INTERIM PART 21 REPORT - VALVE ASSEMBLY MOTOR FAILURE
The following is a summary of information provided by ABB Motors and Mechanical (ABB) via phone and email:
Potential defects were identified in safety-related motors supplied via Flowserve. Flowserve and ABB were informed that during commissioning of a new SBD-3 actuator and valve assembly, the actuator motor failed to operate. A summary of a third-party failure analysis provided by Bruce Power indicated that the likely cause of the failure was attributable to mechanical interference between a rotor balance weight and the stator winding causing insulation damage and turn-to-turn short. To date, the subject motor has not been returned to ABB for inspection.
Affected Plants: Unknown
Component Information:
Component Type: Safety-related AC electric motors for motor-operated valve (MOV) applications.
Motor Serial Number: GG215020118 supplied to Flowserve Corp.- Limitorque Actuation.
Motor Identifier: Flowserve part# R-403-F03-080000A20
Description: 100 ft-lb, 3/60/575, 2-pole motor
