SmartVFD HVAC and BYPASS Introduction

2 Smart Technology to Reduce Electricity Consumption “Today, our continuing progress is restricted…not by the power of pumps, but by the depletion of aquifers.” - Paul Hawken Natural Capitalism What Can We Do? - Generation Wind, Solar, Geothermal - Transmission Smart Grid, local generation - Efficiency Almost everything else including drives Buildings use 40% of US Energy

3 Buildings use Massive Amounts of Energy Buildings use 40% of US Energy 74% of electricity is consumed by commercial buildings (source: US DOE, 2008 Building Energy Data Book) More than half of that electricity is used to move air and water Pumps & fans use more than half the world’s energy

4 Why Buy Drives: VFDs Reduce Electricity Use VFDs significantly reduce electrical consumption - Most pump and fan systems are oversized to account for maximum loads - Capacity usually exceeds demand - Application of VFDs converts systems to variable flow Green House Gas Reduction - 80% of commercial building CO 2 emission due to electricity consumption VFDs reduce Wear and Tear - Soft Start A VFD provides speed control for a fixed-speed motor

5 Opportunities are Everywhere Supply and return fans Cooling Towers Compressors Stairway and parking ventilation Boiler pumps and fans Kitchen Hoods Roof Top Units Air Handlers Elevators Escalators VFDs are a crucial part of energy management systems
