FREQUENCY
Variable-frequency drive (VFD) : is a system for controlling the rotational speed of
an AC electric motor by controlling the frequency of the electrical power supplied
to the motor.
Inverter drives.
VFD Applications:
Ventilations systems for large buildings,
Motors for Blowers & Fans ,
Pumps, Conveyor, Machine tool drives , Tractions, Lifts etc
Operating principle: ( SPEED CONTROL)

Parts and Operations of a Drive
1. Rectifier
3. Inverter
The 3-phase AC voltage goes into the rectifier section which is made up
of a group of gated diodes (silicon rectifiers or SCRs).
In this type of circuit, the DC voltage is 1.35 times the AC line voltage.

ENERGY SAVINGS ( WITH CONCERNED APPLICATION )
Motor-driven centrifugal pumps, fans and blowers offer the most dramatic energy-saving opportunities.
• Since they are not always operating at their full load the amount of energy you can save by reducing the current
to them as well as the amount of stress release on your motor is enormous and results in an energy efficient and
longer lasting system.

CONCLUSION
In addition to energy savings and better process control, VFDs can provide other benefits:
• A VFD may be used for control of process temperature, pressure or flow without the
use of a separate controller.
• Maintenance costs can be lower, since lower operating speeds result in longer life for
bearings and motors.
