Provides Tools for Plant Maintenance and Reliability Professionals

EASA announces a new addition to its website, the Electromechanical Resource Center (at easa.com/erc). Plant maintenance and reliability professionals can easily access a range of technical resources relating to the operation and maintenance of electric motors and other electromechanical equipment.

“EASA is the premier international association that supports the electromechanical repair, service, and sales industry by providing vital technical and business information and training,” said Linda Raynes, CAE, EASA President and CEO. “Our new Electromechanical Resource Center aims to support maintenance professionals in improving the reliability and energy efficiency of their electromechanical equipment. We are dedicated to making this platform the recognized destination for these topics and for better connecting our members to their customers.”

Technical information available includes the industry-standard, ANSI/EASA Standard AR100-2020: Recommended Practice for the Repair of Rotating Electrical Apparatus, and a related guide for incorporating these recommended practices into a plant’s motor repair practices and policies. Maintenance professionals will find technical datasheets addressing key topics such as vibration, alignment, start-up procedures, and methods for determining motor/system baselines, as well as an archive of EASA-authored articles that have appeared in various trade publications. Visitors can also review a global directory of EASA-member service providers. EASA will continue to add content and resources to this dynamic portal.

Recognized internationally as the leader in the electromechanical sales, service, and repair industry, EASA provides an ongoing flow of industry information and education that helps its 1,700 members worldwide enhance their performance and achieve greater levels of success on behalf of their customers.
