Predict motor failure weeks in advance!

Improve productivity and your bantam lines

Insulation deterioration is inevitable, but motor failure doesn't have to be. MSE

MotoSafe and FailSafe systems continu- ously monitor insulation for impending failure while the motor is idle.

These field-proven devices will pay for themselves by improving your operating efficiency. In most cases, savings from the first alarm alone will offset the entire cost of the system. • Lower maintenance costs • Improve efficiency • Reduce the expense of stocking spare motors • Reduce expensive downtime • Extend motor life
