Medium Voltage Motor Testing Center — FAQs

Q. What is the Medium Voltage Motor Testing Center, and where is it located?

A. Troy Industrial Solutions (TIS) opened its new Medium Voltage Motor Testing Center at its Watervliet, NY location in 2026. The facility features a brand-new Jenkins Gen3 Motor Test System and is backed by TIS’s experienced electromechanical repair team and 24/7 field service organization. TIS has provided industrial maintenance, repair, and reliability services throughout the Northeast since 1862.

Q. What size and type of motors can you test?

A. The Jenkins Gen3 system provides testing capabilities for:

  • Motors up to 5,000 horsepower
  • AC low-voltage through medium-voltage (up to 7,500 volts)
  • DC motors

This range covers the vast majority of industrial low- and medium-voltage rotating equipment.

Q. What does a motor test include — is it just an electrical check?

A. No. Unlike traditional facilities that focus exclusively on electrical measurements, Troy combines electrical testing, vibration analysis, and thermal monitoring into a single comprehensive diagnostic process. During a single test event, technicians evaluate:

  • Medium- and low-voltage motor performance
  • Electrical integrity and insulation condition
  • Bearing and rotor vibration analysis
  • Winding, bearing, and component temperature monitoring
  • RTD and thermocouple thermal trending

The result is a complete picture of motor health — electrical, mechanical, and thermal.

Q. What types of testing services do you offer?

A. The testing center supports several service types, including:

  • Post-repair validation testing — confirms a repaired or rewound motor is ready for service
  • Pre-installation acceptance testing — validates a new or replacement motor before installation
  • Reliability and condition assessments — evaluates motor health to support predictive maintenance and asset management

Each test produces detailed electronic documentation that supports predictive maintenance strategies, reliability initiatives, warranty requirements, and long-term asset management programs.

Q. Can Troy handle emergency motor testing and breakdowns?

A. Yes. Unexpected motor failures can shut down production lines, utilities, and critical facility operations. Troy’s testing center is supported by the company’s 24/7 field service organization and experienced electromechanical repair team. We offer expedited testing support and emergency response services for both planned maintenance outages and emergency breakdown situations to help customers minimize downtime and return critical equipment to operation as quickly as possible.

Q. Can Troy do more than just test my motor?

A. Yes. Troy is an active member of EASA and provides a complete end-to-end solution from a single trusted partner. Many testing facilities perform testing only. Troy can:

  • Remove equipment from the field
  • Perform repairs and rewinds
  • Provide faster service through in-house machining and parts production
  • Conduct advanced testing and diagnostics
  • Reinstall equipment
  • Perform alignment and startup support
  • Provide predictive maintenance and ongoing reliability services

This comprehensive approach simplifies project management, reduces delays, and provides greater accountability from diagnosis through startup.

Q. What industries and facilities do you serve?

A. The Medium Voltage Motor Testing Center is ideally suited for organizations operating critical rotating equipment, including:

  • Power generation facilities
  • Electric utilities
  • Water and wastewater treatment plants
  • Food and beverage manufacturers
  • Paper and pulp mills
  • Chemical processing facilities
  • Pharmaceutical manufacturers
  • Universities and institutional facilities
  • Mining and aggregate operations
  • Municipal infrastructure facilities
  • General manufacturing plants
  • Commercial and industrial campuses

Q. Do I have to be in New York to use the testing center?

A. No. With locations throughout New York, Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Maine, Troy provides regional support backed by local responsiveness. For Northeast customers this means faster turnaround times, easier equipment logistics, direct access to technical specialists, convenient witness testing opportunities, responsive field service support, and reduced transportation costs.

For businesses outside the Northeast — from Maine to California — our motor repair and testing services are available, including coordinating logistics for trucking.
