The formula for the overall efficiency of turbocompressors

The higher the overall efficiency of a turbo compressor, the less electrical energy it needs to do the same work, but the efficiency of each individual component is crucial.»

Top banana in terms of performance thanks to an EC motor

Tropical Argentina SRL is truly passionate about fruit! The company is based in Buenos Aires and stores bananas and many other fruits in special ripening tunnels before shipping them to supermarkets and distributors. For the first time, they decided to use energy-efficient EC technology from ebm-papst to equip the latest system it had planned and built.»

Retrofit in the supermarket: cool for the climate

The DFI Retail Group wants to drastically reduce its energy consumption and has launched a huge retrofit project in its approximately 1,000 supermarkets and grocery stores in Hong Kong: 10,000 of its older ventilation drives have been replaced by energy-efficient EC motors.»

Busy helpers in the shipping center

ebm-papst is using a clever automation solution to make its shipping logistics more efficient and less burdensome for its employees.»

Cooling for the future of electromobility

Range and charging times are important parameters for electric vehicles. This is why fast charging processes are becoming increasingly popular and high-performance cooling concepts are required. They need to be well integrated and work reliably for a long time, even under harsh conditions. »

The first external rotor EC motors with 20 kW shaft power

Fan impellers with diameters of one or two meters are often driven by AC motors. However, by the time the next stage of the Ecodesign Regulation for fans comes into force, many of these solutions will no longer meet the increased requirements. The suitable alternative will then be new high-performance EC external rotor motors that operate at high efficiency levels. »

What The Tech: How does an electronically commutated EC motor work?

What are the differences between an electric motor with an alternating current (AC motor) and an electronically commutated EC motor and what are the advantages? »

Ahead of time with the EC motor: More efficient, quieter, smarter

Fan technology has developed very rapidly over the past 50 years. This would not be possible if you didn’t look at the big development picture: ventilation connections and therefore the perfect interaction of motor technology, electronics and aerodynamics. ebm-papst has been a key part of this evolution.»

The formula for current harmonics

Current harmonics are a burden for the power grid and the budget. Instead of going to great lengths to reduce then, it is best to avoid them altogether.»

The formula for the residual circuit breaker

A fault current’s waveform is crucial to the selection of the
right residual current circuit breaker – also for EC motors.»
