A recent posting (3rd Sept) on www.themonty.com discusses some of the issues heat treaters face with peak demand charges – in fact the discussion shows that the penalty of high peaks can offset savings made in reduced energy usage (the article compares 37% less energy usage but the bill is only 3% less) . This [...]

Using Phase Angle?  Here is the Solution for Cleaner Supply and Cost Savings Just released – white paper. The load tap changer is a powerful solution for applications that require phase angle firing due to the nature of the load or for convenience. By dramatically improving the power factor compared to a traditional phase angle [...]

A major overhaul of NFPA 86, the recognized standard for ovens and furnaces, will impact your operations. After the proposed changes are announced in late June, you will have fewer than 3 months to submit your comments. Attend a free webinar with NFPA 86 Committee Secretary Richard J. Martin, who will present the most important [...]

Electricity provider deploys a solution centered on EPower controller technology on a Heat Treatment furnace reducing energy cost through efficient distribution across a variety of loads and conditions. In this application, the PLM function of the SCR power controller manages the heating elements and regulates power input across the combustion process, combining improved communications and [...]

Control Engineering announced today that this year’s “Engineers Choice Award” for the Power category is awarded to EPower for Predictive Load Management. Its PLM function anticipates energy needs and optimizes power demand through load balancing and load shedding strategies. Detailed information on the PLM function can be found in a newly release white paper written [...]
