Energy reduction by rotating equipment improvements
Brief description of services
Implementation of a contact free magnetic coupling (of the OEM ZYTEC) between motor-drives and pumps and/or fans. This type of coupling enables a reduction, or sometimes even an elimination, of process-choking which results in a reduction of energy-losses. SPIE performs technical and economical feasibility studies, executes the installation and maintenance of the coupling.
Key features
- Contact free magnetic coupling replaces a conventional fixed coupling
- Most suitable for horizontal designs with fixed coupling and power between 7,5 kW and 500 kW
- Easy retrofit of existing pump-sets or fan-sets within 2 to 4 hours downtime without displacement of the pump, fan and motor
- Full CE-marking according to Legal Requirements
Applicable customer segments
- Any industry with considerable number of pumps and fans between 7,5 kW and 500 kW
- In particular: Process industry, utility-plants, steel industry
Business example
- Modification of 4 boiler feedwater pumps with contact free magnetic couplings at a utility provider
- Modification of 3 booster pumps with contact free magnetic couplings at a reverse osmosis filtration unit of a pharmaceutical company
Key benefits
- Energy reduction up-to 50% (case dependant)
- Reliability improvements
- Downtime reduction
