Leroy-Somer offers motor solutions to the users, installers and manufacturers of refrigeration equipment which are high-performance, compact and highly efficient: fixed-speed induction motors, high-efficiency motors, variable speed and, for peak productivity, the new Dyneo® permanent magnet solutions. This patented technology gives very high efficiency over the entire speed range, coupled with exceptional compactness, giving higher COP than with traditional solutions. This performance was demonstrated when J&E Hall International chose Leroy-Somer to drive its compressors. This major manufacturer of refrigeration equipment has just installed the refrigeration system for a new distribution centre belonging to Wm Morrison Supermarkets Plc. The energy savings have been estimated at about 45,000 euros over 4 years.
To facilitate precise preparation of cables and conductors utilised in the photovoltaic sector Weidmüller now proudly offers the practical "multi-stripax PV", the multifunctional cutting and stripping tool.
