For all their energy savings and control benefits, when VFDs fail, they bring motor-driven industrial operations to a dead stop. To avoid such situations, savvy engineers ensure drive-system ...

A Variable Frequency Drive regulates the speed of a 3-phase AC electric motor by controlling the frequency and voltage of the power it delivers to the motor. Today, these devices are becoming ...

When an application requires changes in motor speeds to meet its objectives, a variable frequency drive (VFD) is often the first thing that comes to mind. This is for good reason—VFDs are typically ...

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 ...

LUTZE has expanded its DRIVEFLEX VFD cable offering to include a 2,000 V option for the most electrically demanding applications. The new A219 series expands upon the existing A220 1,000 V series, ...

This article presents a reference design for driving a vacuum fluorescent display (VFD) using the MAX15005 power-supply controller in a flyback topology. The design obtains multiple output voltages ...

RICHMOND, IN – Belden CDT Electronics Division, a world leader in the development of specialty cable products for the industrial, commercial, broadcast and residential markets, announces the expansion ...

VFD sizing matches a drive’s current rating to motor amperage. Consider load type, torque requirements, and operating conditions to select a drive that prevents overheating and ensures long-term motor ...
