BLDC Motors Contribute to Advances in HVAC Industry

BLDC MOTORS CONTRIBUTE TO ADVANCES IN HVAC INDUSTRY THE HEATING, VENTILATION, AND AIR CONDITIONING INDUSTRY IS ALWAYS SEARCHING FOR NEW INNOVATIONS IN ORDER TO PROVIDE COMFORT, AFFORDABILITY, AND EFFICIENCY. ADVANCES IN BRUSHLESS DC MOTOR (BLDC) TECHNOLOGY ARE MAKING THOSE INNOVATIONS POSSIBLE. THE WORLD RUNS ON ELECTRIC MOTORS 1886 THE AVERAGE ELECTRIC MOTOR LASTS 20 YEARS. Brushed DC motors are first commercially used. of the total cost of an electric $$$ 1% motor is the initial purchase cost. 1962 990% of the total cost of an electri motor is spent on owning, Brushless DC motors (BLDC) are first commercially used. operating, and maintenance. Electric motors and their systems consume 30% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions are from U.S. industrial energy use. 43-460% electricily. of all global Electric motors provide 60% of the power used in U.S. industrial buildings. ELECTRIC MOTOR ENERGY USE BY SECTOR (2008) COMMERCIAL (Primarily HVAC) RESIDENTIAL (Primarily refrigerators and HVAC) AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRIAL (Primarily handling and processing) (Primarily pumps and fans) TRANSPORT (Primarily electric railways) 68.9% 38.3% 20-25% 20-25% 60% HVAC INDUSTRY & ENERGY EFFICIENT TRENDS GLOBALLY, THE HVAC MARKET IS PROJECTED TO EXCEED $139 BILLION BY 2018. $$$$ 14 Air conditioners must have a SEER rating of 13 14 or higher to be ENERGY STAR qualified. Heating and cooling the home accounts for 56% of U.S. residential energy use. All residential air conditioners in the U.S. must have a SEER rating (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) of 13 or higher. 24-35% Advanced control packages, like multi-speed fans, can increase energy efficiency 24-35%, and reduce costs by 38%. 38% BLDC MOTOR BENEFITS TO THE HVAC INDUSTRY Stator Increased Energy Efficiency Rotor (Permanent Magnets) Quieter Smaller Stator Winding (in slots) B Lightweight Variable Speeds The Brushless DC (BLDC) Motor Less Maintenance than Brushed DC Motors www.Sinotech.com sinotech Copyright 2014 Sinatech Infographic designed by Mad Fish SEO Sources: GreenBusinessMatters.com, USMotors.com, Wikipedia.org.
