can fail prematurely. suggestions will be given for extending the bearing life including how to specify these bearings and their accessories correctly. the scope of this paper includes motors up to 5000 hp, all speeds and enclosures.
