The Commercial/Industrial market is a bit more complicated than the Residential market. In the Residential market, we have sized the KVAR UNIT to work with most houses in the U.S., but, the motors in the Commercial/Industrial market have to be sized for optimal savings.

 The Optimization Sizing System provides a simple and accurate way for measuring and optimizing the power factor to unity of individual inductive loads (motors). All Optimizers size up to 600 volts.

This system consists of three units for sizing:

  SINGLE PHASE UNIT we call US1, sizes all single phase equipment

  THREE PHASE UNIT we call US2, sizes fractional motors up to 75hp

  THREE PHASE UNIT we call US3, sizes motors 75hp up to 300hp.

  After sizing is completed, a precise analysis, estimated savings, estimated return on investment and system cost is prepared for the customer. We then custom build our product to fit their system.

 Depending upon the rate structure of your electric utility, you may be able to save a substantial amount of money on your electric bill. Pay-back period for an equipment purchase including installation cost may be six months up to three years. Utility rate structures that account for reactive power consumption, by either a KVA or var demand usage, or a power factor penalty are the ones that can provide this pay-back. Other ancillary benefits to be gained by optimizing power factor are, lower energy losses, better voltage regulation and released system capacity.
