Automations Directs Variable Frequency Drives – or VFD’s - are great for accurately controlling AC motor speed and direction from a quarter to 300 horse power and for monitoring motor performance to help you anticipate and prevent failures before disaster strikes. And the best part? Variable Frequency Drives pay for themselves on your electric bill because reducing the speed of a motor reduces power – and reducing power saves money, month after month. AND,since VFD’s hide the motors power factor from the power company you don’t pay a premium for electricity you aren’t using! So whether you need to control the speed and direction of an AC motor, Manage the acceleration and deceleration of heavy loads to manage the inrush current and electrical and mechanical stress of the motor, add a braking resistor for faster motor deceleration, add line and load reactors to help protect your VFD, or even add an EMI filter to comply with CE requirements... You can do it, with Automation Direct.
