Drives

For applications in pumping, fans, compressors, conveyers, rolling or any other application where either tight speed control or energy savings is required. We also offer help with harmonic reduction through filtering or special low harmonic drive options.

Enclosure options range from OPEN to NEMA 12 for standard wall mount, but we can also offer any enclosed option to meet your needs.

Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) and other non-linear devices can provide significant benefits to industry. They can also produce some unwanted side effects to the motor they are driving and to the system they are connected to. We can offer many solutions depending on the particular situation. In front of VFDs it is usually recommended to have some form of choke or line reactor. Some VFDs come with these devices built in. For many others, it is necessary to add them in front of the drive. Products offered to solve this problem can be as simple as adding 3% - 5% impedance line reactors. More complex solutions would involve using active filters or harmonic traps.

Motors also require special attention when used on VFDs. VFDs can cause motors to heat up, become noisy and also put extra stress on windings when they are installed far away from the drive (a phenomenon called voltage wave reflection). These issues, if left unchecked, can lead to premature motor failures. The solution is simple by installing output PWM filters. There are a few different types of output PWM filters available. We stock many of them and they can be ready for pickup.
