Integrated motor monitoring system
First Claim
1. An integrated motor monitoring system, comprising:
- a housing;
a motor disposed within the housing and configured to provide a power output;
at least one monitoring device communicatively coupled to the motor and configured to;
monitor an operational aspect of the motor; and
generate a data signal associated with the operational aspect; and
a controller, disposed within the housing and in communication with the at least one monitoring device, and configured to;
energize a plurality of field conductors of the motor; and
receive the data signal from the at least one monitoring device over at least one of the plurality of field conductors.

Abstract
An integrated motor monitoring system includes a housing and a motor disposed within the housing, the motor being configured to provide a power output. The integrated motor monitoring system also includes at least one monitoring device communicatively coupled to the motor and configured to monitor an operational aspect of the motor and generate a data signal associated with the operational aspect. The integrated motor monitoring system further includes a controller, disposed within the housing and in communication with the at least one monitoring device, and configured to energize a plurality of field conductors of the motor and receive the data signal from the at least one monitoring device over at least one of the plurality of field conductors.
