Q&A

Motors will provide especially good savings when a powerPerfector is installed, they can be found inside refrigeration equipment and air conditioning as well as their more obvious applications.

Following a powerPerfector installation, the stress and losses on motors will be reduced so they operate closer to their nameplate rating whilst maintaining constant power output at the drive shaft. This will reduce maintenance costs for the lifetime of the motor. Through the more efficient operation of the motors, there will also be a reduction in the amount of reactive power (kVAr) consumed which will improve the power factor.

Along with over-voltage, the powerPerfector will also help to address phase imbalance and total harmonic distortion (THD); both these problems can lead to excessive vibration of the motor causing faster wear and tear on the bearings.
