It has proven its value forpredicting a motor’s reliability and operating cost following repair. The function of a core loss test set is to determine whether a motor has damaged core iron. Damage could include shorts between laminations and electrical arcing. The core loss test is a vital stepin the rewinding of a motor. A core loss test should be performed before the windings are removedto detect any damage tothe core. After the windings are removed, the core should be re- tested to verify that it was not damaged during removal of the old  winding. Although it is possible for a motor to still run with core damage, the efficiency of that motor will be greatly reduced. The motor will consume more power to operate at normal levels and it will cause the motor to generate more heat. Heat will in turn reduce the reliability of the motor and its overall functional life. An increase of 10°C in the winding can reduce thermal insulation life by half. All of these consequences add up to more operating and maintenance cost and loss of pro- ductiontime. PhenixTechnologies manufactures a line of high current  AC supplies with continuously variable output specifically designedfor testing stator, rotors andarmature cores. These units have very low distortion, independent of load and output setting. This ensures test results that are bothaccurate and repeatable.  An optional computer and printer with user-friendly software is available to guide the operator through the test sequence and to assist in determining the condition of the core.  A realistic duty cycle allows you to overexcite and heat the core sufficiently to locate hot spots. The CL-series of core loss testers manufactured by Phenix offers several important technical advantages over those available from any other supplier. The first, andmost critical, is the true sinusoidal waveformoutput producedby the Phenix test sets. Because there is no distortion on the output, regardless of load, the user is assured of the highest possible metering accuracy. Lack of distortion also allows absolute repeatability of test results and use over a full range of motors. From fractional horsepower to the full rating of the test set, accurate testing is assured.  A standard feature of all Phenix CL models is a computer interface that allows a computer to read the meters directly. This eliminates the possibility of any data entry errors. Precision control of the output setting is possible because Phenixprovides 3 to5 ranges peroutput tap. This translates into3 to 5 times greaterregulationof the output voltage setting. ModelCL10-A Model CL25
