iMEC - Intelligent Motor Energy Controllers
iMEC saves up to 50% on electric motors

 

How does iMEC work?
AC induction motors consume more than half of all the worlds’ energy! Unfortunately, motors lack the intelligence to address three key problems that lead to massive energy wastage, unnecessary carbon emissions and undue wear and tear:

  1. Fixed speed motor driven applications like escalators cannot intelligently adjust their torque output to match load changes leading to excess energy consumption.

  2. Motors that drive applications like pumps and fans cannot intelligently adjust their speed to match load changes and as such consume more power than they need.

  3. imecWhen starting, a motor develops more torque than is required at full speed. This high inrush of current can lead to mechanical breakdown and peak demand penalties. To avoid the problems associated with starting, motors are often left running continuously even when they are not being used leading to huge energy waste.

BENEFITS OF iMEC

  • Speed control delivers savings of up to 50%.

  • Torque control can offer a payback in under 2 years.

  • Controlled starting reduces wear & tear and peak demand costs.

  • Auto Switch Off delivers 100% energy savings.
