Increasing energy efficiency is the cleanest, cheapest, and quickest choice to buy reliable electricity. Motors consume around 46% of all electricity utilized and 69% of all energy used in the industrial sector. Energy consumption is one of the most significant issues that many companies must address. The first issue that must be addressed is the poor architecture and improper utilization of power. Bad design and improper use are the primary causes of high electric costs and challenges satisfying the rising demand for energy. Although their greatest efficiency is at 75% of their rated load, which starts to decline as the motor ages, most motors operate between 50% and 100% of their rated load. After 50% load, the efficiency of an electric motor begins to decrease on its own.

Four Factors Find How Effectively a Motor Works:

Poor power quality has a direct impact on the performance of a motor: transients, imbalances, sags, swells, and harmonics can cause severe damage and, in extreme cases, cause the motor to cease functioning.
When a motor provides rotational force to drive a mechanical load at the spinning shaft’s rated speed, efficiency and overall performance are affected. The electric motor operates at the specified frequency and torque speed, ensuring its reliability. When measuring torque, it is possible to determine the efficiency of an electric motor.
The facts on the operation of the electric motor and what to anticipate from it: When a motor is mechanically overworked, it stresses components such as the connection, bearings, and insulation. This reduces the motor’s efficiency and might cause it to fail or cease functioning prematurely.
In summary, a motor’s efficiency has a direct impact on the bottom line. Obtaining baseline data is the first step in predictive and preventative maintenance.

75% of industrial motor failures result in 1-to-6-day annual plant shutdowns. 90% of motor failures occurred within a month after a warning, while 36% occurred within a day. To avoid motor failure and operational difficulties Regularly evaluating, analysing, inspecting, and auditing your electric motors will help you avoid problems and enhance their reliability and performance.

Statistics on Improving Motor Performance:

Increase the efficiency of an induction motor by 68% over a period of 53 years. (1960 to 2013). Over the course of a year, reducing losses in electric induction motors will increase their efficiency. The energy consumption of an induction motor has decreased throughout time (data of 45 kW, 4p design motor). CareLabs examines the performance and reliability of electric motors in a variety of commercial structures and businesses. We check and identify the problem, allowing you to reduce losses and increase motor efficiency. As qualified and experienced experts, we strive to provide excellent service to our clients.

Methods for Assessing the Performance of Electric Motors:

Before beginning the audit, we collect all site-related papers for review.
Create a one-line diagram and a check list to enhance your standing.
Use the checklist for electrical motor inspection to continue with the audit.
After completing the checklist, specialists test and inspect the electric motor.
Obtain the results of the electric motor’s examination.
Ensure that there are no issues with the load flow or the power quality.
If any issues arise, our specialist will ensure that they are resolved.
Ensure that the performance of your motor satisfies national criteria.
Provide you with a digital report and safety recommendations.

CareLabs performs motor acceleration study to ensure that the motor functions effectively under high-load circumstances and boosts productivity (by mitigating the losses). Getting rid of losses also increases the dependability of motors. In all major cities, including Manila, Quezon, Davao, Caloocan, and Cebu, we provide motor start analysis services.
