What Are AEGIS Shaft Grounding Rings?
AEGIS Shaft Grounding Rings are advanced motor protection devices designed to prevent bearing damage caused by electrical discharges. Stray electrical currents, especially those generated by VFDs, can lead to pitting, frosting, and fluting in motor bearings. These conditions significantly reduce motor lifespan and lead to costly repairs and downtime. AEGIS Rings provide a reliable solution by safely diverting these harmful currents away from the bearings, ensuring smooth and long-lasting motor operation.
Why Choose AEGIS Shaft Grounding Rings?
- Proven Reliability: Manufactured in Maine, USA, by Electro Static Technology (EST), a company with decades of experience in electrostatics, AEGIS Rings have been the industry standard for motor protection since their introduction in 2005. These rings are trusted by professionals across various industries for their consistent performance and durability.
- Prevent Costly Downtime: Motor failures due to bearing damage can lead to significant operational downtime and high repair costs. AEGIS Grounding Rings minimize these risks by protecting your motors from electrical discharges, allowing for uninterrupted operation and reduced maintenance expenses.
- Easy Sizing and Installation: Selecting the right AEGIS Ring is straightforward. Simply measure your motor's shaft diameter to determine the appropriate size, ensuring a secure connection between the shaft and the ring's microfibers.
