Introduction<br />

Energy management for industrial plants<br />

Identify<br />

Energy management is a continuous process, which constantly reduces<br />

7<br />

the plant's energy needs, thus reducing operating costs and conserving<br />

the environment. The key to this is the perfect interaction of hardware<br />

and software (within the scope of <strong>Totally</strong> <strong>Integrated</strong> <strong>Automation</strong>) for<br />

8 detecting, visualizing, and analyzing energy currents.<br />

The programs determine potential savings at all levels of factory and<br />

process automation, which can reduce energy needs in a lasting and<br />

documented way by means of improved configuration or the energy-<br />

9 optimized design of products and systems.<br />

Energy management of <strong>Totally</strong> <strong>Integrated</strong> <strong>Automation</strong> consists of three<br />

phases: Identify, evaluate, and implement.<br />

10<br />

Identify<br />

In the identify phase, a plant's energy flows are measured, visualized<br />

and analyzed using suitable hardware and software. This provides<br />

11<br />

energy transparency in the plant, which allows heavy consumers of<br />

energy to be identified.<br />

The measuring is done by measuring instruments such as the 7KM PAC<br />

12<br />

or communication-capable switching and protective devices of the<br />

SENTRON family with integrated measuring technology such as the 3WL<br />

and 3VL circuit breakers.<br />

13<br />

The SIMATIC powerrate or powermanager energy management software<br />

takes over the visualization and analysis.<br />

Using the cross-vendor PROFIenergy profile of PROFIBUS & PROFINET<br />

14 International (PI), measured value data can also be recorded directly at the<br />

load and used for subsequent optimization.<br />
