Now, the saying goes..."there are two things in life that are certain...death and taxes". Well, in the Automation world, there is one more... "motor-failure". No matter what kind, size, or shape of the motor, there is always the risk of a potential motor failure. In a perfect world, one would like to be able to predict when a motor is going to fail, but we all know that is impossible. Until now....
I'd like to introduce you to the FCI "MOTOR+MEDIC". The MOTOR+MEDIC provides you with the diagnostic information you need to recognize an impending motor
failure, or the conditions, if not resolved, will lead to a motor failure. The MOTOR+MEDIC not only works as an over-load relay, but also as a motor system monitor. The MOTOR+MEDIC allows you to view of the inner workings of your motor and lets you choose which parameters you want to control and monitor.
The MOTOR+MEDIC is equipped with a software suite that allows you to sample your motor's health on a steady or periodic basis. Allowing you to view trend data and alarm data over time are just two of the benefits this product offers. The MOTOR+MEDIC protects your 3-phase motor from low and high voltage, low and high current, current and voltage imbalance, ground fault and more. It provides over-load restart, under-load restart, and is a UL/CSA approved over-load.
