Aegis Bearing Protection Rings SGR-2.375-UKIT-1A4 Rings
The Aegis SGR-2.375-UKIT-1A4 Bearing Protection Ring is a high-performance shaft grounding ring designed to safeguard industrial and HVACR motors from the destructive effects of electrical discharge machining (EDM). Engineered for 2.375-inch shafts, this split grounding ring is compatible with NEMA 364T and 365T frame motors, as well as larger 444TS through 449TS configurations. By utilizing proprietary conductive microfiber technology, the SGR-2.375-UKIT-1A4 provides a consistent, low-impedance path to ground, effectively diverting harmful VFD-induced shaft voltages. This prevents bearing fluting and pitting, which are common causes of premature motor failure in systems driven by variable frequency drives. The split-ring design is specifically optimized for maintenance and retrofit applications, allowing for fast motor grounding installation without the need for uncoupling equipment or removing the shaft. Each uKIT includes universal mounting brackets and necessary hardware, ensuring a secure and maintenance-free fit on almost any motor end bracket.
Key Benefits
- Eliminates Bearing Fluting: Protects internal components by channeling stray currents safely to ground, preventing electrical pitting and frosting.
- Retrofit-Friendly Design: The split ring configuration enables installation without disassembling the motor or removing couplings, minimizing operational downtime.
- Broad Compatibility: Fits a wide range of NEMA and IEC frames, making it an ideal HVAC motor protection solution for fans, pumps, and compressors.
- Long-Term Reliability: Features 360-degree circumferential contact with the shaft, offering durable performance even in high-speed applications.
- Universal Mounting Kit: Includes four styles of mounting brackets and conductive hardware to accommodate various motor end-bell geometries.
Common Questions
How do I know if I need an Aegis SGR-2.375-UKIT-1A4 for my motor?
If your motor is controlled by a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), it is susceptible to shaft voltage buildup. If you have a 364T or 365T frame motor with a 2.375" shaft, this ring provides essential protection against electrical bearing damage.
Can this grounding ring be used for both AC and DC motors?
Yes, Aegis SGR rings are highly effective at protecting AC motors up to 500HP and DC motors up to 300HP from discharge currents that cause premature bearing failure.
Does the split design affect the grounding performance?
No, the split-ring architecture is strictly for ease of installation. Once secured with the bracket kit, it provides the same 360-degree conductive path as a solid ring.
