Industrial Maintenance and Reliability
Prevent unplanned downtime and control operating expenses.
Motor and generator failure can happen at any time. The iTIG helps industrial maintenance professionals make intelligent, data-driven decisions about motor and generator assets in use. Find cases of weak insulation before it’s too late.
The iTIG is used by preventive maintenance program managers and reliability professionals in these industries:
- Wind Energy
- Oil & Gas
- Mining
- Pulp & Paper
- Manufacturing
- Utilities
- Defense
- More
Find More Faults
The iTIG instrument allows you to perform more than twenty low-voltage to high-voltage tests and measurements quickly and easily.
Low-voltage measurements find imminent maintenance concerns and help diagnose motors with known or suspected problems. Medium-voltage and high-voltage tests (megohm/IR, hipot, surge, and partial discharge (PD)) will uncover weaknesses while the asset continues in operation, providing data and insight to allow service, repair, or replacement to happen during scheduled downtime. Trending results over time will provide additional insight into developing weaknesses, giving asset managers even more time to make informed decisions.

- Automatic IR and hipot tests are included with models C and D.
Motor Maintenance and Reliability Programs Made Easy
If you are like many of our customers, minimizing unplanned downtime through maintenance programs and motor reliability programs is a top priority. These programs are never easy, but we can help you make them easier.
Read Electrom’s article on static motor testing, Offline Motor Testing Finds Insulation Weaknesses Earlier, which appeared in the September 2020 issue of Pumps & Systems magazine.
Electrom has a state-of-the-art family of portable offline motor testers for large and small motors and generators. Automated testing with the push of a button makes motor testing easy and available for personnel who are not experts and do not use a motor tester regularly.
The iTIG winding analyzer will take the guess work out of your maintenance processes when it comes to the testing of insulation systems. It provides a simple all-in-one solution that can be used by anyone with only minimal training on motor testing in the plant or shop.
Tracking of test data over time, including partial discharge (PD), for each motor and generator can be done automatically by the tester. The results can be viewed in Microsoft Excel or with database software for trend analysis purposes.
There are many methods to collect PD data. Some methods are more complicated than others. Many tests require large, heavy equipment, so bringing this test equipment to the motor can be a challenge, or is sometimes impossible. Additionally, expert knowledge and analysis requires more dedicated resources or external contractors.
The Electrom iTIG’s lightweight and portable offline PD testing provides a simple and reliable method for PD testing during planned outages. Automation with an easy-to-use interface means tests can be conducted by anyone with minimal training or expertise. During offline testing, test voltages can be used that are higher than the peak voltages possible during online monitoring and testing. Being able to test at higher voltages provides earlier warnings of issues and insulation breakdown, giving asset owners more time to plan ahead.
PD detection capability is available with the iTIG B, C, and D models. Contact us to learn more.
