The way we control the speed of fan motors or pump motors has tremendously changed in the past two decades with the introduction of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), aka variable-frequency controllers ...

A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) regulates the speed of a 3-phase AC electric motor by controlling the frequency and voltage of the power it delivers to the motor. These devices, also known as ...

In today’s world, motors are ubiquitous, powering everything from household appliances to industrial machinery. The importance of optimizing motor control for energy efficiency cannot be overstated, ...

More and more often, variable frequency drives (VFDs) are used for control of fans and compressors in HVACR systems. The benefits are well documented and industry acceptance is such that most electric ...

Honeywell and Danfoss are partnering to integrate variable frequency drive (VFD) technology with Honeywell's Experion Process Knowledge System platform to streamline motor control, reduce energy ...

Choosing the right motor and VFD type depends on a variety of factors, however, it is necessary to first look at how the characteristics of a motor change when the speed is reduced —Sponsored article ...

Experts examine the procedure of commissioning, running it up and checking it out, medium-voltage VFDs rated 250 hp (186.4 kW) and larger at a minimum 2.3 kV voltage level. Equipment commissioning is ...

Deciding where to put your drives requires more than just casual consideration. If your VFDs are failing prematurely, it may be because they're located in your motor control centers (MCCs). MCCs ...

According to MarketsandMarkets™, The Power Variable Frequency Drive market is projected to reach USD 7.08 billion by 2030 ...
