Rotating equipment

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Under Rotating Equipment is rotatably driven understands equipment in technical installations. The term is occasionally used by maintenance engineers and operators in German as well. Rotating equipment includes pumps , fans , compressors and turbines . Many of these units are driven by electric motors and, in contrast to other electrical equipment such as B. the measurement, control and regulation technology to a large extent for the total energy consumption of the systems and is therefore in the discussion of energy efficiencyof technical systems are summarized under this collective term. The Association of German Mechanical and Plant Engineering, for example, organizes the “International Rotating Equipment Conference - Pumps and Compressors” once a year. Measures to increase the energy efficiency and system availability of rotating equipment are often similar and are offered by the same service providers (e.g. energy efficiency management and condition monitoring).
