2017 EASA Convention: The success continues!

Record number of exhibitors, more service centers represented in Tampa
Those who went to Tampa in late
June in search of valuable education,
an impressive exhibit hall, exceptional
networking and results of a major in-
dustry research project found just what
they were looking for – and more – at
the 2017 EASA Convention.
Attendees from around the world
found extensive opportunities to help
them “Partner for Progress” (the con-
vention theme) and to become more
successful in their businesses.
From the early bird sessions, to the
kickoff lunch, exhibit hall, education
sessions, service center tour and social
events, those attending had the oppor-
tunity to gather many great ideas to take
back and put to work.

the rotor, the center of gravity (CG),
by 1/8 inch:
A similar metric example would be
a 50 kg disc rotor with 1 meter diam-
eter, and 10 g unbalance weight at the
OD, resulting in 5000 g-mm unbalance,
and an equivalent 1 mm displacement
of the CD from the shaft axis.
If the rotor was spinning in free
space, the rotor would revolve around
its CG. Thus the rotor shaft axis would
prescribe a circle with a radius of 1/8
inch. (1 mm for the metric example.)
The rotating speed would then de-
termine how fast the shaft axis was
moving around that prescribed circle
(the velocity). Since the bearing sup-
port is applied to the shaft axis, the
force applied to the bearings increases
relative to that velocity.
The above discussion presents the
fundamental theory of unbalance on
which the Balance Quality Grades
are based. Any rotors balanced to the
same Balance Quality Grade will exert
similar forces on the bearings regard-
less of the rotor weight or operating
speed. Thus G2.5 can be applied to
motor rotors in general even though
rotor weight and operating speed vary
extensively. This fundamental theory
of balancing is unchanged between ISO
1940-1 and ISO 21940-11.
Two possible approaches
The major change that was imple-
mented with 21940-11 is where the
balance tolerances are to be evaluated
for two plane balancing. In the original
ISO 1940-1 Standard, the tolerances
were applied to the correction planes.
Thus trial weights, sometimes referred
to as calibration weights, placed in
ISO 21940-11:
As explained in 4.4 and 8.1, it is recom-
mended that the tolerance planes (often
identical to the bearing planes) and not
the correction planes be used to state
unbalance tolerances.

In 21940-11 the tolerances are to be spec if y spec ial p roc e-

a 3600 rpm rotor, balancing to ½ mils
pk-pk (12 micrometers) meets the G2.5
Balance Quality Grade, and propor-
tionally for any rotor speed. The rotor
weight is factored out in the conversion
and is not a concern. The fact is, balanc-
ing most rotors to under 1 mils pk‑pk,
and 2-pole rotors to under ½ mils pk‑pk,
has been a common practice in service
centers. So the practical implications
of the change from ISO 1940-1 to ISO
21940-11 are very evident.
A further impact, perhaps hid-
den in the above discussion, is that
displacement data from a soft bearing
balancing machine can be converted to

by application of a simple formula:
Displacement (mils pkpk) × Operational
rpm / 752 = Balance Quality Grade (Gx.x)
Displacement (mm pkpk) × Operational
rpm / 19101 = Balance Quality Grade (Gx.x)
Balance an 1800 rpm rotor to 1 mil
pk-pk and you get G2.39, just a little
under G2.5. Balance a 3600 rpm rotor
to ½ mil pk-pk and you get the same
result, G2.39. There is some concern
when a small rotor is balanced in a

Tech Tips
Burnout oven calibration
Burnout oven temperature is often
taken for granted. The reality is that
oven calibration is important. Here are
some tips to improve yours:
• If possible, the thermal probe,
commonly found near the top
of one side of the burnout oven,
should be replaced with a flexible
probe that can be placed directly
on the backiron of the stator
being processed. Note: The EASA
Accreditation Program requires

in a 5000 pound (2268 kg) capacity
machine. The roller assemblies intro-
duce parasitic mass that reduces the
unbalance response. So light weight
roller assemblies and balancing to well
under the tolerance is recommended
for these conditions.
Service centers that prefer the tradi-
tional formula to calculate Allowable
Residual Unbalance at the correction
planes (Uper per ISO 1940-1) can do so
with confidence for symmetrical rotors
with correction planes inboard of the
bearings. Since the change in tolerance
planes only affects couple residual
unbalance, and the bearing planes will
be more sensitive to couple unbalance,
meeting the tolerance at the correction
planes ensures the tolerance is met
at the bearing planes. For nonsym-
metrical rotors or rotors with correction
planes outboard of the bearings, the
ISO 1940 method will get close, but
meeting tolerance is not assured.
The ISO standards specify special
procedures for allocating Uper to cor-
rection planes for nonsymmetrical
rotors and special rotor configurations.
Service centers should have a copy of
the applicable standard and familiarize
themselves with those procedures. l
temperature during the burnout
oven process.
• Ceramic shops offer pyramid-
shaped sacrificial test pieces that
melt at various specific tem-
peratures. Place several of these
around your oven cart to identify
both “cold” and “hot” spots.
• Large fabricated frames should
be evenly supported in the burn-
out oven, to avoid potentially
warping the frame. l

NEMA air-over motor efficiency test update

In March 2017, the National Electri-
cal Manufacturers Association (NEMA)
added a new part to the MG1 motor
and generator standards. The title of
Part 34 is “Air-Over Motor Efficiency
Method.” Air-over motors operate in
and are cooled by the airstream of a fan
or blower. The procedures in Part 34
replace the temperature test portion of
the applicable efficiency test methods,
namely IEEE 112, IEEE 114, CSA C390,
CSA C747, and IEC 60034-2-1. These
procedures (there are 3 in Part 34) were
necessary because the air-over motor
requires a special procedure to reach
an appropriate temperature for an
accurate efficiency measurement. l

Add EASA’s Safety Module #2 to your training library

By Jimmie Williams, Jr. “Module #2 Resources”

Bradleys’, Inc.
Gregory, Texas
Management Services
Committee Member
Editor’s Note: This is the second
article in a series focusing on EASA’s
16-part “Safety Module Program.”
Each article will highlight documents,
forms and other resources available in
the month’s featured module.
l l l l l
I can’t emphasize enough the need
for all members to take advantage
of EASA’s 16-part “Safety Module
Program.” I must give a huge “shout
out” to Tom Barnes, a member of the
Management Services Committee,
for all of the hard work he put into
developing this extremely valuable
program. All 16 modules, available in
the “Resources” area of easa.com, are
FREE to members.
Module #2 – Electrical Safety
This month’s article focuses on
Module #2 – Electrical Safety. Electri-
cal safety is one of those areas we too
often take for granted in our industry.
In many instances, we forget the poten-
tial seriousness of an electrical accident
until it’s too late. Luckily, most of us
are fortunate that electrical accidents
are few and far between.
In some service centers, 480 volts
is “high voltage,” but others test mo-
02
tors up to 13 kV. Electrical testing in
those facilities can reach 50,000 volts
DC. Module #2 focuses on general
electrical safety, much of which can be
utilized day-to-day in service centers
everywhere.
The Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) in
the U.S. recommends that certain
guidelines be adhered to regarding
these hazards.
The module includes a written pro-
gram, safety definitions, work permit
examples and other helpful documents
to download in order to complete your
electrical safety program. The module
goes hand-in-hand with Module #1 –
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
and Module #4 – Lockout/Tagout.
Module #2 explains how to go
about evaluating and identifying
energy sources where work is per-
formed and how to evaluate the
associated potential hazards as well as
communicating information concern-
ing these hazards. The module also
explains how to establish appropriate
procedures and protective measures
for employees.
See the box on this page which lists
“Module #2 Resources” that are avail-
able for members to download – FREE.
• Electrical Safety Written Program
• Electrical Safety Definitions
• Electrical Safety Training
Certificate
• Energized Work Permit Sample
• Helpful OSHA Links
• Electrical Safety in the Workplace
– UAW
• OSHA Publication 3075 –
Controlling Electrical Hazards
Add webinars to your library
We also recommend that you re-
view the recorded management and
employee webinars for Module #2
and add them to your training library.
They provide additional information to
use along with the printed resources.
The cost is $109 for members and $249
for nonmembers for a downloadable
version. A CD-ROM version is $129 for
members and $269 for nonmembers.
It contains both the management and
employee webinars. To purchase, go to
the “Shop” area of EASA’s website at
www.easa.com and search for Safety
Module Program.
Building your own safety program
provides a great return on your invest-
ment. Please take advantage of these
valuable resources. l

 Root Cause Failure Analysis
Valuable Resource Manual Available In Printed and CD-ROM Versions
The instructional/resource manual used in EASA’s highly-acclaimed “Root Cause Failure
Analysis” seminar is available for purchase in printed and CD-ROM versions.
Every EASA service center should have a copy available for quick reference.
Others who will want a copy include anyone interested in understanding motor failures
and those who want to serve customers by addressing the cause of failure rather than the
symptom. For example, a bearing failure is not the root cause; it is simply the component that
failed. The root cause may be contamination, vibration, lack of lubrication, etc.
The publication was developed to help electric motor technicians and engineers pre-
vent repeated failures by determining the root cause of the problem.
With more than 270 pages, the book provides extensive information, including photos
of a wide range of failures, the likely causes listed, and a clear methodology for confirm-
ing the probable cause of each failure.
Note: The printed manual is in black-and-white, while the CD version shows most
of the failure photos in color. If you must choose between one or the other, we encourage
you to purchase the CD and then print pages as necessary.
