Premium-efficiency motors aren’t<br />

just more efficient, but also…<br />

◊ Have efficiency curves flatter across the load<br />

range, hence over integrated varying loads<br />

◊ Typically have higher power factor (also flatter<br />

across the load range), reducing distribution<br />

losses and capacity needs<br />

◊ Run cooler for lower resistive losses and longer<br />

life (each 10 C˚roughly doubles expected life)<br />

◊ Cooler operation also extends grease life for<br />

longer lubrication intervals or less downtime
