Variable Frequency Drive Panels

A VFD panel, also known as a variable frequency drive control panel, is a type of electrical control panel that is used to control the speed of an electric motor.

VFD panels are used in a variety of applications:

  • Conveyors
  • Pumps
  • Fans
  • Compressors
  • Machinery

VFD panels work by converting the incoming AC voltage to DC, then inverting the DC back to AC at a variable frequency. This allows the motor to be operated at a variety of speeds, which can provide a number of benefits.

  • Energy savings
  • Improved control
  • Smoother operation
  • Reduced noise
  • Increased lifespan of the motor

VFD panels are typically made up of the following components:

  • Rectifier: This converts the incoming AC voltage to DC.
  • Inverter: This converts the DC voltage back to AC at a variable frequency.
  • Protection devices: These protect the VFD panel and the motor from overloads, short circuits, and other electrical hazards.

VFD panels can be custom-made to meet the specific needs of an application. They are a versatile and effective way to control the speed of electric motors, and they can provide a number of benefits for businesses and industries.

Benefits of using a Kesher Automation’s VFD panel:
Energy savings : VFDs can save energy by allowing the motor to operate at the speed that is required for the application. This can lead to significant cost savings over the life of the motor.

Improved control : VFDs provide precise control over the speed of the motor, which can be important for applications that require smooth operation or precise positioning.

Smoother operation : VFDs can help to reduce the noise and vibration associated with electric motors. This can be important in applications where noise or vibration is a concern.

Increased lifespan of the motor : VFDs can help to extend the lifespan of the motor by reducing the stress on the motor’s bearings and windings.
