Premium-Efficiency Motors & Transformers CD-ROM

Motors and transformers are essential to the operation of virtually every industrial and commercial building. And, with both devices, the operating cost can easily exceed the initial purchase price, sometimes very significantly. In motors, for example, the purchase price may only be 1 or 2 percent of the total owning cost, while operating cost (electricity) can be 98 percent. That is why making the right energy-efficiency choice is so important.

This CD-ROM explains some of the mechanical aspects of how more-efficient motors and transformers are made, how they differ from standard-efficiency products, and why they are worth the premium you may pay. We also examine properly selecting the right capacity unit for the job (oversizing a motor or transformer can result in significant energy losses) and going beyond the Energy Policy Act and other practices to help save energy, protect the environment and add to your company's bottom line.

Last, we explain how to perform the simple math to analyze the total cost of ownership and some tools available to help you make the right selection. Several examples of motor and transformer life-cycle cost calculations are presented.

This CD-ROM contains approximately 40 minutes of video (using QuickTime), plus text (utilizes Adobe Acrobat for printable versions). Requires PC with 200 MHz Pentium or equivalent, sound card. For Windows 98, 2000, or XP.
