Frequently Asked Questions About EBM Technology
- What is the primer product of the unit (electric power, heat energy, etc)?
- Network electric power and 80-90 ‘C hot water or 80-90 ‘C hot air which are suitable for heating or cooling using a heat exchanger system.
- Are we speaking about a concrete unit or other units (gas engine, gas turbine, etc.)
- The EBM Unit operates as a driving unit producing shaft torque or operates as an electric generator when the rotor is driven by the flux. The EBM Unit produces heat in both operation and modes. The unit can have many kinds of geometrical and mechanical constructions.
- What is the capacity, output power of the unit? The rating power of the machine is fixed or can be varied according to the demands?
- Out power range: Minimum - 1000kW Maximum- 500 MW All of the units are able to operate between zero and maximum designed output power
- What is the voltage?
- It is up to the user to specify what type of voltage he wants.
- What kind of fuel is used (gas, bio, oil, coal, agricultural waste, etc.)?
- The fuel of the units is the magnetic flux produced by the unit and or by an outside magnetic field, which exercised mutual influence with the active iron of the unit producing driving torque on the shaft of unit. This is provided by the special geometry of the unit.
- What is the emission factor of the unit? What kind and how big environmental investment should be taken into consideration?
- Emission factor is zero. There is no toxic emission. No environmental investment is needed.
- What is the voltage level when the unit works as an electric power generating unit?
- How can you connect it to the existing electric network? The unit works on existing voltage levels producing electric power.
- What is the working safety of the units?
- The working safety of the EBM Units corresponds to the standard electric rotating machines, because they are built from conventional mechanical parts.
- What kind of plant operation mode are they designed (continuous, for 366 days/ year or periodical)?
- The unit work and usable in both 366 days/year and periodical operation mode.
- What is the frequency of service and service costs?
- Normal wear and tear is pre-designed preventive service with low cost approximately once every 15-20 years.
- Will the unit be installed as a single machine or a machine group in order to fulfill demands.
- Depending on the project needs it can be installed as a single machine or in a machine group.
- What type of profits should your business, building, and company see and how fast will your investment turn around be seen?
- The pay back capital is usually less than 3 years while you slash your currant electric bill by at least half. The new income stream if energy is sold back to your company, to your tenants, and to the grid is additional income that begins instantly.
- How long does it take from ordering to installation and running of unit?
- Time varies.
