This is due to their ability to reduce electrical energy costs, and improve energy efficiency, by correcting power factor on the motor power supply. Because of the size and nature of the applications in which synchronous motors are used, the energy savings can be considerable, and often result in fast payback of the motor expenditure; with all subsequent savings helping to reduce the user’s operating costs.Tue, 14 Aug 2012 10:35:12 GMThttp://www.weg.net/bs/Media-Center/News/Products-Solutions/ZEST-WEG-Group-signs-landmark-supply-agreement-with-Lonmin-Platinumhttp://www.weg.net/bs/Media-Center/News/Products-Solutions/ZEST-WEG-Group-signs-landmark-supply-agreement-with-Lonmin-PlatinumZest WEG Group has entered into a landmark supply agreement with Lonmin Platinum, the world’s third biggest producer of platinum.
