The Commtest Profiler measures and records Commutator Surface Measurement, DC Current and Temperature.
To keep motors and generators operating at peak efficiency and to maximize their useful life, it is vital to maintain commutators and slip rings in a perfectly round and smooth condition. Particularly with commutators, it is bar-to-bar height variations of adjacent bars rather than simply out of roghness that can cause a significant loss of output efficiency, increase power consumption, cause premature wear and damage of brushes and even lead to serious breakdown problems.
In addition to accurately measuring and recording surface conditions on commutators and slip rings, the Profiler can also be used to easily measure and record DC Current and Temperature by using readily available industry-standard accessories. This measurement flexibility further increases your ability to detect problems before becoming serious and costly. The Profiler will prove invaluable in documenting your quality assurance procedures and will help to cut maintenance costs by reducing unscheduled and unnecessary down time.
