VOLTAK VFD Panels – Advanced Speed and Motor Control Solutions
VOLTAK's Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Panels, also known as VFD Control Panels, are sophisticated systems designed to regulate the speed and operational efficacy of electric motors and feed pumps. These panels are essential in applications requiring precise speed control, such as drilling, pumping, conveyors, and compressors.
How VFD Panels Work
VFD Panels work by converting fixed voltage and frequency of input power to a variable output, enabling control over AC induction motors. Unlike traditional methods that control motor speed via voltage, VFDs adjust the frequency, maintaining a constant flux density and offering superior control.
Key Benefits of VFD Panels
Energy Efficiency:
By optimizing motor speeds as per demand, VFDs significantly reduce power consumption, making them a sustainable choice for energy-intensive industries.
Closed Loop Control:
Ensures constant motor speed irrespective of load changes or input disturbances like voltage fluctuations, enhancing process accuracy.
Reduced Starting Current:
VFDs limit the starting current of induction motors, minimizing the risk of exceeding nominal current ratings and reducing stress on electrical systems.
Smooth Operation:
VFDs provide smooth start/stop capabilities, reducing mechanical and thermal stress on motors and associated systems.
Improved Power Factor:
The inbuilt power factor correction in VFDs negates the need for additional correction devices, optimizing power utilization.
Ease of Installation:
Factory wired and pre-programmed VFDs offer convenient installation and maintenance.
