Blower Efficiency Improvement

Are your blowers operating at optimum efficiency?

Two thirds of industrial energy is consumed by electric motors. A typical electric motor costing a few hundred pounds will consume many tens of thousands of pounds in energy during its life time. Upgrading to a newer higher efficiency motor could in itself payback within 12 months. Couple that with a closed loop control system, which adjusts the motor voltage to match your system load, and the savings could be even higher.

This might not mean a new blower. The biggest savings may come from the motor, drive train and control systems.

A strategic partnership

Our partnership with Brook Crompton motors and Mitsubishi controls, means we have the specialist expertise and equipment to save you hard cash, often in a very short space of time. Contact us to arrange a no obligation energy survey on your blower installation and we can estimate the cost savings and payback period.

Case study
