Smart CDR™ provides users with instant feedback on how CDR® (Current Diverter Ring®) is performing with regards to diverting shaft currents away from bearings to ground. By diverting harmful shaft currents to ground, solution help prevent fluting on bearings as well as premature bearing failure in variable frequency drive (VFD)-driven motors. Interface alerts users in real-time if there is not optimal contact between grounding brushes and shaft.
