It provides two ways to calculate energy consumption – by entering the minimum pump or flow percentages, annual operating hours, cost per kilowatt and other information about their own factory, or by using sample data that is built into the tool.The tool forms part of the Rockwell Automation Intelligent Motor Control portfolio, which helps manufacturers to access and control their motor assets. The technology behind Intelligent Motor Control – including variable frequency drives, intelligent software and condition-monitoring devices is said to help improve motor control performance for greater overall production efficiency.
