Electric
motors are widely used in the manufacturing
industry. They are primarily operated
to drive industrial applications
and processes such as pumps, fans,
blowers, conveyors, compressors,
grinders and many more. Motors are
set in motion by electric power
and their usage in large numbers
by industries makes it inevitable
that the bulk of electricity supplied
to the manufacturing industries
by utilities is consumed by this
equipment. In fact, motors in certain
industries like pulp, paper and
textile consume up to 90% of total
electricity supplied to these sector.
In terms of Ringgit and Sens motor
users in Malaysia spend approximately
RM 9 billion annually in electricity
cost to run them. |

Industries
have an option to replace inefficient
motors with High Efficiency Motors (HEM).The
performance of HEMs far exceeds the performance
of standard motors. HEMs produce more
work per unit of electricity consumed
as against standard motors.
A HEM
performs better because of its improved
design, higher quality material and manufacturing
techniques in fact these qualities also
lead to other benefits such as longer
insulation and bearing life , lower heat
generation and less vibration all of which
increase reliability .
Improving
motor efficiency lowers operating costs,
increases profits and reduces emissions
of green house gases from industrial facilities.
Great savings can be achieved by increasing
motor efficiency.
