Motors Basic. Part Five: Physical Considerations – eliminating condensation, motor insulation, ingress protection; Efficiency Legislation

In this article we start to look at some of the physical considerations to be taken into account alongside the choice of motor for each application

NEW HEAT PUMPS WITH LOW GWP REFRIGERANT R-454B (GWP 466)

With the new air-source reversible Heat Pumps incorporating the refrigerant R-454B we have created market leading solutions in terms of low global warming (GWP) refrigerants. With a GWP value of only 466, thus a reduction of 78% compared to traditional gases, the refrigerant is best-in-class within scroll technology.

MOTORS BASIC. Part Four: Physical Considerations – motor mountings, measuring the motor frame, and thermal protection

In this article we start to look at some of the physical considerations to be taken into account alongside the choice of motor for each application.

Motors Basic. Part Three: Basic Principles – permanent magnet AC motors and motor ratings

In this article we look at the benefits – and disadvantages – of permanent magnet AC motors, how motors are rated, and the impact of starting currents and Power Factors.

MOTORS BASIC. PART TWO: BASIC PRINCIPLES - AC INDUCTION MOTORS

In this article we look at the operation of the most common type of fan motor – the AC induction motor.

MOTORS BASIC. PART ONE: BASIC PRINCIPLES – ELECTRICAL PRINCIPLES, SIMPLE MOTOR OPERATION, ALTERNATING CURRENT; AND TRANSMITTING THE ELECTRICITY

Understanding the basics of electric motors is vital to be able to select the right motor for the right application. In this article we look at the principles of DC and AC electricity and simple motor operation.

What is Automatic Pressure Balancing, and how does it eliminate contamination?

Automatic Pressure Balancing ensures any air leakage inside an AHU, when a Rotary Heat Exchanger is used for energy recovery, is always in the direction of clean supply air to dirty extract air.

NEW WATER-COOLED INVERTER CHILLERS (FGWC) WITH THE NON-FLAMMABLE & LOW-GWP REFRIGERANT R-513A

The new water-cooled Chillers FGWC 2140-2465 AE2 with capacities from 530-1780 kW are now available. In line with the F-Gas directive, the alternative refrigerant R-513A is used to replace the conventional refrigerant R-134a and to achieve a reduction in GWP of 56%. Furthermore, the ErP-2021 requirements are easily achieved.
