Aegis Bearing Protection Rings SGR-38-UKIT-2A4 Rings
The Aegis Bearing Protection Rings SGR-38-UKIT-2A4 is a specialized shaft grounding ring designed to protect motor bearings from the destructive effects of electrical discharge. Engineered specifically for 38mm shafts, this split ring kit is essential for HVACR systems utilizing Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). VFDs often induce shaft voltages that cause bearing fluting, pitting, and frosting, leading to premature motor failure. By utilizing patented conductive microfibers, the Aegis SGR-38-UKIT-2A4 provides a low-resistance path to ground, effectively diverting harmful currents away from the bearings.
This bearing protection kit is built with a durable aluminum housing and includes universal mounting brackets to ensure compatibility with a wide range of motor frames, including IEC 132M and 132S models. The split design allows for rapid installation without the need to decouple the motor, significantly reducing maintenance downtime. With over 360 degrees of shaft contact, it ensures continuous protection and improved motor reliability throughout its service life.

Key Benefits
- Prevents Bearing Fluting: Neutralizes VFD-induced shaft voltages that cause electrical erosion and noise.
- Split Ring Design: Facilitates easy, non-destructive installation on existing motor shafts without disassembly.
- Universal Compatibility: Includes four styles of mounting brackets to fit various motor end-bell contours.
- High Durability: Features FiberLock™ technology to keep conductive fibers securely in place for long-term performance.
- Internal and External Mounting: Flexible hardware allows for diverse mounting configurations based on space constraints.
Common Questions
Why do I need a shaft grounding ring for my HVAC motor?
When using a VFD, electrical voltage can build up on the motor shaft and discharge through the bearings, causing physical damage known as fluting. This ring safely channels that energy to the ground.
Can I install this 38mm split ring without taking the motor apart?
Yes, the split design is specifically engineered for easy retrofit, allowing you to wrap the ring around the shaft and secure it with the provided brackets without removing the coupling.
Does this kit include all necessary mounting hardware?
Yes, the UKIT-2A4 provides an assortment of universal brackets, screws, and washers to accommodate most standard motor mounting requirements.
