Variable Frequency Drive

Variable Frequency Drive

The Variable Frequency Drives are now a crucial part of the electricity sector. Within the last decade, the Variable Frequency Drives, AC Motor Drives, Pool Pump Motors, the Marathon Electric 3 Phase Motor, TecoWesthousing Distributor have seen major technological developments. They have been improved and the speeds can be controlled and can be changed in all the 3 phase motors. They are now being referred to as Variable Frequency Drives, inverters or adjustable frequency drives because of what they do and what can be done with them.

The variable frequency drives have very many uses beside their speed control purpose. They work well with lathe machines or the milling machines. These machines require 3 phase power, which many people do have or they cannot afford. The variable frequency drives have the ability to convert a single phase power to 3 phase power. This has always been done using the Rotary inverters, but they are very noisy if used at home since many people have basement workshops in their homes. The variable frequency inverters have replaced the rotary inverters because they are improved and do not make the loud noises, which rotary inverters do. The variable frequency drives are available in 115 and 230 volts single inputs.

The other noted advantaged on the variable frequency drives is that their power has reduced the consumption of electricity. Since they convert single phase power to 3 phase power, they have generally reduced the demand of electricity. When the variable frequency drives are purchases, a rebate is allowed. What the variable frequency drive does is it reduces the inrush current thus lowering the need for more power. With the current improvements, which have been made, the variable frequency drives allow the torque control at a lower speed.

There are various types of variable frequency drives but the two most popular of all are the dynamic braking and the remote keypads. These are in demand at many outlets. When purchasing any of these variable frequency drives, it is advisable to mention the applications that you get the appropriate torque. There is torque for the constant and the variable frequency drives so it is important to get the right one.

Another advantage of the variable frequency drives is that they can be used at homes as well as in the industrial sector. In the domestic sector or in homes, they are used along with pool pumps and in the industrial sector; they are used to crush the rocks in construction. The variable frequency drives are also used in metal wielding by those who do it in their own homes or those who do it for a living the garages.
