The Challenge VFD Motor Face
VFD creates harmful stray currents that travel down the shaft and discharge through the bearings.
VFD induce high frequency voltages on the motor shaft.
Bearing damage due to EDM is becoming a leading cause of motor failure, many cases remain undiagnosed.
Effects of EDM
Fusion craters, pitting, frosting, fluting
Excessive vibration
Noise
Bearing failure
