Warranty, liability and support

We shall not be held liable for any information provided in this document.

We accept no liability for any damage or loss caused by the applications,

information, programs, planning data, or performance data described in this

example, irrespective of the legal basis for claims arising from such damage

or loss, unless liability is mandatory. For example, according to the product

liability law, in cases of malfeasance, gross negligence, due to endangerment

of life, body or health, due to assumption of a guarantee for a product's

characteristics of state, due to malicious concealment of a defect or due to

violation of basic contractual obligations. Any claims for damages caused by

violation of basic contractual obligations, however, shall be limited to the

foreseeable damage or loss which is typically envisaged in contracts unless

there has been malfeasance or gross negligence or unless liability is

mandatory due to endangerment of life, the body or health. This does not

entail a change in the burden of proof to your disadvantage.

MEPS

On one hand, considerable emphasis is placed on energy efficiency

to protect our environment. On the other hand, a higher energy

efficiency allows companies to improve their cost position,

therefore increasing their competitiveness.

Sustainably reducing energy usage

Regarding energy efficiency, the focus has been on industrial direct-on-line

(DOL) motors from a very early stage. This is because electric drives consume

70% of the electric energy in the industry. As a consequence, electric drives

represent a huge potential when it comes to boosting efficiency. Many

countries have already created a legal framework to reduce energy

consumption in their industrial landscape – and to achieve the environmental

goals that have been set.

Standards

Initially, global standards were defined to achieve this, for instance IEC

60034-30-1 and NEMA MG1. The standards were either taken over – or

transitioned into minimum legal efficiency requirements. The term used

around the globe for these minimum efficiencies is MEPS: Minimum Energy

Performance Standards.


Profit from MEPS

Companies operating plants especially profit from MEPS regulations as these

help them to boost their productivity. For instance, for a 110kW motor, the

energy costs represent up to 99% of the overall lifecycle costs. As a

consequence, by increasing the efficiency of a motor, the energy

consumption can be significantly reduced – and along with it, the associated

costs. Companies operating plants can sustainably benefit when investing in

energy efficiency.

Tools

Tools are available that can be used to define when it makes sense to invest in

energy efficient motors:

SIMOTICS EE Comparator

The efficiency of IE4 motors is 14% higher than for IE1. Operating costs can

be reduced with a high efficiency. A payback calculation always makes sense

in order to select the most cost-effective motor for line operation. Every

country has its own specific MEPS requirements. An overview of these

requirements is listed below, but can also be simply viewed using the

SIMOTICS EE-COMPARATOR App.


SinaSave

Answers to questions, such as "What is the payback time when investing in a

more efficient motor?", "Does it make sense to use a variable-speed drive or a

DOL motor for my applications?", "How does the energy efficiency class of a

motor impact the cost effectiveness of the drive system?", can be found in the

web-based SinaSave tool. Based on individual operating characteristics as

well as system-specific parameters, SinaSave calculates the energy

requirements of various drive products and systems, which are then

compared with one another. Further, SinaSave tells you the payback time

when investing in an energy-efficient drive solution. Based on the investment

and operating costs as well as the energy-saving potential, this tool calculates

the expected payback time. Not only this, it also provides fast and

straightforward help for decision-making when it comes to financially

assessing the investment in energy-efficient products.

You can find SinaSave here: siemens.de/sinasave.

Low-voltage motors for every requirement

SIMOTICS low-voltage motors are available in a power range from 0.09 kW to

3500 kW – to address many efficiency standards worldwide. We can offer you

the optimum solution for every specific requirement: in addition to energy

efficient motors in compliance with specific standards, explosion-protected

motors for the highest safety standards, along with motors for specific sectors

and customers. Employing state-of-the-art product and production

technologies, these motors are especially compact – and in many cases have

the same dimensions irrespective of the particular efficiency class.
