AC electric motors are found in a wide variety of industrial, commercial, and residential applications. Industrial maintenance technicians must develop industry-relevant skills, such as how to operate, install, design, and troubleshoot AC electric motor control circuits for various applications.
DAC Worldwide’s Split-Phase Capacitor Start AC Motor Training System (410-000) features a common split phase, capacitor start AC motor used frequently throughout industry. Each motor module includes a welded aluminum mounting baseplate, aluminum control box support structure, and a steel control enclosure.
All motor wiring is accomplished through banana jack receptacles on the control enclosure’s front panel face. Each unit comes equipped with an appropriate voltmeter and ammeter. In addition, four instructor fault insertion switches are provided on each motor module.
The Split-Phase Capacitor Start AC Motor Training System requires the following items:
Technical training is most effective when learners can gain hands-on practice with industry-standard components they’ll encounter on the job. The Split-Phase Capacitor Start AC Motor Training System features a wide variety of common, industrial-quality components to provide learners with a realistic training experience that will build skills that translate easily to the workplace.
The Split-Phase Capacitor Start AC Motor Training System is a sturdy unit that features industrial-quality components, such as: AC motor mounted on T-slotted rails; master circuit breaker with lock-out/tag-out capability; color-coded banana jack patch cord receptacles; voltmeter; ammeter; enclosure cover safety interlock switch; 4 instructor fault insertion switches; large emergency stop switch; large pilot light; and keyed instructor power switch.
The Split-Phase Capacitor Start AC Motor Training System’s courseware consists of a textbook on motors and motor control, instructor and student wiring diagrams, and a Use/Exercise Guide with hands-on exercises. These can be used as part of either an instructor-led course or self-directed study.
Learners will explore a wide variety of fundamental motor control topics, including: motor control terminology and construction; motor nameplate data; and AC motor troubleshooting. Hands-on exercises include industry-relevant motor control skills, such as wiring and troubleshooting the split phase, capacitor start AC motor.
The Split-Phase Capacitor Start AC Motor Training System can be customized with a variety of options to create a training system that matches a particular industry’s or user’s specific needs. In industry, one size rarely fits all and this trainer can be tailor-made to your exact needs.
