Overview

Water Related Services:
Impeccable water quality is important for a large number of
industrial processes. The production of extremely pure water is
therefore essential for many companies.
Industry is also required by law to process the waste water that
it produces.
Siemens Water Related Services ensure that water systems
are efficient and environmentally friendly which also assures
sustained corporate success.
Modernization & Optimization Services:
Enhancements, modernizations and optimizations of production
are on industry's agenda.
They are the most economical keys to achieving optimum
productivity in industrial manufacture and to assuring long-term
investment protection.
It is good to know that Siemens also offers competent service in
these areas.
Modernizing and optimizing electric motors and converters
The modernization of electric motors and converters – also
known as retrofitting – constitutes a major part of their product
life cycle. Retrofits serve to protect investments. They optimize
the availability, reliability and energy efficiency of installed
drives. The latter also has a beneficial effect on the environ-
mental impact of the company. Retrofits often lower the original
noise level and thus improve the working environment. Siemens
Industry Services offers an extensive retrofit program for both
Siemens and non-Siemens products. This program ranges from
simple conversions and upgrades through replacement of indi-
vidual components as far as project management for complex
retrofits. Once all the upgrade options have been exhausted, old
technologies can be replaced with state-of-the-art drives and
motors from the current product range. Under normal circum-
stances, neither method requires the functional scope of the
plant to be expanded or a change in the basic drive concept.
Modernization and optimization of electric motors:
•
Replacement of constant-speed motors with variable-speed
drives
- Energy saving
- Increased productivity and profitability
•
Functional replacement using new products
- Adaptation to existing equipment at low cost
- Energy saving through improved efficiency
•
Reproduction of older motors under license
- No complex requalification necessary
- 1:1 replacement possible
Modernization and optimization of converters:
•
Replacement of older converters with innovative models in the
low-voltage and medium-voltage range
•
Service benefits:
- Assured supply of spare parts worldwide
- Access to the latest know-how
- State-of-the-art diagnostics
- Easier software updates
•
Renewal of the control electronics
•
Retrofitting of water-cooled heat exchanger units
