Save money – install a frequency inverter
Every year, thousands of electric motors are installed to be driven directly from mains power and thus run at full speed, even when this is not necessary. This particularly applies to pump and fan operation, where regulation is often applied by throttling the amount of air.
If we look at the power needs of operating pumps and fans, it becomes apparent that even a small reduction in speed saves a lot of energy. However, motors that run in constant torque applications can also gain benefits from running at a lower speed.
Other advantages of using a frequency inverter are that starting and stopping are obviously gentler. All the mechanical parts thereby last much longer when undesirable jerking and shock-loading of the system are avoided.

Further savings
Mitsubishi Electrics frequency inverters make it possible for you to reduce operating costs even further.
Reduction of voltage at constant rotation speed
The frequency inverter reduces the voltage until the motor current begins to increase. The motor speed remains the same, while power consumption falls!
OEC - Optimised Excitation Control, is a further improvement to the motor operating conditions. Up to 10 % additional savings can be obtained with traditional U/F control!
