Product catalog summary
Introduction
The SKF EP1000 Dynamic Motor Link is designed to facilitate safe and efficient online motor monitoring by connecting SKF EXP4000 Dynamic Motor Analyzers to motors from outside a motor control cabinet (MCC). This solution addresses safety concerns related to arc flash hazards during dynamic motor testing.

Safety and Convenience
The EP1000 allows motor maintenance personnel to monitor motors without opening the MCC, reducing exposure to potential hazards. The connection is made via an exterior port on the MCC door, enabling the EXP4000’s Surveyor EXP software to automatically load test data.

Specifications
  • Ports: Voltage Input Port (4-pin Wago terminal block), Current Input Port (6-pin Phoenix contact terminal block), Mixed Signal Output Port (DB25).
  • Current Transformers: Primary ratings range from 5 A to 3,000 A, with secondary ratings providing a ±5 V AC peak instantaneous voltage output.
  • EP1000/MCC Cable: 60 inches in length, with DC25 to DB25 panel mount connector.
  • Physical Characteristics: Weight is 0.2 lbs, dimensions are 5.75 x 5.25 x 1.6 inches.

Operational Benefits
The EP1000 ensures reliable and consistent results by eliminating the risk of misconnections with a single connection point. Data acquisition is quick, taking one to four minutes, and does not interrupt motor operation.

Installation and Usage
The EP1000 is permanently installed in the MCC, and a detailed installation manual is available. It supports connections to motors with voltages up to 1,000 V and can test higher-voltage motors via MCC PTs and CTs.

Conclusion
The SKF EP1000 Dynamic Motor Link offers a safe, efficient, and reliable solution for online motor monitoring, minimizing the risks associated with traditional methods.

SKF Dynamic Motor Link EP1000-1

SKF Dynamic Motor Link EP1000 Safely and quickly connect SKF EXP4000 Dynamic Motor Analyers to motors – from the outside of a motor control cabinet Safety is a critical consideration among motor maintenance professionals going about their routine jobs. The potential for arc flash hazards makes dynamic (online) motor testing in a motor control cabinet (MCC) dangerous, if not prohibitive. The personal protection equipment required to safely enter these flash zones is cumbersome, making the task of motor monitoring difficult. The SKF EP1000 dynamic motor link was designed to enable convienient monitoring of motors and the machine systems they are part of. Combined with the EP1000’s safety benefits, it is the ideal solution for safe, effective online motor monitoring. Once permanently installed in an MCC, the EP1000 does not require motor maintenance personnel to open the cabinet again for monitoring purposes. A user simply attaches a cable from the SKF Dynamic Motor Analyzer – EXP4000 to the permanently-installed exterior port on the MCC door. Once attached, the connection allows the EXP4000’s Surveyor EXP software to automatically load the test and data for the motor being monitored from the database. A user can easily perform the necessary measurements, then disconnect the EXP4000 and leave the zone with minimal exposure to the dangers that lie within an MCC. Peak voltage during operation is 5 V or less, and the accessory is passive (un-powered) when the EXP4000 is not attached. The EP1000 can be directly connected to motors at voltages of up to 1000 V. It can also test higher-voltage motors via MCC PTs and CTs . EXP4000 users obtain reliable, consistent results with the EP1000. Since there is only a single connection, the risk of any misconnections is eliminated. A user can gather electrical data without interruption of the motor operation. Typical data acquisition time is one to four minutes. This makes monitoring of critical equipment quick, reliable, safe and easy. The SKF Dynamic Motor Analyzer - EXP4000 connects easily and safely to an MCC via the EP1000 port mounted on the cabinet door An EP1000 mounted inside a motor control cabinet with prope
