As value for the fixed speed case, the rated motor size (kW) is multiplied with a factor (set in %) representing the power yielded at fixed speed. The
difference between this reference power and the actual power is accumulated and stored. The difference in energy can be read in par. 23-83,
Energy
Savings
.
The accumulated value for the difference in power consumption is multiplied with the energy cost in local currency and the investment is subtracted. This
calculation for Cost Savings can also be read in par. 23-84,
Cost Savings
.
Cost Savings = (
(Reference Power – Actual Power)) * Energy Cost – Additional Cost
Break even (payback) occurs when the value read in the parameter turns from negative to positive.
It is not possible to reset the Energy Savings counter, but the counter can be stopped any time by setting par. 23-80,
Power Reference Factor
, to 0.

23-80 Power Reference Factor
Range:
Function:
100 %*
[0 - 100 %]
Set the percentage of the rated motor size (set in par. 1-20
Motor Power [kW]
or par. 1-21
Motor
Power [HP]
) which is supposed to represent the average power yielded at the time running with
fixed speed (before upgrade with variable speed control).
Must be set to a value different from zero to start counting.
23-81 Energy Cost
Range:
Function:
1.00*
[0.00 - 999999.99 ]
Set the actual cost for a kWh in local currency. If the energy cost is changed later on it will impact
the calculation for the entire period!
23-82 Investment
Range:
Function:
0*
[0 - 999999999 ]
Set the value of the investment spent on upgrading the plant with speed control, in same currency
as used in par. 23-81
Energy Cost
.
23-83 Energy Savings
Range:
Function:
0 kWh*
[0 - 0 kWh]
This parameter allows a readout of the accumulated difference between the reference power and
the actual output power.
If motor size set in Hp (par. 1-21
Motor Power [HP]
), the equivalent kW value will be used for the
Energy Savings.
23-84 Cost Savings
Range:
Function:
0*
[0 - 2147483647 ]
This parameter allows a readout of the calculation based on the above equation (in local currency).
