Short description
Variable frequency drives (VFDs) and softstarters control motor speed and start-up smoothly. They allow equipment to operate only at the required power level.
What it includes
- Speed control of electric motors
- Reduced energy use at partial loads
- Lower mechanical and electrical stress
Why it matters
Controlled motor operation reduces electricity demand and fuel consumption.
