1. VFD Basics and the Tower IQ June 10 th, 2013

2. The Rundown  Cerus Overview  VFD Basics  VFD Applications and Packages  Cooling Tower IQ  Questions

3. Corporate Overview Key Management Kent Holce, CEO Founder of Veris Industries & Sentrol Andre Perra, President Former VP of Marketing Schneider-Square D North America Timeline Founded in 2002 Shipping Product in 2003 BAS Product Released in 2005 HVAC Channel Development, up over 30%

4. Motor Controls Hierarchy Magnetic Starters Full-Voltage, Non-Reversing (FVNR) Starters –100% Full Speed – On/Off –Efficient for Low HP Soft Starters Reduced Voltage Starters –Ramp Up/Down to 100% - Time-based ramping (with limits) Variable Frequency Drives Adjustable Speed/Frequency –User-defined speed settings –Programmable presets for specific operational requirements

5. HVAC Starter Applications Pump Applications:  Lead/Lag Pumping Systems  Circulating Pumps  CT Spray Pumps Fan Applications:  Supply Fans  Exhaust Fans  Return Fans  Air Handlers  Cooling Tower Fans

6. Drive Basics Typical Variable Frequency Drive Configuration Variable speed is used to replace inefficient mechanical regulator devices such as valves, dampers, clutches, etc. Variable Speed Variable Frequency (PWM) Sensor Output (CO, Temp, Etc) Appropriate Feedbacks Utility Power Process Reference VFD

7. Why Use Variable Frequency Drives? –Reduced Energy Consumption –Improved Process Control / Efficiency –Increased Product Quality / Reduced Maintenance –Expanded Automation / Integration –Broader Equipment Flexibility / Versatility –Increased Reliability / Availability –Reduced Energy Consumption –Improved Process Control / Efficiency –Increased Product Quality / Reduced Maintenance –Expanded Automation / Integration –Broader Equipment Flexibility / Versatility –Increased Reliability / Availability

8. Applications, Fans and Blowers Variable Speed - Power Requirement Large decrease in power requirement for relatively small decrease in flow

9. VFD Cost Savings www.cerusind.com/ VFDEstSavingsCalc.asp Example: - 40 HP VFD 460/3 - Average usage of 3,500 Annual Hours - Average Speed usage of 50 to 60% - High Efficiency Fan - $0.07 ($/kWh) Utility Rate Yeilds: - 43,000 kWH/Year Saved - $3,046 in Annual Savings Drive Cost - $5,000 Utility Rebate - $2,500 Months to Payback – 10 Months!
