High energy costs have a significant impact on operating costs since they account for 97% of life cycle costs of a motor, with purchase and installation accounting for only 3%. In Germany alone, there are potential savings of about 1.5 billion euros per year to be gained from the use of energy-optimized drives.
Significantly lower operating costs, up to 45% less power losses, extended service life, low maintenance - our new energy-saving motors pay for themselves in every respect.
Our enormously powerful energy-saving motors are based on Siemens low-voltage motors, millions of them are in use around the world. They can easily be integrated anywhere, they comply with all current international standards and cover more than 90% of all conceivable applications worldwide. With their aluminium or cast-irom enclosures, frame sizes from 56 to 450 mm, outputs of between 0.06 and 1,000kW - our rugged, energy-saving motors offer an excellent price-performance ratio and high operational reliability and they are compatible with every drive concept.
Selection Of Types
We are one of the few motor suppliers in the world to offer a complete range of energy-saving motors:
High-efficiency energy-saving motors that comply with EU High Efficiency class EFF1.
Improved-efficiency energy-saving motors that comply with the EU Improved Efficiency class EFF2.
Energy-saving motors in accordance with US EPACT (Energy Policy Act of 1992) for 60-Hz operation.
Energy Saving Motors - The Benefits At A Glance:
Noticeable reduction of operating costs due to optimization of efficiency.
1LA9/1LG6 motors comply with both EFF1 and EPACT efficiency.
Easy selction of motors due to efficiency factor classification (EFF1/EFF2) and Siemens energy-saving program:
Longer motor service life and lubrication intervals due to lower motor temperature for EFF1 and EPACT motors.
High overload reserves in continuous operation (SF 1.15 for 1LA9/1LG6).
All motors are inverter-resistant up to 500V.
Less harm to environment due to reduction of CO2
Integration into Totally Integrated Automation via frequency inverters and PROFIBUS-DP®.
