What pricing depends on

PERS uses this information to work out a quote. It is not a list of charges.

Your equipment’s specifications

Motors with the same HP or kW rating can cost different amounts to rewind. Speed and winding design affect the materials and work required.

  • Power (HP or kW). Horsepower and kilowatts are two units for the same thing: the motor’s rated power. Give either one. They are not separate charges.
  • Speed (RPM). How fast the motor is designed to turn, in revolutions per minute. It depends on how the motor is wound.
  • The rest of the nameplate. Voltage, phase, frame size and other details.
Learn more: why speed matters

A motor’s rated speed is set by how its windings are arranged (the number of poles) and by the frequency of the power supply. At the same power, a slower motor has to turn with more force (torque), so it is often built larger. In one manufacturer’s range of large motors, for example, the slower 6-pole versions were usually heavier than faster versions of the same power. This is a tendency, not a rule: some slower motors use the same frame size as faster ones.

Running a motor slowly with a variable-speed drive does not change its winding. For a rewind, what counts is how the motor itself was designed, as shown on its nameplate.

So the price does not simply rise or fall with power or speed. Each quote is based on the actual equipment and the work it needs.

The work required

What the equipment needs is decided after it has been checked. The price then depends on that work, any replacement parts, machining if needed, and any pickup and delivery.

Some submersible pump repairs also require seals, the specified oil, and checks for water entry. These can add to the repair cost.

Possible items on a quote

A quote lists only the items your job needs.

Repair or rewinding work

The work your equipment needs, found when it is checked. For example, a full rewind or a smaller repair.

Replacement parts

Bearings, seals or other parts, if they need replacing. Their cost depends on the exact size, type, specification and number needed. Bearings and seals are matched to the parts already fitted or to the maker’s data, not worked out from horsepower.

Machine-shop work, where needed

Some faults need machining as well as electrical work, for example on a shaft, a bearing seat or a housing. If machining is needed, it is priced by the work involved, and how it will be done is discussed with you as part of the quote.

Pickup, delivery and mobilization

If you ask PERS to collect or return your equipment, the transport and the people needed to do it (mobilization) can be part of the quote.

Pickup and delivery

PERS offers pickup and delivery by arrangement. Contact us to discuss your location, equipment, access requirements, and preferred schedule.

Mobilization means the transport and personnel arrangements for picking up or returning your equipment. What it involves depends on where the equipment is, how big and heavy it is, and how it can be reached. PERS works this out with you when preparing the quote.

To arrange it

Include the pickup and delivery details in your enquiry: pickup, delivery, both, or not required; pickup and return-delivery locations; approximate dimensions and weight; access restrictions; loading or lifting assistance needed; preferred schedule. They are part of the checklist below.

Common questions

Short answers. Every one is based on details confirmed by PERS.

Can I visit the shop?

Yes. Please call before visiting. You can also ask about pickup and delivery.

Where is the workshop?

112 Burol St., Molino 1, Bacoor City, Cavite. See the map and directions.

Do you repair my kind of motor?

PERS repairs all kinds of industrial electric motors. The shop also rewinds generators and transformers and repairs car electrical systems. If you are not sure, send a photo of the nameplate.

Can you collect my equipment?

Yes. PERS offers pickup and delivery by arrangement. Tell the shop where the equipment is, roughly how big and heavy it is, and when suits you. The transport and people needed (mobilization) can be part of the quote.

How much will the repair cost?

It depends on the equipment’s specifications and the work it needs, which is decided after it has been checked. See what affects the price.

What should I send to get a quote?

A photo of the nameplate, what the equipment is, what is going wrong, and whether you need pickup.See the full checklist.

Do I need to take the equipment apart first?

No, please don’t. A nameplate photo and a description are enough to start, and opening equipment can be unsafe.

How do I contact PERS?

Call +63 907 206 5092 (mobile) or (046) 477 3171 (landline), email proficient.ears@gmail.com. You can also find PERS on Facebook.

What to send for a quote

Please don’t take equipment apart just to get a quote. A nameplate photo and a description are enough to start. Opening equipment can be unsafe.

About the equipment

  • Equipment. What it is (motor, generator, pump, fan, transformer, vehicle part) and what it drives.
  • Nameplate details. Power (HP or kW), speed (RPM), voltage and phase. The nameplate is the plate or label on the machine that lists its ratings. You can also attach a photo of it in your email app.
  • What is happening. The symptoms, and when they started.
  • Bearing or seal numbers. Only if you already know them. You don’t need them to ask.

Pickup and delivery

  • Pickup, delivery, both, or not required. Whether you would like PERS to collect the equipment, return it, both, or neither.
  • Pickup and return-delivery locations. Where the equipment is now, and where it should go back to.
  • Approximate dimensions and weight. If known.
  • Access restrictions. For example stairs, narrow doorways, gate hours or site permits.
  • Loading or lifting assistance needed. Say whether you need help loading or lifting. This is subject to confirmation.
  • Preferred schedule. Subject to availability.

How to reach you

  • Company, contact person and phone number. So the shop can reach you.
