Increased energy cost is undoubtedly
one of the major problems facing industry today. Since almost every product
is manufactured with the utilisation of motors – it is not surprising that
the AC induction motor is the world’s single biggest consumer of energy.
Collectively as a world resource, motors consume over $300 billion in energy
each year! In reality, the cost of running motors is a significant cost
element of every product we purchase. |

Motors
typically work at only 50/60% of rated capacity.

Wasted
Energy
Typically, most AC induction motors
are under full load for only limited periods, and at other times, huge
amounts of energy is wasted as heat and vibration. Unfortunately motors
have no way of intelligently adjusting the amount of electricity they draw
in relation to the job of work they do. |
|
| In
practical applications, many motors are working significantly below their
design capacity resulting in high levels of inefficiency. It is clear,
if you could intelligently monitor and reduce the power drawn by a motor
to match its actual need under variable load conditions, you would open
up an enormous energy savings opportunity. |
