Hands On Exercise 15 minutes hands on activity: Calculating the operating cost of a standard efficiency and high efficiency motor in front of you or at the bench. Use reference materials to calculate the energy use and operating cost of an electric motor. Figure.10/kW/cost Figure your motor runs ½ of the year
List Things To Do to Improve your 1. Motors Operating Costs 2. 3. Put together and maintain a Motor Database Include Motor Operating Costs in decision making Commit to keeping the database up to date, easy to use and accessible Use a Repair Purchasing Specification
Summary Power and Motors Small changes to motor load, efficiency and run time make big differences in operating cost. Knowing your motor operating costs enables you to make effective repair/replace decisions when motors fail. A motor database is the key to effectively managing your motors and tracking operating costs. Free motor database tools are available.
