Variable Frequency Drive
What are the additional features of VFD?
Additional features of VFD’s are soft start/stop, braking, and motor protection.
What are Harmonics?
They are the distortions in the AC waveform that is produced by the VFD.
What are the types of motors we can use in VFD?
Motors like AC, Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM’s), and brushless DC motor can be used.
What are the safety considerations?
We should take Precautions like training on safety practices and knowing all the standard protocols.
Variable Frequency Drive
Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is the type of AC motor drive that controls the speed and the torque. It can control the speed by changing the frequency of the current. They can also control the speed and torque of the motor by changing the voltage. They are the motors of the modern world. Most industries are now shifting to use VFD as they are easy to use and can be controlled by software. VFDs are not only used in large-scale industries but also used in small-scale industries as well.
