（ROSSLYN, VA）－NEMA很快將推出50Hz電機新節能標準。該50Hz標準結合60Hz電機作為NEMA Premium®電機計劃的一部分。NEMA Premium電機50Hz標準將使參與NEMA Premium電機計劃的生產商能夠在世界范圍內生產和銷售60Hz 和 50Hz NEMA Premium電機，還可使50Hz積分電機生產商執行NEMA Premium商標，這將鞏固NEMA Premium標準，使其成為一個重要的節能商標。 NEMA Premium電機被公認為是北美最主要的節能積分電機。其他標準組織已經廣泛采用或者響應了EMA MG1 標準，這項標準結合了60Hz電機。加入到MG 1 標準中的50Hz標準也期待廣泛接受。 NEMA Premium 節能電機計劃于2001年發起。最初，預計頭十年該計劃將節約足夠的電量，其功能等同于禁止1600萬輛騎車上路而節約的電量。通過NEMA發電機部門的高效能營銷以及運用電機解決方案（MDM）的協同努力，該計劃已經超越了預想的效果，MDM由能源效率協會（CEE），美國能源效率經濟協會和其他協會組織共同執行。 許多電力行業都認可NEMA Premium并且要求提供折扣指定安裝NEMA Premium電機，美國80％以上電機生產和銷售都由NEMA發電機部門成員來完成。 NEMA Premium 節能電機超越了1992年推行的能源政策法案規定的最低節能標準，影響某些1-200馬力通用積分電機的最低標準是基于NEMA標準的。 2001年該計劃推出之時，MG 1 方案董事長Dale Basso表示：“NEMA電機成員有節能技術方案滿足需要和工業用戶的需求，我們選擇將NEMA Premium計劃擴展至聯邦政府目前所規定的電機之外的產品范圍，以便全方位更好的服務于客戶?！盡G 1 工業促進委員會主席Rob Boteler也表示：“電機用戶采用NEMA Premium是對其最有益處的，這樣最大程度的提高電機效率，降低電量消耗成本，改進電機系統可靠性和性能。” 當被征求引進50Hz標準的意見時Boteler表示，“發展NEMA Premium 50Hz標準為50Hz電網電機用戶，同世界上60Hz電機領域用戶一樣，提供同樣的機會降低能源消耗和相應的生產成本。將50Hz NEMA Premium電機作為單機組件或者作為50Hz發電的電機驅動系統的組件將進一步全面降低二氧化碳，對此我們非常樂觀?！? Boteler將在第五屆全球電機系統能效論壇上（EEMODS） ‘07展出標準方案強調NEMA Premium計劃，論壇于6月10日至13日在中國北京舉行。EEMODS論壇在世界，尤其中國繼續尋找節能產品時及時開辦，NEMA北京辦事處將邀請中國所有關注節能電機的設計和電機系統的官方人員參加論壇，NEMA成員也將被鼓勵參加，論壇信息參見網站：www.eemods.org” 50 Hz電機新標準預計今年春天出版。 更多信息咨詢William Hoyt：703.841.3211或者wil_hoyt@nema.org。 original text [COLOR=#708090]NEMA Expands NEMA Premium Brand Energy Efficiency Program 23 Mar 2007 （ROSSLYN, VA） - NEMA, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association, will soon release a new energy-efficiency standard for the 50Hz motor. The 50Hz standard thus joins the 60Hz motor as part of the NEMA Premium® motor program. The NEMA Premium Motors 50Hz Standard will allow the manufacturers that participate in the NEMA Premium Motors Program to manufacture and market NEMA Premium motors in both 60Hz and 50Hz configurations worldwide. It will also allow manufacturers of 50Hz integral motors to license the NEMA Premium brand, which will solidify the standing of NEMA Premium as an important energy-efficiency brand. NEMA Premium Motors are recognized as the leading energy-efficient integral motors in North America. Other standards organizations have widely adopted or mirrored the NEMA MG 1 standard that incorporates 60Hz motors. The 50Hz tables added to MG 1 are also expected to be widely accepted. The NEMA Premium Efficient Electric Motor program was launched in 2001. At the outset of the program, it was estimated that in its first 10 years, the program would save enough electricity to serve as the functional equivalent to equal keeping 16 million cars off the road. The program has exceeded expectations through marketing efforts by the NEMA Motor and Generator Section, and cooperative efforts with Motor Decisions Matter （MDM）, a program run by the Consortium for Energy Efficiency （CEE）, the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy （ACEEE） and others. Many electric utilities recognize NEMA Premium and offer rebates for specifying and installing NEMA Premium motors. The members of the Motor and Generator Section represent more than 80 percent of U.S. production and sales of electric motors. NEMA Premium efficient motors exceed the minimum energy-efficiency standards required by the Energy Policy Act of 1992. The minimum standards imposed on certain 1-200 horsepower general-purpose integral motors are based on NEMA standards. When the program was announced in 2001, Dale Basso, the MG 1 Section chairman said, “NEMA motor members have the energy-technology solutions to address utility and industrial user needs. We have elected to broaden the NEMA Premium program to include motors outside the range now regulated by the federal government in order to better serve the customer in a comprehensive manner.” Rob Boteler, chairman of the MG 1 industry promotion committee, also noted, “It is in the best interests of motor users to specify NEMA Premium, thus maximizing efficiency, reducing electrical consumption costs, and improving motor system reliability and performance.” When asked for comment on the introduction of the 50Hz standard, Boteler said, “NEMA Premium 50Hz was developed to provide motor users on 50Hz grids with the same opportunity to reduce energy consumption and subsequent production costs as motor users in 60Hz areas of the world. We are optimistic that overall greenhouse gases will be further reduced by the use of 50Hz NEMA Premium motors shipped as stand-alone units or as a component of a motor-driven system for use on a 50Hz power supply. ”Boteler will present a paper highlighting the NEMA Premium program at the Energy Efficiency in Motor Driven Systems （EEMODS） ‘07 conference in Beijing, China, June 10-13. The EEMODS conference comes at a time when the world in general—and the Chinese in particular—continues to search for energy-efficient products. The NEMA office in Beijing will extend invitations to attend the conference to Chinese officials who show vital interest in energy-efficient motor design and systems. NEMA members are also encouraged to attend. Register for the conference at www.eemods.org. The new 50 Hz motor standard is expected to be published early this spring.
