Reseña del libro "Electrical Motor Controls Handbook for Integrated Systems"
Modern motor control is no longer just about starting and stopping a motor. Today’s systems combine electrical power, drives, PLCs, safety devices, industrial networks, feedback systems, and supervisory software—and understanding how those pieces work together is essential for anyone working in industrial automation. Electrical Motor Controls Handbook for Integrated Systems gives technicians, electricians, engineering students, controls professionals, and maintenance personnel a practical foundation for understanding, designing, commissioning, and troubleshooting modern motor-control systems. Instead of treating motors, drives, PLCs, and automation as separate subjects, this handbook connects them into one complete system. Inside, you’ll learn how to:Understand three-phase motors, DC motors, specialty motors, torque-speed behavior, and motor selection Work with contactors, relays, overloads, pushbuttons, interlocks, starters, and ladder logic Apply soft starters and variable frequency drives, including V/Hz, vector control, braking, harmonics, and fault diagnosis Understand encoders, resolvers, servo systems, stepper motors, and closed-loop control Integrate motors with PLCs, Modbus, EtherNet/IP, Profinet, EtherCAT, and intelligent MCCs Work with SCADA, HMI systems, alarms, historian data, and predictive maintenance Understand arc-flash protection, lockout/tagout, safety relays, safety PLCs, and Safe Torque Off Diagnose electrical, mechanical, communication, and power-quality faults systematically Plan integrated motor-control systems from component selection through commissioning With twenty-nine chapters organized into ten progressive sections, diagrams, practical explanations, chapter summaries, glossary material, and quick-reference appendices, this handbook bridges traditional motor-control theory with today’s connected industrial automation environment.If you work with industrial motors, controls, automation, or maintenance systems, add this integrated reference to your technical library today.
