The use of variable speed drives (VSDs) is often promoted as an electricity saving technology to control electric motors but what does this technology entail exactly? The British Pump Manufacturers' Association (BPMA) has published technical guidelines that were used as a basis for this and further articles on VSDs. The document, entitled "Variable Speed Driven Pumps: Best Practices Guide", can be viewed at : http://www.bpma.org.uk/filemanager_net/files/gpg344_variable_speed_best_practice_for_pumps.pdf </LI><LI><b>Abstract:</b> In 'n onlangse uitgawe van die SABI Tydskrif, is daar gekyk na die werkverrigting van sentrifugale pompe, wat algemeen in die landbou sektor gebruik word. In die wintermaande, is elektrisiteitstariewe ho&#235;r, en oorweeg watergebruikers dikwels nuwe tegnologi&#235; wat die belofde inhou om kragkostes te bespaar. Die gebruik van veranderlike spoed aandrywingstelsels, of sogenaamde "variable speed drives" (VSDs) is een van die tegnologi&#235; wat dikwels aanbeveel word om elektrisiteitsverbruik van motors te verminder, maar wat behels die tegnologie werklik? Die Britse pompvervaardigersvereniging (BPMA) het 'n dokument gepubliseer waarin riglyne vir die gebruik van VSDs verskaf word, waarop hierdie artikel gebaseer is. Die dokument, Variable Speed Driven Pumps: Best Practices Guide, kan verkry word op die internet by http://www.bpma.org.uk/filemanager_net/files/gpg344_variable_speed_best_practice_for_pumps.pdf </LI></UL> 2013-05-17T07:27:59Z http://reference.sabinet.co.za/webx/access/electronic_journals/sa_bimag/sa_bimag_v5_n5_a15.pdf <UL><LI><b>Vol 5 Issue 5</b></LI> <LI><b>Publication:</b> 2013</LI> <LI><b>Page:</b> 24-25</LI> <LI><b>Abstract:</b> SABI company members </LI></UL> 2013-05-17T07:27:59Z http://reference.sabinet.co.za/webx/access/electronic_journals/sa_bimag/sa_bimag_v5_n5_a16.pdf <UL><LI><b>Author:</b> Arlow, Corne </LI><LI><b>Vol 5 Issue 5</b></LI> <LI><b>Publication:</b> 2013</LI> <LI><b>Page:</b> 26-28</LI> <LI><b>Abstract:</b> This tutorial will teach you how to create a custom title block that will automatically add information like Scale, Date, Client Name, Job Description etc. on the drawing.
