Integra Power Technology

Due to the need to size motors to meet maximum loads typical electric motors are oversized for the operating conditions they are subjected to. As a result most electric motors are inefficient in their use of electric power. Precision Power Labs(PPL, formerly ACI) Integra Power motor controllers utilize microprocessors to monitor motor power consumption and relays to control the quantity of power delivered to the motor. As a result, motors utilizing PPL Integra Power technology consume less power, run cooler, and exhibit reduced vibration. In addition, PPL Integra Power products provide your motors with Soft Start and Soft Stop capability, transient protection, and harmonic filtration at a fraction of the cost of competitors equipment.

How IntegraPower works:

1. Measures the phase angle between the current and the voltage

2. The embedded digital signal processor (DSP) calculates the displacement power factor, which is a function of the mechanical load.

3. The controller utilizes this data to optimize the RMS voltage supplied to the motor by appropriately modulating series SCR switches.

4. The process is continuously repeated to ensure minimum energy consumption and maximum motor performance under changing load conditions

A-Phase Voltage and Current

Light Motor Load: large phase angle, more savings available
Heavy Motor Load: small phase angle, less savings available
