PRODUCT FAST FACTS:
-
ABOUT: The itsPower
Manager (iPM) is a management
tool that pays for itself by lowering costs.
-
FEATURES: iPM provides motor soft-start,
fault detection, electronic protection plus energy saving control for
all AC motors.
-
IMPROVES: iPMincreases operating efficiency,
equipment life and productivity.
-
REDUCES: iPM decreases downtime, energy
consumption and repair costs.
-
TECHNOLOGY: iPM 's
technology, the EET method, puts the motor in charge of power management.
-
SUMMARY:
The iPM avoids costs, protects and
saves energy.
TECHNOLOGY FAST
FACTS:
ORGANIC: EET does not use "artificial"
references such as preferred "Phase Lag" (used by Nola technology) or other
"error" comparisons.
INTUITIVE: EET does not "control" the motor,
but uses the motors natural properties to manage electric current.
BASED-ON-LAW: Laws of Physics generate the natural
EET control signals.
COMPLETE:
When controlled by a motor, EET is a Power Management System.
NATURAL: EET reflects the view that motors
transmit their workload need for power in a way that is electronically
detectable and thus may be command AC motor power without artificial
references.
COMMUNICATIONS-BASED: The new technology discovery is
partly due to the co-inventor’s (Rhey Hedges) extensive two-way radio
experience and communication challenges background.
SUMMARY: EET products are controlled by the
motor, not vice versa
MARKET FAST
FACTS:
A NEED FOR EFFICIENCY: Industry has an
endless need to improve the management of resources
VAST OPPORTUNITY: 66% of generated
Electric energy in the US is consumed by electric motors
SINGLE PHASE: Single phase motors are
substantially more numerous & least efficient, but only account for 5-7%
of total electric power consumed
THREE PHASE: Three phase motors are the
largest consumer, yet are more far more efficient. 90% efficiency at
‘near-full-load’ is the rule rather than the exception
BILLIONS OF MOTORS: In 1995, there were
over 4 billion AC motors in operation
$80 BILLION MARKET: Even if only 2% of the
motors are viable candidates for AC motor power management, the gross market
is $80 BILLION. ($1000/per unit for 80 million motors (2% of 4bil)
MORE PROFITS:"A reduction of $1000 in the cost of maintenance contributes to profit
the same as $24,000 in sales." From Maintenance Today,
August 1989
SUMMARY: When motors stop… business
profits stops and costs increase
