*This video shows everything you need to install  AEGIS Shaft Grounding Rings with conductive epoxy.*

## How to install AEGIS Rings with Conductive Epoxy

(Only 4 minutes long!)

 

 Below are the steps and instructions found in the video. 

1. List of tools and supplies needed
2.  Personal Protective Equipment
3.  Where to install - DE (all motors) and NDE (TEFC motors)
4.  ***Removing the paint from the motor's end bracket***
5.  Cleaning the motor shaft to bare metal where the AEGIS microfibers touch
6.  Apply AEGIS Colloidal Silver Shaft Coating (CS015) to the motor shaft - Allow to dry before installing the ring
7.  Use only AEGIS Conductive Epoxy (EP2400) - Tested and proven
8.  Mix even amounts of the EP2400 - ***Mix thoroughly!***
9.  Apply the mixed epoxy to the metal back of the AEGIS Ring
10.  Install the AEGIS Ring to the motor's end bracket - ***Ensure metal-to-metal contact!***
11.  Make sure the AEGIS ring is centered around the shaft - look for an even gap all around the ring near the shaft
12. The epoxy cures in four hours at or above 75°F (24°C), or 10 minutes with a heat gun

Remove paint for a clean metal surface.
