Time
In “Motor Efficiency Improvements for Pumping Applications,” new manufacturer’s optimized designs will be discussed. Most past motor improvements have been accomplished by adding active material to reduce loses in the motor. U. S. energy regulators also have stepped up requirements for users to purchase and use more energy efficient designs. Two new rules passed by the U.S. Department of Energy raise the efficiency bar on most NEMA frame motors in 2015 and 2016.
This webinar will discuss:
- The new DOE rules for 2015 and 2016
- Motor management best practices
- A case study of a motor retrofit at a U.S. water plant
- Information on new technologies that could form the next generation of super-premium efficient motors
