How long is the payback period for 3 phase line monitors?
A – When you consider downtime costs, motor rebuilding and replacement in most installations, a motor failure will cost the operator from $1,000 to $100,000. 60% or more of this figure is downtime and lost productivity costs. The line monitor will pay for itself at least tenfold for each motor failure it prevents. Although the cost for rebuilding or replacement are the most readily recognized costs of motor failure, these costs represent only the smallest portion of the total cost.
