Put an End to Costly, Disruptive Medium Voltage Drive Failures
Medium voltage drives fail at inopportune times, resulting in emergency service calls, extended downtime, and lost productivity and revenue
The typical Medium Voltage VFD service call costs between $7,000 – $75,000! This, however, pales in comparison to the costs associated with lost production, which can be hundreds of thousands per hour. If DriveScan could save you just 1 hour of downtime per year, wouldn’t it be worth it?
Challenges You Face with Medium Voltage Drive Monitoring
Reliability Engineers and others in your organization rightly question whether more could be done to prevent and mitigate surprise failures and their consequences
Until now, little could be done about this problem. DriveScan offers the solution.
Traditional Drive Monitoring
Reacts to failures AFTER they’ve occurred
- Relies on a medium voltage VFD expert’s onsite diagnosis to interpret cause based on their experience and after-the-fact information
- Doesn’t provide comprehensive drive or power diagnostics
- Doesn’t trend or document VFD data for predictive and preventative maintenance
- Doesn’t capture event signatures to accelerate root cause analysis
Traditional Preventative Maintenance Shortcomings
- Preventative maintenance is an annual snapshot, not a real-time oversight solution
- Doesn’t detect transient or evolving faults
- Results in premature parts replacement
Revolutionary Remote Medium Voltage Drive Monitoring Is The Solution For These Challenges
Continuous, in-depth monitoring and asset management overcomes the limitations of onsite, after-the-fact analysis
- Remotely detect intermittent and evolving issues under load
- Asset managers can oversee their entire VFD group in real-time
- Accelerates root-cause analysis and recovery
- Reduces preventative maintenance frequency and cost
- Trends and alerts to maximize uptime
- Optimizes parts replacement timing
