Reduce electricity use by 60 %
Ventilation is the biggest power guzzler in pig houses, responsible for approximately 80 % of the total energy consumption. With a PM motor from SKIOLD that can be adapted to all types of ventilation systems, it is, however, possible to reduce energy consumption by a minimum of 60 % compared to a traditional Triac or frequency motor.
The result is documented through multiple tests, for example at the Anneløv farm in Vallåkra in Sweden that has 950 sows and specialises in piglets. Here tests show that the installation of new PM motors has reduced energy consumption by 60 % over a period of 1,5 years compared to the pig house’s existing motors from 2009.
