In cooperation with Austin Energy and the City of Austin, Austin, Texas-based Ideal Power Converters (IPC) is demonstrating its low-harmonic, utility-friendly variable frequency drive (VFD) on a 15-hp ...

Single- and three-phase alternating current (AC) motor speed can be controlled by controlling the frequency of the voltage coming to it. Motor speed has a lot to do with the capacity of refrigeration ...

AC induction motors are widely used in industrial applications due to their reliability and low maintenance needs. Comprised of a stator and rotor, these motors convert electrical energy into ...

Increasingly common, variable frequency drives (VFDs) are used to control motor speed elevating the frequency of power pulses/sec fed to motors for faster Increasingly common, variable frequency ...

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 ...

Motors account for at least half of the energy consumed in the U.S. Selecting the right control method for an application lets the motor run most efficiently while maximizing torque and overall ...
