Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)
• A VFD can be used to control both the speed and torque of a
standard induction AC electric motor.
• It varies both the frequency and voltage of the AC waveform being
delivered to the motor saving money in electricity.
Basic components of a VFD:
• Input section, draws AC electric power from the utility, Rectifier
section, converts the AC into DC power.
• Inverter section, converts DC back into a controllable AC
waveform.
VFDs help to limit demand and electrical consumption of
motors by reducing the amount of energy they consume.
◦ Standard motors are constant speed and when they are
energized they run at a 100% no matter the load.
◦ Soft Start.
◦ Only use energy you need.

A variable frequency drives used in a drive
system consisting of the following three main
sub-systems:
• AC Motor.
• Controller.
• Operator Interface.
 MOTORS
3 Ø induction motor
o Most economical
o Synchronous motors may offer some advantages
 VFD CONTROLLER
Solid state electronic power conversion
Use of rectifiers and inverters to convert AC to DC to quasi-
sinusoidal AC
 INTERFACE
Commonly known as human machine interface
Operator controls
Start/stop
Adjust Speed
Displays of indication and meters
 The most common electric motor found in industrial and
commercial application is the AC induction motor. Induction
motors work by electrically inducing an electro-magnetic pole
into the rotor. The magnetic field that surrounds the rotor
appears to rotate which has the effect of pulling the rotor in
the direction of rotation. The speed of the rotation is
determined by the frequency of the applied alternating
current - change the frequncy and the rotor speed is
changed. This is the function of the variable frequency drive
(VFD or AC drive).
The speed of the rotating electric field within
the induction motor.
Synchronous Speed = 120 x frequency
no. of motor poles
• All VFD’s need a power section tha converts AC power into
DC power.
• This is called the converter bridge.
• Sometimes the front end of the VFD, the converter is
commonly a three-phase, full wave-diode bridge.
• The DC bus is the true link between the converter and inverter
sections of the drive.
• Maintenance costs can be lower.
• Save energy.
• Limit the torque.
• Water Supply Pump Application
• Conveyor Application
• Exhaust Fan Application
• Compressor Application
• Significant energy savings
• Easy setup & programming
• Better design
• Competitive edge
