Available LCC Settings

In order to provide the most accurate representation possible, users can make adjustments for the profitability analysis in the Available LCC settings area on the right side of the dialog.

 

Hinweis

If the Available LCC settings area is not visible in the Running costs dialog, it can be made visible and fixed using the BtnStecknadel button on the right edge of the dialog labeled Settings.

 

The following parameters can be defined for a profitability calculation:

 

hmtoggle_plus1Available LCC settings:

This field allows for selecting the LCC profiles stored in the database.

 
hmtoggle_plus1Energy price increase:

This value determines the average value of the forecast increase in the electricity price in the evaluation period. The default value here is a 6% increase.

 
hmtoggle_plus1Annual operating time:

This field allows defining the average annual operating time of the pump. The default value is 5600 hours.

 
hmtoggle_plus1Loading profile:

The Dialogauswahl button in this field opens a dialog window in which you can either select from predefined profiles or create your own profile. It is possible to add one or more operating modes to the profiles (e.g.: low load, partial load, full-load operation, night setback) or to remove them from the list of existing ones.

hmtoggle_plus1Night setback:

This option allows you to determine whether the calculation should consider a night setback, i.e. an automatic power reduction, for example in heating systems.

 
hmtoggle_plus1Correct operating hours in case of flow difference:

This option determines whether the calculation should include an adjustment of the operating time in case of a deviation of the specified flow.

hmtoggle_plus1Factor for repair in % of the investment amount:

This field specifies the percentage of the purchase price to be used as necessary maintenance costs.

 
hmtoggle_plus1Inflation rate (rate of price increases):

Defining the inflation rate allows the cost calculation to be adjusted for inflation and gives you a real estimate of the costs.

 
hmtoggle_plus1Interest rate (for investment):

Set the average interest rate in this field. This has an influence on the calculation of the amortization period.

 
hmtoggle_plus1Fuel rate:

This section allows you to store the fuel prices for pumps with combustion engines.
