A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) regulates the speed of a 3-phase AC electric motor by controlling the frequency and voltage of the power it delivers to the motor. These devices, also known as ...

For all their energy savings and control benefits, when VFDs fail, they bring motor-driven industrial operations to a dead stop. To avoid such situations, savvy engineers ensure drive-system ...

Designed for use on larger, more-powerful ac motor drives, five VFD cables extend the product range from Size 1 to 4/0 awg. The cables feature three stranded XLPE TC circuit conductors and two ...

AutomationDirect is a distributor offering thousands of industrial automation products for electrical control systems, including PLCs, operator interfaces, AC drives, motors, stepper systems, sensors, ...

Targeting ac-motor-drive applications, the symmetrical VFD (varying-frequency-drive) cables carry power from industrial ac-drive systems to ac motors. A dual-copper-tape shielding provides a ...

Today’s VFDs rely on fast-switching IGBTs that can generate steep dv/dt levels, voltage reflections across long motor cables, ...

Double-shielded Available in a four conductor configuration Rated for 600V to 1,000V TOPFLEX 620 VFD XLPE-insulated cable is suitable for applications with high voltage spikes and long cable runs due ...

Deciding where to put your drives requires more than just casual consideration. If your VFDs are failing prematurely, it may be because they're located in your motor control centers (MCCs). MCCs ...
