Advantages and Disadvantages of Carbon brushes
Carbon Brushes: In this article we will discuss about advantages and disadvantages of carbon brushes.
Carbon brushes:
Carbon brushes are commonly used in D.C motors/machine to regulate the electrical connection and this carbon brushes used for different purposes like polish, lubricate etc.
Advantages of carbon brushes:
- Carbon brushes used to rotate on the commutator to polish it.
- These brushes are a self-lubricating type.
- Carbon brushes are one of the best electrical conductors.
- By using these types of brushes we can increase the conductivity.
- This is also used at low circuit’s which can work under the low-power field.
Disadvantages of carbon brushes:
- These brushes are not useful at higher density’s.
- Carbon brushes work’s according to the density.
- If the density is high the contact between commutator and carbon brushes low.
