ELECTROMIZER:

Electromizer is basically a loss less reactance coil, which when introduced in a lighting circuit, helps in reducing the power consumption in discharge lighting devices like Mercury Vapor Lamps, Sodium Vapor Lamps and Fluorescent Tube Lights. It is a device, which applies a reduced voltage to discharge lighting devices, which results in a lower current flow through these. It is worthwhile to note here that the technical characteristics of discharge lamps are such that they allow reduction in power input without affecting the lumen output in the same proportion. Therefore, the percentage of energy saved is substantially more than the reduction in light output. It has been proven over the past so many years that such reduction in light level (which is very insignificant) is not detectable to the naked eye and does not compromise the comfort level of the user to any appreciable extent. ABOUT ELECTROMI ER:

ELECTROMI ER is basically a lossless reactance coil which when introduced in a lighting circuit, helps reduce the power consumption in DISCHARGE LIGHTING DEVICES like Mercury Vapor Lamps, Sodium Vapor Lamps, Fluorescent Tube Lights, CFLs & Metal Halide Lamps. It basically is a device which applies a reduced voltage to discharge lighting devices which results in a lower current flow through these. It is worthwhile to note here that the technical characteristics of discharge lamps are such that they allow reduction in power input WITHOUT affecting the lumen output in the same proportion. Therefore the percentage of energy saved is substantially more than the reduction in light output. It has been proven over the past so many years that such reduction in light level (which is very insignificant) is NOT DETECTABLE TO THE NAKED EYE and does not compromise the comfort level of the user to any appreciable extent.

It is also necessary to point out here that the ELECTROMI ER can be employed as an energy saver since, while resorting to energy saving, the device itself does not consume any energy (thus the term lossless).

The ELECTROMI ER delivers a minimum saving of 20% (subject to the load circuit being a segregated discharge lighting feeder and also the input voltage being not less than 240 VAC). Installed so far at many prestigious locations which include such names like L & T (Powai), Siemens, Cipla Ltd., Ispat Industries,

Godrej & Boyce, Crompton Greaves, Nocil, Supreme Group of Industries, Burroughs Welcome, Aarti Group of Industries Gujarat, Philips (Lighting Division), Bajaj Electricals Ltd., CIDCO (through contractors) and many many more. Multinationals like Coca-Cola (order for over 30 plant locations nationwide), Pepsi and Duracell as well as public sector undertakings like Bharat Petroleum Corpn. and IBP Company Ltd. have also installed ELECTROMI ER.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION: Generally the ELECTROMI ER is supplied to the end user in the form of a panel complete with standard switchgear items like Switch Fuse Units for input side, Ammeter with ASS, Voltmeter with VSS, LEDs for phase indication, Tap selector switch, By-pass Switch and any other switchgear - specially required by the customer - like MCB, MCCB, SFU at output, Automatic tap selection feature, KWH meter (analogue or electronic type), timer, ventilation fan/s etc.. The panel is made out of 14 /16 gauge CRCA sheets duly powder coated for long life and corrosion resistance. The workmanship is of the highest quality with all internal cabling done to meet or exceed accepted standards in terms of bunching, glanding, lugging, ferruling, channeling, insulating and bolting / termination. Similarly, only the best brands of switchgear / cables like L & T, Siemens, GE-Alstom, Asian, Switchon, Polycab, Finolex, Automatic Electric, Meco, Enercon, etc. Special attention is also paid to incorporation of safety norms as defined in relevant standards. We are glad to mention here, that ours is an organisation that is always striving for continuous technological improvement in our product. Hence, keeping in tune with time, we have developed a highly sophisticated model of ELECTROMI ER called the Intelligent model. This model employs our proprietory electronic microprocessor based monitor cum controller `SUPER MONTROLLER MARK I which features automatic ON & OFF, automatic tap changing and bypass, automatic monitoring of electrical parameters (like voltage, current, power factor, KW and KWH) of the load being fed by the ELECTROMI ER with data download facility and analysis software for PC. This unit will not have a separate Voltmeter or Ammeter or LEDs for phase indication since all these will be provided in the SUPER MONTROLLER.

The ELECTROMI ER is a fit and forget type virtually maintenance free equipment and does not require any special attention except routine servicing / cleaning etc.

APPLICATIONS OF ELECTROMI ER:

ELECTROMI ER finds applications in all industry since lighting is an integral part of every activity. Typical areas where ELECTROMI ER is employed are shop floors, plant lighting, administrative blocks, toilets, lobbies, corridors, storehouses, laboratories, streets, highways and any other locations where discharge lights like sodium vapor lamps, mercury vapor lamps, Metal Halide lamps and fluorescent tube lights are used.

WHY ELECTROMI ER? As explained earlier, the ELECTROMI ER is basically a device which applies a reduced voltage to the lighting devices. A reduced voltage can also be applied by using conventional equipment like step down transformer, auto transformer, CVT, Voltage Stabilizer etc. However, what is important to note here is that such equipments,

while managing to save energy consumption in the lighting devices, will also lose fair amount of energy within themselves. Here therefore, the efficiency of the equipment plays an important role.

The ELECTROMI ER being what we refer to as a LOSSLESS REACTANCE COIL, boasts an efficiency of BETTER THAN 99.4% virtually over the ENTIRE LOADING RANGE. We have tested this feature of

Z ELECTROMIZER are well below 0.6%. Obviously, therefore, it consumes negligible amount of power itself and
ELECTROMI ER coil at Central Power Research Institute (C.P.R.I.), Bhopal. Thus, the losses within the practically delivers ALMOST ALL THE INPUT POWER TO THE LIGHTING DEVICES CONNECTED TO THE OUTPUT but at a reduced voltage. Experiments were also conducted at many customer locations to verify this. Measurements of all electrical parameters like voltage, current, Watts, VA, VAR and PF were made at BOTH THE INPUT AND THE OUTPUT of the ELECTROMI ER. The observations showed that the savings as measured at the output were just about 0.1 0.35% more than those as measured at the input. From these observations it is clear that the efficiency measured up to almost a minimum of 99.65% and a maximum of 99.9%. An efficiency of this level is possible only with the help of a very special design, highly superior engineering inputs, best quality of material and workmanship. In the market today, there are a number of SIMILAR SOUNDING PRODUCTS which, we are sure however, do not measure up to the ELECTROMI ER on any count. Here, one must realize that use of any device like a standard transformer WILL RESULT IN ENERGY SAVING. However, the ELECTROMI ER is likely to deliver MUCH BETTER SAVINGS (TYPICALLY, 5 15 % HIGHER IN ABSOLUTE TERMS AND ABOUT 30 50 % HIGHER AS COMPARED TO OTHER DEVICES).

TECHNICAL APPLICATION NOTE ON ELECTROMI ER

The ELECTROMI ER is a device specially made for applications on DISCHARGE LIGHTING DEVICES only. Such discharge lights commonly used in industry are in the form of FLUORESCENT TUBE LIGHTS, SODIUM AND MERCURY VAPOUR & METAL HALIDE LAMPS. The technical characteristics of such discharge lamps are such that they allow a SUBSTANTIAL reduction in ENERGY INPUT without a PROPORTIONATE reduction in light output. From experiments conducted by us, it has been proved that for a typical power reduction (Energy Saving) figure of about 25%, the drop in light output is not discernible to the naked eye. This percentage would differ from brand to brand/model to model of the lighting device and would entirely depend on their individual characteristics. The various tests/trials conducted over the past over five years also confirm that the MINIMUM ENERGY SAVING (GUARANTEED) WILL BE NOT LESS THAN 20%.

The ELECTROMI ER is essentially a LOSSLESS REACTANCE (less than 1%) introduced in the lighting feeder which reduces the voltage applied across the lighting devices which are connected in parallel on the feeder. Such reduction in voltage within a certain range will generally improve the lighting device efficiency.

It may be observed that generally all such lamps which are rated for normal operation at 240 VAC single phase (which corresponds to the standard 415 VAC 3 phase line-to-line voltage) have a lower efficiency (i.e. lumens/watt ) at 240 VAC as compared to a lower voltage i.e. around 215-220 VAC. The extent of improvement in efficiency will depend upon various factors including the technical characteristics of the particular lighting device as well as its type and make. Thus the lumen output per watt of input energy, improves and as a consequence, the reduction in light input (due to a nett reduction in input energy) will not be directly proportionate.

Another very important advantage that will accrue due to installation of the ELECTROMI ER is the extension of life of your lighting devices. (It has been experienced that discharge lights fuse very frequently quite prematurely on account of the high supply voltage )

The ELECTROMI ER is manufactured according to customer specifications and is available from 3 KVA single phase upto 300 KVA Three Phase capacities.
