Electro Static's Split-Ring AEGIS Bearing Protection Ring

Tosimplify the protection of bearings in VFD-drivenmotors, Electro Static Technology has introduced the Split-Ring AEGIS(TM)Bearing Protection Ring with Conductive Epoxy Mounting. Developed for fast,easy field installation without detaching coupled equipment, the new Split-Ringkit offers long-term protection of ac motor bearings from electrical damage, safelychanneling VFD-induced bearing currentsto ground. The unit has a 360-degree circumferential inner ring of conductivemicrofibers permanently secured in place by the patented AEGISFiberLock^(TM) channel. The FiberLock channel design not only preventsthe microfiber brushes from loosening or falling out, but also protects themfrom breakage.

Unlikeconventional shaft grounding brushes, the ring is maintenance-free and lastsfor the life of the motor. It works with virtually no friction or wear,regardless of motor rpm, and is unaffected by dirt, grease or othercontaminants.
