Outdoor Motors Accelerated Life Test Chamber Moataz Elheddeny / TCS

Executive Summary

Reliability makes it HARDER to stop a TRANEReliability makes it HARDER to stop a TRANE

Business Y: Improving reliability.

CTQ:

• TBD

Problem Statement: Outdoor motors are used in tough environments (e.g. high temperature, humidity, sand, rain, etc.).

To calculate the OD motors reliability, a life test, that includes all/most of these stresses, must be performed prior to using the motors in our units.

Currently, there are no available ALT chambers at Trane to perform these types of tests.

Product/Process:

• TBD

Results :

• A complete design for an Outdoor Motor Accelerated life Test Chamber.

Business Impact / Customer Impact:

• Improve customer satisfaction.

• Increase sales.

• Ability to evaluate new suppliers.

• Optimum warranty periods.

Vital X’s Identified:

• TBD

Benefits:

• Ability to perform life tests on motors.

• Improve motor reliability.

• Improve unit reliability

Next Steps:

• Kick off meeting with the team.

• Continue working on VOC/VOE.

• Benchmarking.
