ESKOM Fact Sheets: Using VSDs to save Costs.
EMHEATER VSDs (Single or 3-Phase Input and 3-Phase Output) include four G-Series models (G1, G13, G2, G3 and G5) and two Z-Series Servo models (Z1 and Z3).
A Variable Speed Drive (VSD) is also called a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), Adjustable Speed Drive, Adjustable Frequency Drive, AC Drive, Microdrive or Inverter.
Using VSDs for Lowering Costs The electric motors that drive pumps on irrigation systems are extremely energy-intensive, making irrigation systems one of the largest consumers of electricity on South African farms. Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) can reduce energy consumption at … Continued
Using VSDs for Lowering Costs By virtue of their energy intensiveness, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for a large percentage of companies’ energy costs. Continued misuse can dramatically impact on the effectiveness of companies’ energy-saving projects and … Continued
Using VSDs for Lowering Costs Many applications in the oil, gas and petrochemical industries rely on motor driven pumps and pumping systems that are energy-intensive. Installing Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) on motor driven equipment can be an effective energy and … Continued
Using VSDs for Lowering Costs Because of the growing consciousness of the enormous challenges of feeding the world’s expanding population in future, the concepts “farm to the fork” and “farm for the future” are extremely important. Both concepts place the … Continued
