Mitsubishi‟s Inverter Energy Saving Tool is Free To Download
This program estimates electrical energy consumption for fan and pump applications when using an AC motor in combination with an Variable Speed Drive. The software compares the use of an Adjustable Speed Drive against conventional control methods such as outlet dampers, inlet vanes, throttling valves, etc.
The Energy Savings Estimator software consists of a user friendly interface that allows the user to estimate energy consumption of a new or existing system in a quick and easy way.
The software also calculates the amount of carbon that can be saved by using VSD technology. This data can then be printed to produce professional reports.

Compact switch connects logic module to Ethernet network
With the Logo! CSM 230 and CMS 12/24 compact switch modules from the Siemens Industry Automation Division, logic modules in the Logo! product range can be enhanced by additional Ethernet interfaces and connected flexibly to Ethernet networks.
The design of the new switch modules has been adapted perfectly to the Logo! series, enabling seamless and space-saving installation. The CSM 230 is suitable for operation at 110 and 230 volts AC, while the CSM 12/24 version operates at 12 and 24 volts DC. The power is supplied to both versions via terminal strip connections.
Logo! CMS 230 and Logo! CMS 12/24 each have four RJ45 ports. Three ports are located on the underside, and another port is set into the front panel for fast connection of programming and diagnostics devices.
The unmanaged switches can either connect two logic modules to each other, or they can offer connections for additional components such as human machine interface devices, displays, or programming devices (PG). Like the Logo! logic modules, the new switch modules are suitable for a host of applications in different sectors, and can also be used in stand-alone mode for connecting up any Ethernet devices.
