How the imop works

Electrical power is made up of two components: active power and reactive power. Active power is referred to as the ‘useful’ or working energy source, which enables the electrical equipment to perform its function. Reactive power, however, does not perform ‘useful’ work. Its only function is to develop the electromagnetic fields (EMFs) in order to grind the induction windings of the motor.

The imop works by reclaiming, storing and then supplying the reactive power element of electricity to inductive motors and loads. As the electrical equipment operates, this reactive power is ‘pulled and pushed’ to and from the imop by the motor. Reactive power is then recycled by the imop, which is able to supply it on the spot without having to draw it from the national grid. Saving on electricity bills is just one of the benefits because the motors will also run cooler and more efficiently, and of course require less maintenance. Since cooler motors live considerably longer there is the added bonus of reduced expenditure on capital purchases.

THE GLOBAL ENERGY CHALLENGE:
FACE THE FACTS

  • Electrical supply costs will increase.
  • Businesses will be penalised for inefficient equipment.
  • Carbon emission charges are already in place and likely to become increasingly harsh in the not-too-distant future.
  • Companies are facing pressure to demonstrate their green credentials.
  • Demonstrating that a company has taken steps to reduce its carbon footprint and energy consumption will be critical — not only in financial overheads but also in business PR.

OUR GREEN CREDENTIALS

Our energy-saving claims have been independently verified by the European Union’s Environmental Technologies Verification scheme

See Accreditation
 

YOUR GUARANTEE

We are able to identify energy savings following our sizing survey and guarantee a return on investment of less than three years. Actually, our findings have shown that the return on investment is usually two years or less.

Power savings are immediate. In industrial environments, savings vary from 6% to an impressive 25%. In commercial applications, expected savings are between 6% and 17%.
