Event Date/Time: July 21, 2021/12:00 pm -1:00 pm

This webinar will go through the basics of what accessories maybe needed for proper VFD control and power quality add-ons to improve motor driven system reliability.  Just buying and installing a VFD isn’t enough to ensure proper operation of a motor driven system in its application, nor does it protect upstream and downstream devices from power quality issues. Topics include:

  •    –   Drive accessories
    •       –   Operator panels, encoders, position encoders, communication devices
  •    –   Power quality accessories
    •       –   VFD cables and EMC terminations
    •       –   Input reactors and/or isolation transformers
    •       –   Output filters (reactors, dV/dt, sinusoidal, inductive chokes, etc)
  •    –   Impacts on AC motors
    •       –   Reduction in SF
    •       –   Winding failures
    •       –   Shaft voltage/bearing currents
    •       –   Turn down ratios

This webinar will be useful for anyone new to VFD applications, or anyone in need of a refresher course.
