Thanks to ongoing innovations in technology, electrical engineers' approach to motor protection has changed over the years. The traditional strategy to large AC motor protection (e.g., over 500 hp), ...

The goal of an effective motor overload protection scheme is to protect the motor from damage while allowing it to operate normally up to its thermal limit. Ideally such a scheme would be based on a ...

Build in a thermal safety margin to handle servomotors that heat up more than theoretical models predict when the torque cranks up. • The relationship between intermittent and continuous torque is ...

We all know that motor oil is the lifeblood of the engine, and using the best quality and highest performance oil is a vital part of not only keeping the car on the road longer, but also operating at ...

ST Micro's Markus Ekler explains the technology and derives thermal loss equations that can be used to support design decisions for stepper motor driver circuits. One constant trend in the automotive ...

This white paper discusses the features of a thermal protection device. Thermal events in components can endanger the component and the user. This white paper discusses the features of a thermal ...
