AC MOTOR DRIVES

A host of available functions along with the constructive features allow to use the new VF motor drives in the most diversified applications: cement, paper, chemical, petrochemical plants, waterworks and gas ducts and many others.
Careful design of the front control panel and menu configuration warrant flexible selections along with easy and clear installation and set-up of the motor drive.

EXAMPLES OF APPLICATION:

VF series motor drives can be used in a variety of applications in diversified industrial and civil fields.
  


Food processing industry 
Machinery for bread, bakery and fresh pasta, 
confectionary equipment, mixers and blenders, 
flour and liquid dispensing equipment, etc.
  


Conveyance machinery 
Product conveyor belts for warehouses, trade 
businesses, etc.
  


Pumps 
Fans, dryers, water purification systems, 
waterworks, etc.
   


Medical and fitness equipment 
Equipment for fitness centres and for healthcare.
  


Vehicle washing machines 
Automatic car washing equipment.


Commercial ironing equipment 
Automatic machines used in numerous public 
stores and service industries.


Packaging 
Automatic and semi-automatic packaging 
machines in cartons, plastic bags or cases 
or with cellophane, etc.
  

 

  


  

ENERGY SAVING
The new supervision of energy saving provides to optimise the output efficiency for the utility (pumps, fans), even with low frequency value usage. The effect of this function can be monitored by the built-in panel or by communication via protocol.


   

HIGH FREQUENCY NOISE AND HARMONIC DISTORTION 
The entire line up to 630kW has a built-in EMC filter, compliant with IEC/EN 61800-3 standards, first environment category 1, and makes it ideal for applications where there is a need to give very particular attention to irradiated disturbances towards peripheral equipment.


DC REACTOR 
Built in the 18.5 to 75kW models and to be externally installed for the 90kW model and over. It allows to drastically reduce harmonics producted by the motor drive and to improve the power factor. The DC reactor also permits to limit the current drawn by the motor drive to a maximum value of 110% of its rated current.
