OVERVIEW

According to American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE), when utilities and other groups discuss ―energy efficiency as a resource,‖ they are defining efficiency as an energy resource capable of yielding energy and demand savings that can displace electricity generation from coal, natural gas, wind power, and other supply- side resources. Investments in energy efficiency and the resulting resource benefits are factored directly into utility energy resource decision making about investing in new resources and operating existing systems.

Defining efficiency as a resource and integrating it into utility decision making is especially critical because of the clear resource cost advantage of energy efficiency. Energy savings from customer energy efficiency programs are typically achieved at 1/3 the cost of new generation resources. Efficiency programs can also reduce the need to install, upgrade or replace transmission and distribution equipment.

BLOWER REPAIR

Blower is critical to manufacturing operations as there will be a severe impact to production in case of breakdown. ALPS MSI has the expertise in the repair and maintenance of blowers since 1996 utilizing the technology of vibration analysis to diagnose any mechanical problems. Such as; Bearing or lubrication problems, resonance, unbalance, or misalignment.

ALPS MSI had maintained all major blowers of San Miguel Yamamura Asia Corporation in Imus, Cavite since 1998.

Below is a sample of vibration results of YB3 MCB blower that experienced severe vibration due to resonance and unbalance problems.

The Value of your Money 

 1.  Reduce energy, operating & maintenance cost; 

 2.  Increase equipment reliability and availability; and 

 3. Peace of mind

ENERGY EFFICIENCY LUBE

The more there is friction on the rolling element of bearing; motor exerts more power thereby increase your energy consumption. Suitable and correct amount of lubricants feed into the bearing will lessen friction, reduces load (HP), and make the whole drive system more efficient.

Bearing failure is a major cause of equipment downtime in today‘s industrial environment, most often resulting from improper lubrication. Improper lubrication scenarios include the contamination of the lubricant by dust, dirt and moisture, inadequate amounts of lubricant applied to the bearing, and/or over-lubrication of the bearing.

Each bearing failure directly impacts the production cycle. While bearings can be expensive, replacement cost alone is often miniscule compared to lost production and the cost to repair the damage.

Fig 1 shown that 51% of motor failure is caused by bearings. This is our experience in the repair of motors.

According to a recent study as shown in Fig. 2, 15% is caused by insufficient lubrication; 5% liquid contamination; 20% solid contamination (grease container exposed to environment not properly covered or sealed).

Contamination is caused by foreign substances getting into bearing lubricants or cleaning solutions. These include dirt, abrasive grit, dust, steel chips from contaminated work areas and dirty hands or tools.

Why, in the age of technology, is this a problem? It is because many bearings are still lubricated manually. No matter how diligently a maintenance staff adheres to a lubrication schedule, it is a difficult task. Because employees are expected to manage multiple responsibilities in the lean environment of today‘s plants, it is common that proper lubrication is not considered a priority.

Solutions:

Use the     appropriate type and correct amount of lubricant, avoid grease loss, and     follow appropriate re-lubrication intervals.

Filter     the lubricant using automatic lubricators and clean work areas, tools,     fixtures and hands to reduce the risk of contamination.

Automatic Lubrication for Manufacturing Applications

ATS Electro-Lube manufactures self contained single-point and multi-point automatic lubrication products that provide effective, dependable lubrication for manufacturing equipment of all types. Our self-contained mechanical lubricators can deliver up to two full years of continuous lubrication, and can be installed almost anywhere—including remotely, as much as 30‘ from the lubrication point. Our devices are a safe, efficient alternative to daily manual lubrication.

We also offer a variety of accessories, including mounting brackets, control options and power options. ATS‘ motor-driven units, the ULTIMATE, TITAN, OILER and JACK series can all lubricate multiple points with a single unit via distribution blocks. Our TITAN, OILER and JACK units are refillable, for added convenience.

ATS‘ innovative auto lubers are ideal for bearing lubrication, engine lubrication, and any other machine lubrication needs your manufacturing processes may have. Our automatic mechanical lubricators deliver a reliable, consistent solution for any machinery that requires regular lubrication.

SYSTEM ANALYSIS

Vibration Analysis

Unscheduled downtime may cost millions of pesos per hour. Fortunately, modern vibration analysis equipment and software predict developing problems so that repair happens before disaster strikes.

ALPS MSI has the expertise and license to conduct vibration analysis with end result of providing Reliability Improvement, Condition Monitoring and Precision Maintenance

Case Study: Pump

The pump is brand new and operational 2008. In August 12, 2009 equipment owner hired our services to conduct Proactive Reliability Maintenance – Vibration Analysis. Below is the screenshot of the vibration results.

We recommended inspection why bearings were failing in spite that it was still considered brand new. In early part of April 2010, equipment owner called our attention that pump casing cracked as show in Figure 1.

Further inspection revealed as follows:

Defective Pump Inboard Bearing     No. 7314 BEJ single

Defective Pump Outboard Bearing     no. NU 314 ECJ/C3.

Damaged oil seals.

Mechanical seal condition was     still good.

Action taken:

Re-machine the shaft to the     required interference fits that will fit two pieces of 7314 BECBJ arranged     backto-back. Aligned motor and pump shaft using Fixturlaser NXA Alignment     System.

Energy Efficiency Solutions

Clean Energy Solutions: HVAC Systems

Philippines is one of the highest electricity rates in South East Asia. Each industrial facility finds ways to reduce its Energy, Operating & Maintenance Cost (E&OM).

ALPS MSI in partnership with Siemens Philippines, Inc. is committed to help industrial motor users in reducing its power consumption. Proper design that is suitable for its use and optimized for its consumption plays an essential role for the energy efficiency of motors and its drive systems. Modern drive technology offer an enormous saving potential of up to 70 percent. This is the case for new plants as well as for modernization’s (retrofits).

The key for this is in a targeted analysis of drive systems regarding their respective degree of utilization and energy consumption. The tailored selection or modernization of motors and converters based on this, often already pays off in a very short time through the energy cost savings achieved.

The decisive factor for the most efficient use of energy is in reducing the energy consumption to the real demand of the application. The path to this is via a comprehensive bundle of measures. For this purpose:

costs and benefits of possible savings are compared with each other,

the drive components are designed according to the requirements and

the ideal path to sustainable realization of the entire concept are formulated.

ALPS MSI offers industrial facilities our technical and financing for reducing your energy consumption.

Your benefits:

Efficient use of energy through installation of modern energy-saving motors;

Optimized use of energy through retrofit to variable-speed drives;

Adjusting the energy expenditure to the specific requirement of the application;

Improved motor start-up behavior;

Low network load due to fewer harmonics;

Reduced operational noise; and

Less wear and tear through adjusted speed.
