Defining the Main Parameters and Performances of the Elevator Motor

Abstract

Contemporary tendencies relentlessly dictate the conditions for the appearance of a more qualitative, reliable and comfortable elevator chain for the rolling stock of a vertical motion. At the same time, the issues of energy saving and cost-effective use of resources gain currency against the background of rising prices for energy carriers and market prices for various elements that play an essential role in the availability of many electromechanical systems. Unfortunately, attention was paid to the availability of above problems in the elevator sector when the majority of the elevators (about 60% of them) outlived their technical service life that ensured the reliable operation. As a matter of fact, an amazingly important issue is relating to the embedment of reliable, durable and economically substantiated components of electromechanical systems into contemporary Ukrainian elevators. The purpose of the research done was to define the main parameters and performances of the asynchronous elevator motor of an ADB180M6 type. The motor is powered from the industrial network of 50 Hz and the frequency converter with the frequency of 50Hz and 16.6 Hz. This scientific paper uses the methods of physical investigations. The elevator motor test data satisfy the reliability parameters that make any elevator user feel comfortable. The main measurement data obtained for the engine No43886 of an ADB180M6 type powered from the frequency converter “Altivar” of 22kW with the motor speed of 910 rpm and 289 rpm satisfy the requirements of the regulatory documentation. The noise level is within satisfactory margins.
