Using Altivar ATV 61 inverter drives for saving energy on fan and pump motors offers some of the fastest returns in terms of payback time. In most cases fans and pumps do not need to run at full speed. They can be controlled manually or electronically to run at the right speed required by the […]
These days’ tough economic conditions are the norm for the UK manufacturing, and a significant cost attributed to energy spend and prices look set to rise again adding more pressure. However, cost savings can be realised by installing Omron inverter drives to suitable applications. It is too easy to assume that everyone knows […]
Mitsubishi Electric’s high performance inverter drives are widely used in a range of applications from simple HVAC fan and pump control through to projects with demanding loads and control requirements. – FR-D700 micro drive: 0.1 to 7.5kW simple applications and single phase – FR-E700 series: 0.1 to 15kW single and three phase high performance […]
Installing IMO Jaguar inverter drives has enabled a manufacturer of paper bleaching agents to win the fight against rising energy costs. The manufacturer, Tielle S.R.L. is benefiting from savings of €1000 per day in production costs following the installation of eight 280kW IMO Jaguar drives to grinding mixers at its plant […]
According to estimates, motors consume 70% of the energy used by European industry. It is widely recognised that large energy savings can be made by fitting variable speed inverter drives to fan and pump applications particularly where valves or dampers are employed. See earlier article “Simplified guide to energy saving with variable frequency drives”. […]
