9MAY 2024CRYSTAL CROP PROTECTION LIMITED LAUNCHES SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMBHARAT BIJLEE GRANTED PATENTS FOR ITS MOTOR DESIGNSCrystal Crop Protection a leading agrochemical organization, announced its commitment to support the advancement of agricultural education and increasing women's participation. In a collaboration with the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences (NAAS), the brand has announced the launch of its progressive scholarship program tailored specifically for girl students who are pursuing higher studies in agriculture. NAAS, is a Delhi-based National Academy dedicated to Agricultural sciences. The initiative, launched in the honour of Mr Ankur Aggarwal's late mother Smt. Kanak Aggarwal, reflecting the commitment of Crystal Crop Protection Limited's MD, who was eager to extend the benefit of the scholarship to girl students pursuing agriculture courses.This special initiative promotes and encourages aspirations of next generation students by providing financial support and a plethora of opportunities to young women who are passionate about making a difference in the field of agriculture. The scholarship program will offer financial assistance to 21 girl students for pursuing graduation program in 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year and 4th year making a total of 84 scholarships every year.The scholarship program will not only provide financial aid but girl students will be able to take advantage of the college mentorship opportunities and network via organised events. They will also be mentored in their career development through workshops. Bharat Bijlee, a Mumbai-headquartered electrical engineering company, was granted patents in respect of the designs of its permanent magnet Premium Efficiency IE4 class and Ultra Premium Efficiency class IE5 motors. These motors are sold under the SynchroVERT® brand name.The patent for the IE4 motor design was granted in January 2024. This invention is formally titled Interior Magnet Rotors with Special Geometry for Improving Efficiency of Line Start Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors.The IE5 patent, granted in March 2024, is titled Interior Magnet Rotors with Modified Magnet Configuration for Redirecting Flux and Improving Efficiency of Line Start Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors to IE5 Level. The IE4 design uses internal permanent magnets oriented in the rotorso as to achieve IE4 levels as per IEC 60034-30, while the rotor design of the IE5 motor is an improvement of this concept that further improves efficiency to IE5 or Ultra Premium Efficiency class. Both designs offer Line Start capability as well as several superior performance features.Material and cost savings are also achieved. As the higher efficiencies are achieved in the same frame sizes as a standard induction motor, replacement of older inefficient motors is straightforward.These motors are presently available in outputs from 1.5 kW to 55 kW (IE4) and to 45 kW (IE5).Several thousands of the motors are already installed in a variety of applications, and have generated significant energy savings for their users.
