Franz Eisele is a leading German manufacturer of pumps and agitators for the agriculture and biogas sectors. The company is boosting the efficiency of its products with motors and drives from ABB. IE5 SynRM motor and ACQ580 drive packages will be available both in new products and for retrofitting in installations with IE2 and IE3 motors.
The high efficiency of the motors makes them a clear pro-environmental choice. Just three 20 kW pumps driven by these motors could potentially save almost 16 MWh per year - more than the average annual consumption of an electric car. The equivalent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is 7,800 kg. Eisele's pumps and agitators with IE5 motors are eligible for German government ‘BAFA’ subsidies, resulting in extremely short payback times – even less than one month.
Straightforward packaged solutions
ABB’s SynRM motor and drive package solutions help to streamline sourcing processes, giving customers the convenience of dealing with a single supplier. The motors and drives are perfectly matched, so commissioning is fast and easy. Customers can also benefit from support based on ABB’s domain expertise in water and wastewater pumping applications.
“We know that in ABB we have a partner who is absolutely committed to excellence when it comes to reliable, high-performance motors,” says Dominik Eisele, Managing Director.
Turning to the benefits of the motor and drive packages, he adds: “The advantages include easy and quick handling, lower carbon emissions due to increased energy efficiency and, of course, securing or improving profitability for our customers thanks to the high return on investment in conjunction with the BAFA subsidy program in Germany.”
