Expertise in the field of Inverters

Frequency Inverters for industrial systems

Frequency Inverters are used in a variety of industrial applications for precise control of motor speed, torque and start-up ramps. By precisely adapting the motor power to the actual demand, Frequency Inverters enable precise control, extend the service life of the machines and reduce operating costs. By minimizing energy consumption, Frequency Inverters make a significant contribution to sustainability in the industry.

The main task of the Frequency Inverters is to regulate the speed of electric motors by changing the ratio of voltage and frequency. This enables an infinitely variable speed range without any loss of torque. Frequency Inverters increase the system efficiency of installations by reducing the energy consumption and power loss of electric motors, especially in the partial load range.

What you should know

Advantages of Frequency Inverters

Frequency Inverters offer numerous advantages, depending on the application and individual requirements:

R

Energy efficiency

The use of a Frequency Inverter significantly reduces power consumption and power loss in the partial load range, which considerably improves the overall efficiency of a system.

R

Noise reduction

Compared to direct mains supply, Frequency Inverters enable quiet and gentle operation of electric motors without putting excessive strain on the insulation of the winding or the motor bearings.

R

Optimum operating point

The precise controllability of Frequency Inverters makes it possible to achieve the optimum operating point for the application, ensuring a good balance between performance and energy efficiency.

R

Digital monitoring, analysis and control

Through integration into an intelligent network, Frequency Inverters can be continuously analyzed, monitored and controlled digitally.

R

Modular design

Frequency inverters can be equipped with various additional modules and interfaces to adapt the functions precisely to the requirements of the application.

R

Low life cycle costs

The acquisition costs only account for a comparatively small proportion of the total life cycle costs. Savings in energy consumption and the reduction of wear and performance losses help to relativize the costs over the life cycle.
