FAQs
What is the difference between inverter drives and variable frequency drives?
The terms 'inverter drive', 'variable frequency drive' and 'variable speed drive' are often used interchangeably, however they all refer to devices designed to regulate motor speed by adjusting the frequency of the electrical supply. 'Variable frequency drives' is a term more commonly found in the USA.
What is the difference between an AC motor and a DC motor?
AC motors operate on alternating current from the grid where the direction of current flow changes periodically and are used for high and continuous power output, whereas a DC motor runs on direct current from batteries, rectifiers, or power supplies, with a constant flow of current in one direction, ideal for more precise speed control and variable torque.
What are the benefits of using an inverter drive?
Inverter drives optimise the performance of your motors and machinery for enhanced performance and energy efficiency. The inverter drive reduces energy consumption by controlling speed and matching motor output to actual load requirements, also allowing for smoother acceleration control and energy efficiency.
What are some common uses for an inverter drive?
Inverter drives are used for controlling the speed of pumps, fans and compressors in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, regulating conveyor belts, managing pump flow of liquids and adjusting the speed of machine tools.
Are inverter drives energy-saving?
Inverter drives offer significant energy savings. By operating motors at optimum speeds, the drive reduces energy consumption and waste, leading to lower maintenance and repair costs due to the reduction in mechanical and electrical stress being exerted over the motor. They are frequently chosen for their energy efficiency and environmentally-friendly properties.
