Energy savings
March 1st 2010 Parker Hannifin has launched a new
family of AC drives
that allow energy
efficient permanent
magnet motors to be
used in a wide range
of pump, fan and
compressor
applications.
By using algorithm
control based on
motor voltage and current output,
the new AC650S Drive enables
standard permanent magnet motors
to be used in closed loop
applications, without the need for
additional sensors.
Using the AC650S Drives to
switch from induction to
permanent magnet motors
can cut energy consumption
by up to 12% while
reducing the
combined drive and
motor envelope by as
much as 75%, says the
company. |
