Press Release Summary:
Available in 4 kV, 6 kV, 6 kV high output, 12 kV, and 12 kV high output versions, DX Series provides low-voltage inductance, impedance, phase angle/capacitance, coil, and DC step voltage tests to identify potential problems with motors and generators. Portable units can also conduct winding resistance, megohm, DC HiPot, surge tests, and DC bar-to-bar armature tests. Equipped with touchscreen GUI, analyzers can be ordered in variety of configurations to suit specific needs.
Original Press Release:
SKF Launches New Generation of Static Motor Analysis Equipment
New series of static motor analyzers provide industrial motor maintenance, motor service and OEM manufacturing facilities with the broadest functionality of any surge test instrument on the market today.
SKF today announced the new SKF Static Motor Analyzer - Baker DX models, which will replace older-generation Baker D-series and ST series surge test analyzers, and perform motor and generator analysis faster and more accurately than previous generation models. The new instruments help users efficiently and accurately identify potential problems with motors and generators to prevent breakdowns that result in costly production downtime or interrupts.
These new instruments now 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 analyzers also conduct winding resistance, megohm, DC HiPot, surge tests and DC bar-to-bar armature tests. All units come with a more intuitive, easy-to-navigate touch screen graphical user interface, and can be ordered in an array of configurations that suit the specific needs of a given customer.
The Baker DX series is designed for use in motor test/maintenance, industrial, and OEM motor manufacturing environments. The analyzer can perform motor tests from 4 to 40 kV (with an optional Power Pack), and can be configured with just the test functions customers wish to have. Baker DX analyzers have all of the motor test capabilities of Baker D-series and ST-series testers, including compatibility with SKF power pack units.
The new analyzers are available today in 4kV, 6kV, 6kV HO (high output), 12kV, and 12kV HO versions, along with a wide array of configuration options and accessories to meet specific application needs. Such options include coil test, resistance-inductance-capacitance test, DC armature test, simple meg-ohm test, and either single- or three-lead configurations.
Units may be ordered in the U.S. through authorized distributors, or from SKF partners and distributors throughout Europe, Asia, Latin America, Australia, Africa the Middle East and Canada.
