AC Drives, also known as Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), control the speed and torque of electric motors by varying voltage and frequency.
Low Voltage AC Drives Voltage: 200 – 690V
Power: 0.25 kW – 1,000 kW
🔹 Applications: Industrial automation, conveyors, compressors, fans, pumps.
🔹 Features: Compact size, energy-saving, PID control, overload protection.
Medium Voltage AC Drives Voltage: 2.3 kV – 13.8 kV
Power: 200 kW – 50 MW
🔹 Applications: Mining, oil & gas, marine, large industrial motors.
🔹 Features: High power handling, regenerative braking, torque control.
Micro AC Drives
Voltage: 110V – 480V
Power: 0.1 kW – 5 kW
🔹 Applications: Small conveyors, fans, pumps, simple automation.
🔹 Features: Cost-effective,
plug-and-play, built-in motor protection.
Regenerative AC Drives Voltage: 200V – 690V
Power: 5 kW – 500 kW
🔹 Applications: Elevators, cranes, braking applications, wind turbines.
🔹 Features: Captures & returns energy, reduces heat, enhances efficiency.
