Variable Speed Drives and Soft Starters
A wide range of fully tested, ready-to-connect motor control solutions, including variable speed drives (VSDs) and soft starters, are available. These solutions cater to diverse applications, from compact systems to custom-engineered designs, ensuring high-quality performance across all market segments.
What is a Variable Speed Drive?
A variable speed drive is an automation component that regulates the speed, torque, and rotational force of electric motors. It optimizes mechanical processes like packaging, material handling, and hoisting by enabling precise control of motor movements. This enhances efficiency, connectivity, repeatability, and maintenance.
Motor Controllers and Drives
These devices adjust motor outputs (speed, torque, position) by modifying power input. They can be operated manually, automatically, or remotely, ensuring flexibility in various applications.
Key Differences
– Variable Frequency Drive (VFD): Controls AC motor speed by adjusting frequency.
– Variable Speed Drive (VSD): Refers to both AC and DC drives, controlling speed by altering voltage (DC) or frequency (AC).
– AC Drive: Specifically improves process control and energy efficiency for AC motors.
Benefits of Variable Speed Drives
– Extends motor lifespan through controlled operation.
– Stabilizes power surges.
– Enables precise speed control during operation.
– Reduces peak energy demand and overall power consumption.
– Offers adjustable starting, stopping, and acceleration.
– Provides dynamic torque control and smooth motion for applications like elevators and escalators.
