Variable Frequency Drives

AgendaThis session explains very brief overview

of Variable Frequency Drives; general introduction followed by industrial examples, applicable industries and

operations to be focused.

What is VFD?

What are the concerns?

Solutions

What is VFDElectrical/electronic pieceof equipment that variesthe speed of a 3 phase ACmotor.

Also Called:

VSD [ Variable Speed Drive]

ASD [Adjustable Speed Drive]

AFD [Adjustable frequency drive]

4

Basic VFD Operations

Convert AC power to DC power.

Filter DC power.

Invert DC power to variable voltage and variable frequency AC power

BHP = Brake Horsepower

N = Speed

Example

N1 = 3,550 N2 = (3,550 x .9) = 3,195

BHP1 = 3.53

BHP2 = [3.53 x (3,195/3,550)3 ] = [3.53 x (.9 x .9 x .9)] = (3.53 x .729) = 2.574

Normal Duty or Heavy Duty

If a normal duty overload characteristic is chosen, an oversize motor allows up to 110% torque performance for up to 1 min. in both CT and VT.

This function is used mainly for pumps and fans, since these applications do not require an overload torque.

If a heavy duty overload characteristic is chosen, a rated motor with the frequency converter obtains up to 160% torque for 1 min. in both CT and VT

What do You Need to Know to Select a Drive?

Current rating (A) of the motor

kW rating of the motor

Type of Machine (Application)

IP Rating

• IP20 = Clean Switch room, Switchboard

• IP54 = Dust/Damp Wall Mount

• IP66 = Washdown

Functionality

• How is the drive being controlled?

• I/O?

• Communications?.
