1 | Design & Technology:
EC motors use advanced technology, including a printed circuit board (PCB) and logic control, to optimize performance. This allows them to adjust power usage based on demand, leading to higher efficiency.
2 | Permanent Magnets:
EC motors use permanent magnets in their rotors, which reduce energy losses and improve efficiency. Shaded pole motors, on the other hand, rely on induction, which is less efficient.
3 | Variable Speed Control:
EC motors can operate at variable speeds, allowing them to match the required load more precisely. This reduces energy consumption compared to shaded pole motors, which typically run at a constant speed.
4 | Higher Efficiency Ratings:
EC motors can achieve efficiency ratings of up to 90%, while shaded pole motors typically have efficiency ratings of around 30%.
5 | Reduced Heat Generation:
EC motors generate less heat during operation, which reduces energy losses and improves overall efficiency. Shaded pole motors tend to generate more heat, leading to higher energy consumption.
6 | Longer Lifespan:
The advanced design and reduced wear and tear on EC motors contribute to a longer lifespan, further enhancing their efficiency over time.
