Duration: 1 hour
Summary
Electrical maintenance professionals have several technologies at their disposal to implement a predictive maintenance program. But with such choices, there are trade-offs.
This webinar will explore four common predictive maintenance technologies: ultrasonic analysis, vibration analysis, infrared thermography, and electric motor current signature analysis.
Gene Vogel, Pump & Vibration Specialist for the Electrical Apparatus Service Association (EASA), will discuss the best uses for each of these technologies as well as what information can and should be monitored. He will also cover how to interpret the information and apply those concepts in the field as well as describe the specific limitations of each technology – essential information to consider when selecting a specific predictive maintenance strategy.
Attendees will come away with all the tools they need to make more informed predictive maintenance decisions that will ultimately translate into cost savings, increased operational efficiency, and reduced downtime.
