Part ISaving Energy
You save energy by improving the overall efficiency of thedriven system. There are many energy wasters within agiven system, but one component that should always bechecked is the power input side or the electric motor.
The BE$T program concentrates on improving the power inputof the system. BE$T calculates the estimated energy thatcan be saved by using Premium Efficient motors and driveswhere applicable. Payback periods for motor efficiencyupgrades are calculated and motor replacement timetablesare recommended.

Why is Motor Efficiency Important?
- Wasted Energy $
10 Hp motor running at full load
Measured Power in - 8,025 Watts
Power out = 10 Hp x 746 = 7460Watts
Efficiency = Power Out / Power In
Efficiency = 7460 / 8025
Efficiency = .930 or 93.0%

What is Higher Efficiency Worth? Even a4.5 point efficiency gain is important.

BE$TBasic Motor Calculations
Annual Motor Operating Cost
To find the annual operating cost of one motor
(HP * .746Watt/HP * %ML * Hours * /kWh) / Efficiency
To find the annual operating cost difference between
two motors
(HP * .746Watt/HP * %ML * Hours * /kWh) / {1/(Enew Eold)}
%ML = percent motor load, Hours = annual operating hours, E = efficiency

Obtain Even More Energy Savings by
Using Drives on Variable Torque Loads
Potential Energy Savings
Air conditioning 20-25%
Compressors 20-25%
Central refrigeration 25-35%
Blowers and fans 30-35%
Feedwater pumps 30-50%

Why does this work?Variable Torque Pump and Fan Loads use the Affinity Laws,
the required HP is a cubic function of rpm.
7/30/2019 Baldor BE$T Features
12/75
In words, using an adjustable speed drive
saves energy by?
Reducing the speed of a variable torque pump or fansignificantly reduces the energy usage of the drivingmotor.
The why can be summarized by a set of rules called theaffinity rules.
1. Flow produced by the system is proportional to the motorspeed.
2. Pressure produced by the system is proportional to themotor speed squared.
3. Horsepowerrequired by the system is proportional to themotor speed cubed.
7/30/2019 Baldor BE$T Features
13/75
An Example:A adjustable speed drive (ASD) running a variabletorque load at 50% speed needs to deliver only 12.5% of the horsepower
required to run it at 100 percent speed.
7/30/2019 Baldor BE$T Features
14/75
Not every driven system can benefit from
using an Adjustable Speed Drive
A constant torque system would not use a drive to save energy, butmay use one for convenience.
If you have a variable torque system.
Look at the typical operating points or load profile of the systemthroughout the day to see if the system could benefit from a drive.
The load profile determines the amount of energy savings that ispossible.
Does the system require full power all the time?
Does the load on the system vary throughout the day?
The load profile can be set in the program.
