The motor heats up when acid-resistant water pumps are in use. Many of the reasons are because the configuration power does not match. Users of common anti-corrosion pumps know that the pump has a standard configuration power according to the parameters. This standard configuration is basically determined by the specific gravity of water, and the specific gravity of concentrated acid is far. Far more than the specific gravity of water, then the motor is also equipped with standard configuration to achieve the set parameters. Under this working condition, the motor generates heat, which leads to burning. The following summarizes several common reasons and solutions for motor heating. Ways, I hope it can be helpful to you.
Acid-resistant water pump
1. Winding short-circuit, inter-turn short-circuit, phase-to-phase short-circuit and winding open circuit
After the insulation between two adjacent wires in the winding is damaged, the two conductors collide, which is called a winding short circuit. Winding short circuits that occur in the same winding are called inter-turn short circuits. A winding short circuit that occurs between two phase windings is called an interphase short circuit. Either way, it will increase the current of one phase or two phases, causing local heating, and aging the insulation and damaging the motor. Winding open circuit refers to the fault caused by the broken or blown-out of the stator or rotor winding of the motor. Whether the winding is short-circuited or open, it may cause the motor to heat up or even burn. Therefore, it must be shut down immediately after this situation occurs.
2. Abnormal bearing operation will inevitably cause the motor to heat up
Whether the bearing works normally can be judged by hearing and temperature experience. You can check the bearing end with your hands or a thermometer to determine whether the temperature is within the normal range; you can also use a listening rod (copper rod) to touch the bearing box. If you hear an impact sound, it means that one or more of them may be rolled and broken. The sizzling sound means that the lubricating oil of the bearing is insufficient, and the motor should be changed once every 3,000 to 5,000 hours of operation.
3. The air gap between the stator and rotor of the motor is very small, which is easy to cause collision between the stator and rotor
In medium and small motors, the air gap is generally 0.2mm to 1.5mm. When the air gap is large, the excitation current is required to be large, thereby affecting the power factor of the motor; if the air gap is too small, the rotor may friction or collision. Generally, due to the serious over-tolerance of the bearing and the wear and deformation of the inner hole of the end cover, the different axis of the base, the end cover and the rotor will cause the bore, which can easily cause the motor to heat up or even burn. If the bearing is found to be worn, it should be replaced in time, and the end cover should be replaced or brush-plated. The simpler treatment method is to set the end cover.
4. Almost more than half of the motor burns are caused by the lack of phase operation of the motor
The lack of phase often causes the motor to fail to run or the speed to be slow after starting, or to rotate weakly, the current increases and there is a "buzzing" phenomenon. If the load on the shaft does not change, the motor is in a severe overload state, and the stator current will reach 2 times or more of the rated value. The motor will heat up or even burn out in a short time. The main reasons for the lack of phase operation are as follows: One-phase power failure caused by the failure of other equipment on the power line will cause the other three-phase equipment connected to the line to operate under phase loss.
One phase of the circuit breaker or contactor is missing due to burnout of the bias voltage or poor contact. Phase loss caused by aging, wear and other reasons of the incoming wire of the motor. The one-phase winding of the motor is open, or the one-phase connector in the junction box is loose.
5. The power supply voltage is too high, the excitation current increases, and the motor will overheat
Excessive voltage will endanger the insulation of the motor and cause it to be broken down. When the power supply voltage is too low, the electromagnetic torque will decrease. If the load torque is not reduced and the rotor revolutions are too low, the increase in slip will cause the motor to overload and generate heat. Long-term overload will affect the life of the motor. When the three-phase voltage is asymmetrical, that is, when the voltage of one phase is too high or low, it will cause a certain phase current to be too large, the motor will heat up, and at the same time, the torque will decrease and it will make a "buzzing" sound, which will damage the windings for a long time.
In short, no matter the voltage is too high, too low, or voltage asymmetry, the current will increase, and the motor will generate heat and damage the motor. Therefore, according to the national standard, the change of the motor power supply voltage should not exceed ±5% of the rated value, and the motor output power can maintain the rated value. The motor power supply voltage is not allowed to exceed ±10% of the rated value, and the difference between the three-phase power supply voltage should not exceed ±5% of the rated value.
6. Abnormal vibration or noise of the motor can easily cause the motor to heat up
This situation belongs to the vibration caused by the motor itself, most of which are due to poor rotor dynamic balance, poor bearings, bent shafts, end caps, bases, and rotors with different shaft centers, loose fasteners, or motor installation foundations that are uneven or improperly installed. The cause may also be transmitted from the mechanical end, which should be eliminated according to specific circumstances.
7. The material leaks into the inside of the motor, which reduces the insulation of the motor, thereby reducing the allowable temperature rise of the motor
Solid materials or dust enter the inside of the motor from the junction box, and will reach the air gap between the stator and rotor of the motor, causing the motor to sweep the cavity, until the motor winding insulation is worn out, and the motor is damaged or scrapped. If liquid and gaseous media leak into the motor, it will directly cause the motor insulation to drop and trip. Generally, liquid and gas leakage has the following manifestations:
Leaks in various containers and pipelines, leaks in pump body seals, flushing equipment and the ground;
After the mechanical oil leaks, it enters the motor from the gap of the front bearing box;
The oil seal of the reducer connected to the motor is worn, and the mechanical lubricating oil enters along the motor shaft. After it accumulates in the motor, it dissolves the motor insulating paint, which gradually reduces the motor's insulation performance.
8. Other causes of non-mechanical electrical faults
The temperature increase of the motor caused by other non-mechanical and electrical failure causes may also cause the motor to fail in severe cases. If the ambient temperature is high, the motor lacks a fan, the fan is incomplete, or the fan cover is missing. In this case, it must be forced to cool to ensure ventilation or replace the fan blades, otherwise the normal operation of the motor cannot be guaranteed.
In order to use the correct method to deal with motor faults, it is necessary to be familiar with the characteristics and causes of common motor faults, grasp the key factors, and regularly check and maintain, so as to avoid detours, save time, eliminate faults as soon as possible, and keep the motor in normal The operating status. So as to ensure the normal production of the workshop.
