In aspects, the present invention discloses a method of detecting a rotor fault in an electric machine using a data analysis unit. The method comprises measuring magnetic field strength along a first axis and a second axis, determining operating slip frequency of the electric machine using the measured magnetic field strength along the first axis and the second axis, determining an amplitude of the determined operating slip frequency in a first frequency spectrum and an amplitude of operating slip frequency in a second frequency spectrum, and detecting the rotor fault by comparing the amplitude of the determined operating slip frequency in the first frequency spectrum and the amplitude of operating slip frequency in the second frequency spectrum against a predetermined threshold.

Method and system for detecting rotor fault using triaxial magnetic field sensor

It is proposed a system for condition monitoring electric machine and the method thereof. The system includes a portable unit, being adapted for free movement around said electric machine; a magnetic field sensor, being adapted for measuring magnetic field intensity at at least one of a plurality points of a path of said free movement; a processing unit, being adapted for receiving at least one corresponding magnetic field intensity signal from said magnetic field sensor, comparing at least one magnetic field intensity value to at least one corresponding expected value, and determining, based on the comparison, if a fault is present in the electric machine; wherein: said magnetic field sensor and said processing unit are integrated into said portable unit. And the method includes steps of moving said portable unit to at least one point of a plurality points of a path of said free movement around said electric machine; measuring at least one magnetic field intensity at said at least one of a plurality points of a path of said free movement; and comparing at least one magnetic field intensity value to at least one corresponding expected value, and determining, based on the comparison, if a fault is present in the electric machine.
