What is a VFD, and what are the benefits?

A variable frequency drive (VFD) is a type of motor controller that drives an electric motor by varying the frequency and voltage of its power supply.

A VFD control panel brings together a VFD and other electrical devices inside a common enclosure that protects the equipment from other electrical and environmental factors.

The use of a VFD has multiple advantages but is not limited to the following:

  • Fully Adjustable Speed
  • Controlled Acceleration and Deceleration
  • Torque Control
  • Self-Diagnostics and Communication
  • Controls the Starting Current
  • Reducing Energy Usage
  • Extended Equipment Life and Reduced Maintenance
