Energy Management with SICOTRONIC - balances Price and Performance

SICOTRONIC systems have been improving energy efficiency and creating huge savings for our clients for over 15 years. If your installation has thermoelelectric appliances using large amounts of electric power and bills with a peak load billing system we can use the thermal energy storage capability of your equipment coupled with our control system to reduce your total power consumption cost from 5 to 25%.
The SICOTRONIC system allows facility management to control the energy input to all facility appliances, particularly those which idling and not under a great production heat. By consciously balancing these active and inactive loads, the SICOTRONIC not only optimizes the peak power load, it actually optimizes and reduces the average power load. Whether boiling, cooking, roasting, baking, washing or rinsing, the system matches all power needs of your kitchen and all its ancillary facilities and ventilators to the optimum. SICOTRONIC modules minimize your cost and provide that extraordinary short payback period.


The effective way
to reduce energy costs

Cuting the peak load

For example:

In one large kitchen with 12 medium-sized, electro thermal appliances (i.e. tilting pan, boiling pan, combisteamer, oven, dishwasher, etc.) and 3 constant energy consuming appliances (i.e. ventilators and hot food counters or steam tables) the average annual electrical usage was about 225,000 kWh with peak loads of 150 kW. After installing the SICOTRONIC 4000 system and optimizing the loads the average use dropped 5% to 210,000 kWh and peak loads dropped to less than 100 kW. This produced power cost savings of over 25% and paid for the SICOTRONIC system in less than 2 years. After the pay back, all the cost reductions were savings in their pockets, year, after year, after year.
