A variable frequency drive is an electronic device that allows you to start, stop, and control the speed of a three phase motor. It is also a motor starter as it is equipped with overload protection. Read more »
What is the difference between a 'new surplus' motor and a 'factory new' motor?
Our New Surplus electric motors and drives are new and unused overstock or discontinued items offered at lower prices and come with our 90-day warranty.
Factory New products are competitively priced and come with a manufacturers warranty.
Variable frequency drives (VFDs or inverters) now play an important part in major industry.
Within the last 10 years they have been perfected to control and vary the speed of 3 phase electric motors. They serve many purposes, besides speed control. Homeowners and hobbyist alike, who have lathes or milling machines with a 3 phase motor, usually don't have 3 phase power to operate. These VFDs (instead of using a rotary phase converter) can now be used to convert single phase power to 3 phase power. Read more »
VACON® 100 INDUSTRIAL is full of features and dedicated for a wide range of constant power/torque applications. The easy-to-use and robust motor controls improve the reliability and efficiency of all AC motor types, including induction and permanent magnet and synchronous reluctance motors.
Integrated RS485 and Ethernet interfaces support all major industrial protocols making VACON 100 INDUSTRIAL easy to incorporate into all major control systems. The built-in PLC functionality enables integration of new functionality into the drive. Functional safety is improved with Safe Torque Off, which prevents the motor from generating torque on the motor shaft, Safe Stop 1 and ATEX-certified motor over-temperature protection.
Features and benefits
Easy integration with plant automation due to extensive range of fieldbus options.
High reliability in challenging environments as a result of conformal coating
Extended drive lifetime thanks to film capacitors
No additional accessories are required due to integrated RFI filters and DC chokes
