1-phase Powersaver

A saving of up to 20% on your electricity bills can be achieved simply by reducing your incoming supply voltages from the UK average level of 242V to a more modest 220V or lower dependent on the site loads. In 1995 the statutory supplies voltages across the EU were to be harmonized to 230V ±10% (207V to 253V). The full implementation has not yet taken place. However, the present UK statutory supply is 230 Volts ‐6% +10% (216.2V to 253.0V). The Powersaver advantage over any other method of voltage optimisation is that each phase is independently and linearly controlled to a site predetermined level. The adaptive control maintains this level, eliminating voltage fluctuations, allowing the full potential savings to be achieved. Additionally, by balancing the phase voltages, direct drive motors will also improve their efficiency. Powersaver has as standard a digital voltmeter and external output voltage adjustments allowing further reductions and therefore potentially more savings to be made on site, whilst on‐line and load. To meet all site requirements, Powersaver is available with a number of correction ranges to accommodate the actual site voltage levels and loadings. Powersaver is also available as a single three phase unit, where access is not so difficult.
