Patent number: 9528524Abstract: Systems and methods for preventing water from freezing within a pump system. A pump motor is positioned inside a pump housing. A temperature sensor and a motor controller are positioned inside a motor controller housing. A user interface (UI) controller is positioned in a UI housing. A UI is integrated into the UI housing. The UI controller receives a freeze protection temperature setting through the UI reflecting a difference between an ambient temperature at the location of the motor controller housing and an outdoor temperature and determines a freeze protection temperature threshold based on the setting. The UI controller also receives an adjusted temperature value from the motor controller based on the temperature sensed by the temperature sensor. The UI controller activates the pump motor when the adjusted temperature is below the freeze protection temperature threshold.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2011Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: Regal Beloit America, Inc.Inventor: Yilcan Guzelgunler

Patent number: 8975845Abstract: Systems and methods of detecting a failure of a permanent magnet synchronous motor system. A current of each phase coil of the motor is monitored. A value indicative of the power of the motor is compared to a threshold value indicative of power during a low power detection period. If the value indicative of the power fails to exceed the threshold value indicative of power for the entire low-power detection period, the system indicates a first error condition. The method also monitors the speed of the motor and indicates a second error condition if the speed of the motor remains below a speed threshold for an entire speed failure detection period. A third error condition is indicated if the current of at least one phase of the motor remains below a phase current threshold for an entire loss of phase detection period.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2011Date of Patent: March 10, 2015Assignee: Regal Beloit America, Inc.Inventor: Yilcan Guzelgunler
