Motor manufacturers interested in
taking a closer look at Raser’s
advanced motor technology can
apply
for a test demonstration program.
The Symetron™ Test Demonstration
Program allows additional disclosure
of Raser’s proprietary technology
under confidential non-disclosure
agreements and additional thorough
testing of the technology installed
in specific applications.
The test demonstration program has
four main phases.
-
Paper Test
-
Installation
-
Dynamometer Test
-
Analysis & Review
After each phase of the test
program, an analysis is conducted to
qualify advancement in the program.
Phase 1: Paper Test
In the first phase or “paper test” a
manufacturer submits current
specifications of a selected motor
and their performance objectives. Raser’s engineers then match these
specifications and objectives with
the strengths of the Raser’s
technology and determine if there is
a good “fit.” Raser would provide an
initial analysis and determine if
there are sufficient benefits
predicted to justify advancing to
the next test phase. If so, a report
containing projected predictions
based on motor specifications and
test objectives would be developed
for the manufacturer. Should these
predictions justify further
consideration, advancement to the
next step would be recommended.
Phase 2: Installation
Phase 2 is the physical Installation
of Symetron™ Technology into the
manufacturer’s selected drive
systems. This
can happen via modification of an
existing motor or fabrication of a
demonstration motor and controller. The
manufacturer would provide test
motors and adequate documentation to
facilitate installation.
Phase 3. Dynamometer Testing
In phase three, the Symetron™
enhanced motor and controller would then be sent to
an independent accredited testing
lab and/or the manufacturers own
testing facility. All tests will
require Non disclosure agreements.
Prior to testing, Raser Technologies
and the manufacturer would jointly
develop a test protocol based on
Raser’s recommendations and the
manufacturers performance
objectives. Results of the test will
be available to the manufacturer for
review.
Phase 4. Analysis & Review
A written analysis and
recommendation will be provided by
Raser’s engineers to accompany the
test results and will be delivered
to the manufacturer.
At this point the manufacturer has
the option to conduct their own
field-testing by installing the test
motor into working applications.
Please note. The manufacturer also
has the option of moving to
licensing at any time during the
test demonstration program.
Several manufacturers are currently
involved at various levels of the
test demonstration currently.
