Energy Saving Motor Technology, AC Induction Motors

There is really nothing exactly like the Power Genius™, the technology that reads the load factor of constant-speed variable-load electric motor applications and instantly responds with the precise power. The result is:

• Money is saved on power costs, usually 20-40%.
• Payback is quick, depending on load factors, duty-cycles and power costs.
• The Power Genius™ includes a reliable, long-lasting solid state soft start component.
• Maintenance costs are reduced because the Power Genius typically reduces motor operating temperatures.
• Companies demonstrate their corporate commitment to the environment by helping to reduce power consumption and emissions.

Install the Power Genius™ and forget it for 15 years or more.

The Power Genius™ constantly senses the workload (change in phase lag of current and voltage) of AC induction motors.

When the actual workload of a motor is lower than its rating, the sensing circuits reduce the energy (voltage and current) being fed to the motor to the precise level the motor needs. This reduces motor energy consumption.

When the power factor increases with additional load, energy being fed to the motor increases instantly. As a result, the motor maintains its rated speed and torque under variable loads.

The Power Genius™ enables AC induction motors serving constant speed/variable load applications to operate at peak efficiency at all times. Savings on energy costs are typically 20-40% because most motors work well below rated levels much of the time.
