New European Motor Regulations come into force on From 1 January 2015 and IE3 will become mandatory. Experienced motor users have seen all this before as you no doubt remember that back in 2011 the same ruling was applied to IE2 motors.

So does your business need to do anything?

The new regulations have been introduced to achieve one aim; to cut carbon emissions. Europe is under pressure to meet their own targets and needs to do what it can to avoid financial penalties.

Some industries see the upgrade process as a “waste of time and money”, but is it? The IE3 motor has been used in many applications over the past few years and has proven results in its energy saving capabilities. If you are running a significant amount of motors, an initial investment could reward you in the long term with reduced energy costs.

Having supported businesses through the IE2 changes in 2011, Sentridge understand the situation you are in. You can continue running your IE2 by introducing a Variable Speed Drive into your application, but that may not be the best solution.

At the end of the day, you want to achieve lower energy bills and enjoy peace of mind from reliable applications. Think about your own carbon emission targets. Isn’t now the perfect time to upgrade to IE3?
