Energy Improvements
In process plants energy consumption is often a key factor for overall plant efficiency and when reduced can have an overall impact on a companies manufacturing efficiency and competitive edge.
Typical examples of energy wastage include:
- Poor Power Factor Correction
- Poor motor drive matching
- Inefficient starting of equipment
- Unnecessary process throttling instead of speed control
- Poor control system applications and poor tuning
- Poor heating / cooling control designs and applications
- Inefficient lagging of process pipe work
The list goes on and on, but what becomes apparent is that with design rectification, effective control and continuous monitoring of energy, a process or manufacturing plant can be vastly improved, maximising plant value and efficiency.
Consolution offer a range of energy monitoring and energy improvement control panels and plant improvement packages. By monitoring and implementing reduction strategies for high energy usage in specific plant areas, a company can often generate a rapid project payback, sometimes within months.
