Save electricity with Voltis
Voltage optimisation is a form of energy monitoring and a well established, proven technology. It works by controlling and maximising your power demand to meet the energy requirements of your electrical equipment. It also stops you from exceeding the amount of energy that is required. In essence, it allows you to use only what is needed, reducing the amount of energy you use and saving electricity.
By using voltage optimisation in your business, you will notice that your equipment utilises more energy than is required. Combating this will enable your business to help meet the UK’s climate change targets by partaking in a carbon reduction commitment.
Electricity supplied by the National Grid in the UK is approximately 242 volts. Our electrical equipment, however, is able to run at a supply of approximately 220 volts, allowing you to save electricity and help meet any Carbon Reduction Commitments.
Voltis, intelligent power saving
Our Voltis voltage optimisation unit is designed to save electricity and control the level of energy you receive. When your equipment receives electricity at a higher voltage level than is showing in the above diagram, it is being over supplied. The equipment will continue to operate but will deal with the excess supply by generating more heat or vibration. The result is your equipment will wear out faster. As well as saving you money on your electricity usage, Voltis electricity usage monitors will reduce the rate at which you need to replace worn out equipment.
Voltis gathers the excess energy and converts your incoming mains supply into an amount that your equipment will require to run effectively. As an electricity usage monitor, Voltis will allow you to save money, help you meet your Carbon Reduction Commitments, save electricity and reduce your maintenance costs.
Voltis and Ohm’s Law
Voltage optimisation can be explained by using Ohm’s Law on the basis that:
Power = Voltage2 / Resistance
If we say that resistance remains constant then the following comparison demonstrates how you can save electricity by using Voltis.
