Stabilirea criteriilor de selectie si alegerea motorului

Exista cativa factori de care trebuie tinut cont in momentul in care se alege un motor
electric. Dintre acestia principalii sunt tensiunea, puterea si viteza la care va functiona pentru a
actiona angrenaje diverse. Criterii pentru alegerea unui motor electric potrivit sunt de asemenea
mediul in care acesta va functiona dar si randamentul pe care trebuie sa il ofere.
In unele cazuri sunt potrivite motoarele monofazate, iar pentru alte situatii devin necesare
motoare trifazate. Acesta ar fi primul aspect de avut in vedere. Necesarul de putere al motorului
electric reprezinta un alt criteriu dupa care se va face selectia. Puterea motorului trebuie sa fie
egala sau apropiata cu cea necesara pentru functionarea optima a utilajului pe care il va alimenta.
Alegerea de motoare electrice de mare putere poate insemna un consum de energie inutil, daca
sunt folosite pentru o singura aplicatie. In mod similar, motoarele electrice de capacitate redusa
vor fi suprasolicitate si vor genera de asemenea cheltuieli ridicate, daca aplicatiile pentru care
sunt folosite necesita o putere mai mare.
Viteza de rotatie, momentul si cuplul motorului electric sunt alti factori determinanti in
alegerea celei mai potrivite solutii. Este necesara astfel cunoasterea regimului de lucru pe care il
va avea motorul electric. Solutii exista indiferent de situatie, fie ca e vorba de motoare electrice
standard, fabricate in masa, fie ca este vorba de motoare electrice personalizate, realizate in serii
scurte.
Accesorizarea si personalizarea motoarelor electrice este posibila prin intermediul
reductoarelor sau variatoarelor de turatie. Acestea optimizeaza numarul de rotatii per minut,
ofera cuplul dorit si asigura functionarea motoarelor electrice in conformitate cu parametrii
doriti.
Alaturi de toate categoriile de motoare electrice si accesoriile disponibile pentru acestea
se mai gaseste un factor important in alegere: existenta serviciilor de intretinere si reparatii.
Firmele specializate care produc si comercializeaza motoare electrice ofera de obicei consultanta,
asistenta post vanzare si reparatii in eventualitatea in care aceste echipamente industriale se
defecteaza. Poate sa para o misiune destul de dificila, insa tinand cont de toate criteriile
enumerate se va putea alege cea mai buna optiune din gama variata de solutii in materie de
motoare electrice.
