Industrial Motors Keep the World Turning
Industrial motors and the systems they drive are present in most processing industries, from food and beverage to water and wastewater. Not surprisingly, the energy they consume is considerable, and efforts to ensure they are as efficient as possible will save not only energy and money, but the environment as well. This issue looks at industrial motors and related components, and the industries they serve as well, such as food and beverage and water and wastewater. Enjoy reading!

Featured Article: Premium Efficiency Motors
Conserving Power and CO2 Emissions with Premium Efficiency Motors
The process of converting electrical energy to mechanical energy is never perfect. As much as we would like to have a 100% efficient motor, it is impossible to build a machine that will take 746 watts of electricity (equivalent of 1 Hp) and convert it to 1 Hp of mechanical output. It always takes somewhat more than 746 watts to yield 1 Hp’s worth of output. How much power consumption )aka money) are you spending that you do not have to? Take a minute to read more...

Featured Article: Why Use VFD Cables?
Why Use VFD Cables? HELUKABLE Answers
Why Use VFD Cables? VFD cables are a critical component to extend a motor’s life cycle within a VFD system. Three areas where VFD cables set themselves apart from traditional tray-rated power cables are to address high and low frequency noise issues with proper shielding, ro provide the ability to withstand voltage spikes/reflected wave voltage, and to aid with high-temperature resistance. Further enhance your electric motor’s lifespan by using EMC glands to...
