…think of it as an insurance policy to prevent premature motor bearing failure for ‘critical’ items of plant on a process line where downtime is deemed taboo!....

…….it’s a small price to pay by comparison

With Engineering Carbon Products (ECP) forming an integral part of the ‘eCarbon’ group, we are now much better positioned to be able to bring new and innovative products to market which can be fitted retrospectively or indeed factory fitted.

A build up of static or induced currents will discharge via the path of least electrical resistance, normally via the bearings and can lead to premature motor failure in as little as six months in extreme cases. 

 

‘Bearing Protectors’ can save thousands of pounds in unplanned machine and plant down time as well as the added cost of repair. 

 

In operation, these units allow the safe passage of static and induced currents to safely discharge to earth and thus prevent the effects of bearing ‘pitting’, noisy bearings and ultimately premature bearing failure.

 

 

 

Recommended Applications
Motors or Generators inherently known to suffer from premature or regular bearing failure
Material transport system drives – prone to build-ups of static electricity
Air conditioning/ventilation system drives
Main drive motors
Motors ‘critical’ to the manufacturing process
Shaft earthing

Benifits
Bearing longevity
Increased motor, machine & plant reliability
Easy installation
Low initial cost by comparison 
Fast & easy carbon brush replacement
