IG Watteeuw Romania
ENEF system implementation for energy consumption monitoring
"The collaboration between IG Watteuw and Quartz Matrix spans over 10 years already. We are happy to have a business partner, a collaborator, and not just a simple provider of business services. In addition to other solutions and services, we also opted for the energy management system, ENEF, developed by Quartz Matrix. With the help of an initial analysis, developed customizations, technical support and project management, we managed to implement a really useful solution, through which we successfully manage energy consumption"

CUMMINS
ENEF system implementation for energy consumption monitoring – product developed by Quartz Matrix
"At Cummins Romania, the equipment we own is diverse, and the consumption commensurate. We want to offer our customers the best solution in terms of operating cost and reliability. Quartz Matrix also came to us with the same proposal. They offered us a software at a reasonable price, which will optimize our costs regarding electricity consumption, but will also give us an overview of the consumption in our factory. Thus, we were able to identify areas with increased consumption, areas where anomalies occur, but we were also able to act on them in real time. Following the energy audit, 28 electricity monitoring points, 6 compressed air monitoring points and 2 natural gas monitoring points were installed. All the steps went naturally, I benefited from all the support from the team, and the improvements are visible."

BorgWarner
Monitorig electricity consumption using e-Net® - product developed by Quartz Matrix
The client carries out its activity in automotive components production and the control over the final production cost of the products represents a key element for the competitiveness in the market.
The customer needed a system that would provide real-time data on electricity consumption, so that he knew exactly how much the energy cost represented from the production cost.
For the control of electricity costs, we recommended the installation of the e-Net® system that monitors the energy consumption at distribution and equipment level. In 2011 the customer implemented the e-Net® system in the factory for 20 measurement points targeting the largest energy consumers. From year to year, convinced of the benefits achieved from the implementation of e-Net®, he extended the system to over 900 measurement points which currently fully monitor the electricity consumption of the factory. Thus, by using e-Net®, the client has achieved effective electricity costs management, known how much the energy cost represents from the production cost and streamlined electricity costs.
Within this project, Quartz Matrix provides project management for system extensions, as well as its maintenance within a service contract with guaranteed SLA 24/7.
SILCOTUB
Electricity and complex audit for SILCOTUB S.A. factories
Silcotub is part of Tenaris company - the world's largest pipe manufacturer. Silcotub is the most important Romanian manufacturer of small diameter seamless steel pipes used in various applications in the mechanical industry, automotive, oil and natural gas, chemical and petrochemical industry, energy industry.
"We confirm the quality offered by Quartz Matrix company in carrying out complex energy audits for the three SILCOTUB factories in Calarasi, Zalau and Campina.
A Quartz Matrix team was dedicated to making measurements, retrieving data from our installations, interpreting and analyzing them. As a result of the analysis performed, for each factory, a plan of energy efficiency measures was developed. For the three factories, we were proposed 15 measures that would lead to a total saving of 887 toe / year. Thus, we recommend Quartz Matrix to other companies for energy audits, too.” (Mihai Barbarosie, Energy Manager, Silcotub)
ARCTIC
Use of e-Net® solution for monitoring energy consumption
The factory knew a continuous modernization which involved the increase of equipment necessary in production and at the same time the increase of the production volume. Beyond the positive effects of modernization, it has led to the impossibility of tracking electricity consumption by sections and production lines. Thus, the factory needed a system that would provide real-time data on electricity consumption.
As a result of the energy audit performed by Quartz Matrix team, it was recommended to install an energy management system for the electricity distribution system to the production lines. The solution included a flexible structure for measuring electricity consumption, having a RS485 data network for: 27 electricity measuring points for distribution buses and power panels that have three-phase electronic meters, provided with RS485 serial communication.
It was installed e-Net® software application with remote access via web interface which connects to RS485 networks via IP addressable serial servers. Its installation was performed on a dedicated server, from the client's IT room.
For ARCTIC company, the implementation of e-Net® system brought only benefits and this is confirmed by the extension of the system with another 43 measuring points, a project carried out in 2016.
