Knowing revolutions per minute is critical to adjusting power to match system requirements.
Distorted waveforms can cause wasteful heat, more frequent equipment failure and added costs from increased power usage.
Variable mixing can provide a homogeneous process volume, consistent temperature and improved biological contact.
How electronic speed control drives, adjustable frequency drives, magnetic drives and steam turbine drives work to achieve true variable speed control.
VFDs can extend life by reducing wear on equipment and motors.
Consider these methods to help protect systems from high-frequency current damage.
This technology can help reduce blockages, detect damaged equipment and avoid dry runs, thus reducing motor stress.
