From Fenner Drives
With energy prices soaring, efficiency is the name of the game when it comes to battling the costs of keeping cool. During an energy audit, efforts to increase efficiency often focus on better sealing, managing replacement air, more efficient motors, sophisticated electronic controls or other high tech solutions that improve the situation but offer lengthy returns on your investment. In this struggle to squeeze every BTU out of each kilowatt hour, auditors tend to overlook, trivialize or completely ignore climate control fan drive systems as an opportunity to make significant efficiency gains and achieve cost savings. On many AC units, the drive system often utilizes the popular V-belt to transmit power from the motor to the fan and/or compressor. Some companies would have you believe that this well-established power transmission system is outdated and inefficient, suggested the path to increased efficiency is with a synchronous belt drive.
