The VFD Panel (Variable Frequency drive panel) also known as VFD Control Panel are designed to control the speed of electric motor and feed pump. They are widely used in drilling, pumping and other large machine applications. The VFD panels are widely used in extruder plants, rolling Mills, tube mills, paper mills, cable industry.
Adjustment of the speed of the motor is the application, which is required in all the process industries & machinery Manufacturing. Variable Frequency drive is used as an energy-saving device for some of the machines to save power during no load or it is used as the final control element of the closed-loop control application where the speed of the motor is changed to control one parameter.
SSC manufacture Variable frequency drive (VFD) Panels , these panels are also extensively tested on well defined operational parameters before being supplied to clients. SSC expertise lies in offering (variable frequency drive) panels as per customer preference including ABB and DANFOSS.
Why we use VFD Panels?
- Power switching and protection – VFD panels are designed with a circuit breaker usually, which are connected to the input line power supply to switch the panel on/off, and provide protection when short circuit or overload occurs in the circuits. In addition, VFD panels can disconnect power to ensure operator’s safety during motor maintenance.
- Adjustable speed – A frequency control potentiometer is installed on the VFD panel’s door, to transmit command signals to the motor according to the operator assigned. VFD panel has a mains switching function to ensure the system continues operation in case of the variable frequency drive failed.
- Visual control – The VFD panel has a display and operation panel on the front body, which is connected to the electrical components inside the control cabinet. It can display the panel’s operational status visually, and convenient for the operator to control the motor in actual field operations.
- Security protection – Include variable frequency drive, all other electrical components are integrated inside the VFD panel, thus reducing the impact of external environment to the electrical components, and ensure the operator safety level like reducing shock hazard rate, so it has a better safety protection function.Typical applications: water supply, air compressors, central air conditioning, port machinery, machine tools, boilers, paper machinery, food machinery, and so on.
