Electroplating Rectifiers
Voltage variation is a common phenomenon and generally the voltage varies between 350 and 450 volts against normal required 400 volts during the day. The plating thickness varies proportionately with voltage variation. The plating process cycle is maintained by time duration in electroplating plant. So, when the input AC voltage is higher than normal, the plating thickness will be more than set standard thereby increasing the consumption of Nickel / Zinc.
| Nickel saving on 16 kg. per day consumption @3% | = 480 gms |
| Nickel saving per month .480 kg x 30 days | = 14.4 kg |
| Nickel saving per annum 14.4 kg x 12 months | = 172.8 kg. |
Result: Considering the nickle price Rs. 400/ per kg., annual savings in Nickel consumption will amount to Rs. 172.8 kg. x RS. 400/ = RS. 64,800/ per year approx.
Saving in Power Consumption
Similarly, net power saving per annum in the electricity bill due to 5% better efficiency with POWER'S rectifier equipment, will be as follows :-
Considering, 12v / 1000 better amps. capacity Rectifier running on 80% load will consume eleven units per hour. Suppose, plating plant works for 16 hrs. per day, total power consumption will be 176 units/ day.
| * Power saving on 176 units per day consumption @5% | = 8.8 units |
| * Power saving per month 8.8 units x 30 days | = 264 units |
| * Power saving per month 264 unit x 12 months | = 3168 units |
Result: Considering power charges @ Rs.2/ per unit annual savings in power consumption will amount to 3168 units x Rs. 2/- per unit = Rs.6336/ per year approx.
Some other features
All these features and quality parameters maintained in the construction of the equipment by our company adds to the cost. This one time extra cost for capital equipment with superior features is recovered within 3-4 months working of the equipment in relation to the following factors:
- Better efficiency and saving in power consumption
- Uniform quality of plating
- Savings in Nickel / Zinc consumption
- Negligible maintenance cost.
