First Night: How does today’s process industry engineer even specify a motor with the plethora of industry standards from various standards development organizations around the globe?
This paper provides a basic overview of the issues that are essential in the decision process when purchasing a new motor and is directed toward the engineer who must specify motors but is not a motor specialist. Since project engineers are regularly expected to justify options selected and purchase recommendations, this paper provides guidance. Process industry motor standards are used in review of motor requirements and options available today.
Index Terms – Motor standards, motor specifications, severe duty motor, petrochemical industry motor, motor reliability, premium efficiency, ASD motor, induction motor.
Second Night: IEEE 841-2020 IEEE STANDARD FOR PETROLEUM AND Chemical Industry—Premium Efficiency Severe Duty, Totally
Enclosed (TEFC) Squirrel-Cage Induction Motors — Up to and Including 370 kW 500 hp to be issued in 2020 has been updated and improved from the 2009 version.
The standard covers three-phase premium-efficiency severe-duty TEFC squirrel-cage induction motors with antifriction bearings in sizes up to and including 370 kW (500 hp). Important changes and updates have been made to the standard, including the addition of some
applications for ASD motors in classified locations. Improvements to the standard are reviewed in detail. Requirements are identified that improve motor reliability and increase motor life.
